... It was confusing and unorganized. The shows were boring any way. There were a few things I enjoyed (when I knew what was going on) but most of the time I just had to pinch myself to keep from falling asleep. The performers looked good but the way I see it is anyone who does not have a good meaning of Mexican history is lost. I mean there were elementary schools there, do you think they knew what was going on? All the performances consisted of 1: Azteca - Ceremony of the lighting of fire, 2: Ladanza De Los Queteales- dedicated to multicolor bird named Quetzal, 3: Festompanortena- series of dances brought by French an ...

... has his joyous life ripped away from him when his father, Hamlet Sr., suddenly passes away. Though originally thought to be of natural causes, it is later revealed to him through his father's ghost, that dear old dad was murdered by his Step-Father, and also his Uncle, Claudius. Vowing revenge upon his Uncle/Dad, Hamlet begins to mentally falter and eventually, is in such a wild rage that he accidentally kills Polonious believing him to be his father. Hilarity ensues. Ophelia, Hamlet's love interest, commits suicide/dies (that's up for debate elsewhere) after going slightly mad from the impact of her father's de ...

... and Jocasta, her cursed family history suggests that she too is subject to the curse. The acts of Oedipus are contrary to the gods and the deities must reconcile all products of his deeds. Thus, Antigone is doomed from the moment she is born, her acts of civil disobedience are just the strings the gods use to manipulate their puppet. Next, Creon’s pronouncement that Polyneices must not be buried pits Antigone against earthly law, and it is the will of the gods that she bury her brother because that is the only just action. Antigone, from the moment from the declaration, is destined to die because it is h ...

... profit. All, except for one. Sir Thomas More is a man who subconsciously is a slave to his conscience. He executes selfless acts in order to do what he knows is legal, and what he thinks is right. He is one of very few people who have died with their integrity intact. He is a special man, who is steadfast in upholding his principles, even when death breathes down his neck. Sir Thomas More truly is a paragon. One character in the play particularly concerned with his goals, regardless of the path he must take to reach them is Thomas Cromwell. Cromwell is the personification of pragmatism and is willing to do anyth ...

... her opinion and eventually free the other characters from such a manipulative man. It is in the first scene of the play that we see Dorine's character traits developing. The quote from Madame Parnelle in scene one states "Girl, you talk too much, and I'm afraid you're far too saucy for a lady's maid. You push in everywhere"(21). From the start it is apparent that Dorine is an outspoken character, and by doing this she is clearly putting herself out on a limb because she is dissimilar to the other women of her time. I believe that it is here that Moliere foreshadows the importance of Dorine's a character. Later o ...

... see his "excellent good friends" (2.2.227) with whom he grew up. Hamlet is also delighted to meet with the Players. But this is where all the similarities end. In his conversations with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Hamlet becomes suspicious of the purpose of his old friends' visit and he is perceptive enough to see through the outer disguise into the interior motives. He forces them to reveal that they have been sent by the King to find out what is causing Hamlet's "transformation" ( 2.2.5). Hamlet admits his sanity by telling his good friends that his "uncle- father and aunt mother are deceived." (2.2.348) Why d ...

... years of careful planning in order to create an environment similar to Hitler's. The doctor devoted his entire life to his research, which dated back to the time of the Nazi camps. His main goal was to clone the genes of Hitler and implant them in newborns. He performed many types of crude experiments on the prisoners to test how much pain one could endure and what would improve the human race. Hitler believed that a perfect human race consisted of humans with blonde hair and blue eyes. Since the doctor believed in the ideas of Hitler, he genetically engineered prisoners to have these qualities, along with the ...

... mishap, and not fate itself. One of the most noted instances where fate is blamed for a mishap is when Romeo cries out the he supposedly is fortune's fool. He claims that fate has brought on Mercutio's death, and has lead him to kill Tybalt in revenge. In Act 3, Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo is seen to be upset at Mercutio's death and predicts that the “days black fate on more days doth depend.� (III, I, 118) Tybalt then re-enters and Romeo becomes more upset that Tybalt is triumphant with Mercutio being dead (III, I, 121). As Romeo becomes overwhelmed with Mercutio's death and Tybalt's joy over it, he ...

... were the family of King Fortinbras, the family of Polonius, and the family of King Hamlet. The heads of each of these families are all slaughtered within the play. Fortinbras, King of Norway, was killed by King Hamlet; slain by sword during a man to man battle. "àour valiant Hamlet-for so this side of our known world esteem'd him-did slay this Fortinbras." This entitled King Hamlet to the land that was possessed by Fortinbras because it was written in a seal'd compact. Polonius was an advisor to the King, and father to Laertes and Ophelia. He was nosy and arrogant, and he did not trust his children. He was ki ...
