Romeo And Juliet: Tragedy Of A Family Or A City?
... one way or another involved in and responsible for what
happens." I agree with this quote. In the rest of this essay you will read why.
One reason why it is a tragedy of a city is because almost everyone is
involved. Almost the whole city attended the party which the Capulets held. Even
Romeo attended the party. Now the audience of the play knows that even the
city's citizens are involved.
The next reason is when Benvolio and Tybalt exchange insults. At first
they just argue. Then within a blink of an eye, you see masses of people
fighting. People come from all sides. To me, it looked as if the who ...

Hamlet: To Kill Or Not To Kill
... revenge. He would place death on the killer.
“Your loves, as mine to you./ Farewell./ My father’s spirit-in arms!/ All is not well./ I doubt some foul play./ Would the night were come./ Till then, sit still, my soul./{Foul} deeds will rise, though all the earth o’erwhelm them, to men’s eyes.”(Hamlet 1.3.276)
The only problem is that Hamlet would find it difficult to gather the strength to kill. He had the chance and passed it up. However, to him this seemed to be the moral thing to do. He would wait until Claudius had sins on his soul. Why put a killer in heaven. Claudius quickly learns that Hamlet wan ...

Romeo And Juliet: Tybalt's Misinterpretation Of Romeo's Cowardice
... can lead to
disaster in the end.
Misfortunes occurred due to Tybalt and Mercutio's misinterpretation
of Romeo's reluctance to fight. Tybalt came to pick a fight with Romeo and
instead of getting what he wanted, Romeo continued to hold back because of
his marriage to Juliet. Tybalt continued to push for conflict not
understanding Romeo's unwillingness. Mercutio also misunderstands Romeo's
reluctance to fight and decides to stand up for him by challenging Tybalt
to a dual. Tybalt and Mercutio end up fighting. When Romeo stepped in
between the fighting Mercutio believed that the dual had ended. And as

Macbeth: Tragic Hero
... the Prince of Cumberland, Macbeth decided on the murder of Duncan.
When Duncan arrived at Inverness, Macbeth controled his ambition for the
time being and did not kill Duncan. The failing of his decision was soon
reflected by Lady Macbeth who called him a coward. From then on, after the
murder of Duncan, Macbeth entered into a life of evil.
Since he overcomed his good nature, he no longer needed to be with his
friend Banquo. He wanted to protect his ambition, by killing the king, and
now he killed Banquo, due to the prediction of what the witches said about
Banquo's son becoming the king. Macbeth wanted to ...

Hamlet: Growing Pains
... and give him the room he needs to grow.
The Hamlet that Shakespeare begins to develop in Act I is a typical
mortal, bowed down by his human infirmities and by a disgust of the evils in a
world which has led him to the brink of suicide. Hamlet voices his thoughts on
the issue: ‘O that this too too solid flesh would melt...' (I. ii. 135). He
is prevented from this drastic step only by a faith which teaches him that God
has ‘fix'd/ His canon ‘gainst self-slaughter' (I. ii. 131-2). To Hamlet appears
his dead father's spirit, and he must continue to live in the ‘unweeded garden,
/ That grows to se ...

Hamlet's Inability To Decipher Right From Wrong
... tells Polonius, her father, that Hamlet has visited her closet and left it in disarray.
“Polonius: How now, Ophelia, what’s the matter?
Ophelia: Alas, my lord, I have been so affrighted.
Polonius: With what, i’th’ name of God?
Ophelia: My lord, as I was sewing in my chamber,
Lord Hamlet, with his doublet all unbraced,
No hat upon his head, his stockings fouled,
Ungartered, and down-gyvèd to his ankle,
Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other,
And with a look so piteous and purport
As if he had been loosèd out of hell
To speak of horrors, he comes before me.”
According to Ophelia, ...

care if she died.
Those who are infatuated want only sex in a relationship. In act
2 scene 2, the balcony scene, Romeo says “O wilt thou leave me unsatisfied?”
when they next meet they want only sex before they knew each others name. When
they saw each other to be married at Friar Lawerence to be married they couldn't
get off each other. The only reason Romeo went to Manteca was to sneak into
Juliet's room to spend the night.
People who are in love are usually friends first. Romeo and
Juliet knew each other two days before they were married. when they first met

Characterization to it, as does the movie.
George and Lennie always wanted to own a farm of their own, where
they could work for themselves and be self dependent. They didn't have
enough money at the time to start the farm, but they did have the willpower.
The only way they could think of raising money is to go to work on another
farm and to save up for their dream.
At the new farm they worked on Lennie proved very quickly what a
good hand he was. What he was told he would do, and, he could do twice
what the other men could do. Many people said things about him. They said
how he had ...

of the dead King. The brother would be the one who would betray Hamlet.
Horatio, a loyal friend to Hamlet, was on night watch outside the castle,

given out that, sleeping in my orchard,/ a serpent stung me² (1.5, 36 ...
