making the journalist succumb to the corporate needs of the newspaper. The
three major newspapers of Toronto (Toronto Sun, Toronto Star and The Globe &
Mail) discord in their journalistic techniques for the purpose of selling their

"News is more often made rather than gathered. And it is made on the basis of

... your philosophy" (1.5.166-168). This reveals Horatio's attitude to
the audience. It shows that Horatio only believes in what scholars say. Study
is his only purpose I life. He is admired and used by others for his knowledge,
The audience becomes aware of this admiration when the soldiers use Horatio
the speak with the ghost. Marcellus says "Thou art a scholar; speak to it,
Horatio" ( 1.1.42). The soldiers need Horatio because he is an educated
man. As a man of thought Horatio has a significant role in helping society.
Fortinbras is a man of action. He takes action before he thinks about the

Oedipus' Destiny
... downfall.
Oedipus’ tragic destiny started when he was born. From the day he was born, Oedipus could not choose how he wants to live. He can only live the life that was set up for him. An oracle told his real parents – Laius and Jocasta that Laius would die at the hands of his own child. Out of fear, they pinned Oedipus’ ankles and handed him to a shepherd to abandon him to death. “ Jocasta: … An oracle came to Laius ” (p. 17) to “…to cast upon a deserted mountain path – die.”(p. 17). But instead of killing the infant, the shepherd gave him to another shepherd who then gave Oedipus to the Ki ...

The Merchant Of Venice: Shylock - An In-depth Character Analysis
... had such a magnanimous spirit, that he even offered Antonio, who
had abused him terribly, a loan, free of interest. Shylock was willing to loan
money to one who totally ruined him in public, on terms that were nicer than his
normal business terms. This kind, forgiving heart can be seen in Act 1 Scene 3
beginning with line 148:
“Why, look how you storm ! I would be friends with you and
have your love, forget the names that you have stained me
with, supply your present needs and take no doit of usance
for my moneys, and you'll not hear me! This is kind I offer.”

All My Sons: Miller's Chief Criticism Of American Society
... he did it for his family. The second example is that Sue would rather
Jim make allot of money, and not do medical research- which is what he
really wanted to do. The third example is Jim's abdication of his pursuit
of medical research do to the lack of profit involved.
In his play "All My Sons," Miller makes it apparent that society in
general values money and profit more than human life. He shows this by his
portrayal of Keller. Keller ships out cracked cylinder heads, aware that in
flight they will cause planes to crash, to save his business from being
shut down. Furthermore, he goes on to allow t ...

The Tragedy Of Hamlet
... out plans devised by the king or queen to discover
the nature of Hamlet's madness. Being the king's Lord Chamberlain, it is
his duty to obey the king and queen's wishes and it is this loyalty that
eventually proves to be fatal for him. An example of how Polonius'
innocent involvement with the royalty results in his death can be found at
the beginning of Act III, scene iv, when Hamlet stabs him while he is
hiding behind the arras in Gertrude's room. This shows how Polonius, a man
unaware of the true nature of the situation he is in, is killed by a member
of the royalty during the execution of one of their schem ...

LADY MACBETH IS WORSE THAN MACBETH
... prophecies, she immediately thinks that she and Macbeth will
have to kill king Duncan. She also decides that Macbeth is too nice to kill
the king, sayin that he "is too ful o' the milk of human kindness" and when
she hears the Duncan will visit their castle that night, she immediately
appeals to the evil spirits, to (ironically) give her the strength to kill
the king. In Act 1, Scene 7, Macbeth is doubtfull of Lady Macbeth's plot
to kill the king. He doesn't think that he will be able to live with the
guilt of killing his king while he is staying under his very roof, and then
decides that he will not kill the king. ...

A Midsummer Night's Dream: Role Of Puck
... by the name
Robin Goodfellow. The audience can only see this ‘Robin Goodfellow' side of
Puck when he is trying to fix something he disrupted, hence the name Goodfellow
When compared to Oberon, King of the Fairies and Titania, Queen of the
Fairies and the remaining fairies of the play, Puck does not seem to fit in as
well. While Oberon and Titania belong to the forest and the world of dainty
fairies, a small village setting seems more appropriate for Puck. He is the
type of fairy that likes to be around mortals and cause them trouble, as opposed
to other fairies. This is why Puck's little job with a love p ...

Macbeth: Lady MacBeth

"Wouldst thou have that which thou esteem'st the ornament
of life, and live a coward in thine own esteem,"
She states that if she was MacBeth and did not jump at this perfect opportunity,
that if a child, being fed at her breast, where as Duncan is, king, she would
tear it from her and "dash'd the brains out" to have the opportunity MacBeth
does. This shows how mad and sadistic she was. She had absolutely no self-
conscience, and thought nothing about the wrong they were soon to commit.
Later on, after the murders, she, unlike MacBeth, still shows no signs
of a conscience. She is v ...

Othello Composition: The Character Of Iago
... to have her as his own. Iago says about Rodriego in Act I, Scene III, line 355, “Thus do I ever make my fool purse.” By playing on his hopes, Iago is able to swindle money and jewels from Rodriego, making himself a substantial profit, while using Rodriego to forward his other goals. He also thinks quick on his feet and is able to improvise whenever something unexpected occurs. When Cassio takes hold of Desdemona’s hand before the arrival of the Moor Othello, Iago says “With as little a web as this I will ensnare as great a fly as Cassio” (Act II, Scene I, line 163). His cunning and craftiness ma ...
