Hamlet: A Sane Man
... shall,/With arms
encumbered thus, or this headshake ,/Or by pronouncing of some doutful
phrase,/As "Well,well,we know," or "We could an if we/would,"/Or "If we list to
speak," or "There be an if they/might,"/Or such ambiguous giving-out, to
note/That you know of me-this do swear,/(I,v,190-201).Hamlet states that from
this point forward I may act weird but to ignore my acts of madness for they are
just that, acts, and are in no way a sign of true madness. Only a sane and
rational person could devise such a plan as to act insane to convince others
that he is insane when he actually has complete control over his ps ...

Essay On Flowers And Shadows
... who's vengeful plot brought him out
of the shadows, where his controlled madness might have fooled the likes
of Jonan for a while, but the latter's paranoia finally caught on and
killed Sowho and itself; putting a rest the destruction and curse laid
upon the poor factory workers and opening a broad new scale of
possibilities that might (in long terms) help tip the edge of demeaning
business ethics in the Nigerian society.
Anyone who read Macbeth would agree that it's quite parallel to
Flowers & Shadows. Even thought the books where written by two different
authors at different time periods; the depicte ...

Macbeth: A Tale Of Two Theories
... the play seems to imply that Macbeth is indeed responsible for his own
actions which are provoked by an unwillingness to listen to his own conscience,
the witches, and his ambition.
First, Macbeth ignores the voice of his own psyche. He knows what he is doing is
wrong even before he murders Duncan, but he allows Lady Macbeth and greed to
cloud his judgement. In referring to the idea of the murder of Duncan, Macbeth
first states,"We will proceed no further in this business"(I.vii.32). Yet,
after speaking with Lady Macbeth he recants and proclaims,"I am settled, and
bend up/Each corporal agent to this terrible feat"(I ...

Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire: Tragic And Comic Elements
... play contradict the sole role of tragedy and leaves the reader pondering the true nature of the work, that being whether it is a tragedy with accidental comic incidences or a comedy with weak melodramatic occurrences. It has been said that the “double mask of tragicomedy reveals the polarity of the human condition.” The contrariety of forces in the work serves to enforce a sense of both reality and drama that are present in everyday human life. The comic elements in the play serve as a form of determined self-preservation just as the tragic elements add to the notion of self-destruction. This is the true natu ...

... smoking or drinking.
You see a camel wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket, or the Marlboro Man on
his horse, and you think, "Hey they're pretty cool," so decide to start smoking.
How many times have you heard, "Here's that frog commercial," and went running
to the television to see what they were doing now? You might start thinking
that they are cool, so go and try their product, which is just the thing the
advertisement is trying to do.
Popular TV series also play a role as bad influences. Many shows have
the main character smoking or drinking. Take Rosanne, for instance; the opening
scene shows her sitting ...

... shows his guilt in different forms.
The first reference of blood is one of honour, and occurs when Duncan
sees the injured sergeant and says "What bloody man is that?". This is
symbolic of the brave fighter who been injured in a valiant battle for his
country. In the next passage, in which the sergeant says "Which smok'd
with bloody execution", he is referring to Macbeth's braveness in which his
