What good is it if his parents don’t get involved in his extracurricular activities. He goes out all night doing wrong, and his parents think he’s out working, c’mon!! In today’s society, many parents are at the source of why a child may start to commit crimes. They are not involved, or in some cases just don’t care enough about their children to teach them the rights and wrongs of society. Alex seemed to find t ...

... the potion, even if he did not know that he was. And Lady Capulet was not helping the situation when she said: “Talk not to me, for I’ll not speak a word. Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee.� (3.5.303-204), she was only showing Juliet that she did not care, even though it is her responsibility as a parent to be there for her daughter. A responsibility that she did not act upon. The Nurse is another example of someone who, in authority, did not show responsibility. She encourages Juliet to continue to see Romeo secretly, even after he has been banished. She even says to Juliet: “I’ll find Rome ...

... the individual spying on his conversation with Gertrude is Claudius("Nay, I know not: is it the King?" Act 3, Scene 4 line 28). Consequently, Hamlet consumed with rage automatically thrusts out attempting to kill Claudius, but instead strikes Polonius. Hamlet’s and Laertes’s imprudent actions are incited by fury and frustration. Sudden anger prompts both Hamlet and Laertes to act spontaneously, giving little thought to the consequences of their actions. Hamlet and Laertes share a different but deep love and concern for Ophelia. Before his departure for France Laertes provides lengthy advice to Ophelia perta ...

... for her ensuing madness. The murder of Polonius is the greatest among many factors that were contributed by Hamlet to the somber fate of Ophelia. A prelude, composed of warnings from Polonius and Laertes, is tactfully set up by Shakespeare during Ophelia's initial appearances in the play, aiding in the preparation for her subsequent mental deterioration. Pol. What is between you? Give me up the truth. Oph. He hath, ny lord, of late made many tenders Of his affection to me. Pol. Affection, puh! You speak like a green girl Unsifted in such perilous circumstance. Do you believe his "tenders" as ...

... greatest creative achievement. (Janson,427-35) A classic example of typical art within this period is of “the first and undeniably the greatest French Romantic landscape painter, Camille Corot.� One of Corots one of the landscape paintings, which is alike to Gericault’s is “View of Rome: The Bridge and Castel San’t Angelo with Cupola Of St. Peters. Corot, throughout the course of a two-year trip in Italy, where he scouted the countryside of around Rome, painted many of his landscapes. Romantics focused on nature, but for Gericault this was true, but he also understood a romantic had to go to “extrao ...

... thinks and formulates in order to make sure the ghost is truthful. On the other end of the revenge spectrum is Laertes. As soon as Laertes hears of his father Polonius's murder, the rampageous son rushes back to Denmark and, with a crowd of followers, burst into the castle prepared to kill his father's murderer. Laertes, in great contrast to Hamlet, takes immediate action. Finally, Fortinbras represents the middle path of revenge. He does not miss the knock of opportunity because of over analysis, nor does he act too swiftly to realize whom he should attack. In the end of the play, Fortinbras arrives just as ev ...

... a hero has an obstacle or barrier in the way of his journey. Oedipus had many obstacles such as: the Sphinx, the prophecy, and living the prophecy. Another part of the heroic journey involves "dying as an adolescent and being reborn as a man. (Campbell)" This happens to Oedipus when he leaves Corinth and runs to Thebes. He goes from boy to king. Oedipus intended on avoiding letting the prophecy come true so he escaped from what he thought was his mother and father because he cared. In doing this he kills his father of birth, and then he frees the people of Thebes from the plague of the Sphinx and inherits the ...

... had no other options. She had to cast the play to actors who could depict the characters, not simply to people who were Indians. It would not be a play without actors portraying other people. I do not believe that there was a positive or negative effect on the performance due to casting. The actors learned to look and to act like Indians which is what characterization is all about. Another reason to cast Eurocentric actors is there are many characters in the play. It would be very difficult to cast Indians in every role. Martinez even double and triple cast to accommodate for the many roles. This is a commo ...

... King Lear, Lear is plagued emotionally. He feels that he has lost the love of his favorite daughter Cordelia, and he feels the harsh hatred of his two evil daughters. At the conclusion of the play, his sanity is restored but he has suffered tremendously in an emotional manner at the hands of Regan and Goneril. In Othello, Brabantio goes through emotional suffering when he must succumb to his daughter's wishes. Desdemona also goes through emotional suffering when she is accused by Othello of cheating on him when he is convinced of this by Iago. In The Tempest, the theme of purification through suffering ...
