.... understand the true extent of his decision to divide the kingdom. In the same scene, Lear also show the audience his failure to be a father, by using irrelevant judgements to divide land. "Which of you shall say doth love us most?" Lear asks his three daughters. To please Lear, Gonerill and Regan speak words of flattery and Cordelia, so 'true', says "I love you according to my bond." To hear this, Lear praises Gonerill and Regan by reward of land, but punishes Cordelia by "disclaim my paternal care, property and propinquity of blood." This demonstrates Lear's lack of understanding as a .....

.... "easy street" they've been riding in high school. The movie teaches that you need to be able to put up with the arrogance of the rich and uppity people that attend an Ivy League school. They are very expensive and most students come from wealthy families. "The Paper Chase" teaches the viewer that law school is very stressful; it is a way of life not just going to school; and you must have what it takes just to survive law school. The things I liked most about Mr. Kingsfield was well organized, and that he was a difficult teacher. Difficult teachers usually make you learn for yourself. .....

.... was baptized on May 26, 1583. In 1585 Anne Shakespeare gave birth to twins. A boy named Hamnet and a girl named Judith. Hamnet did not survive. Shakespeare arrived in London about 1588 and by 1592 and had success as an actor and playwright. He secured the patronage of Henry Wriothesley, 3rd Earl of Southampton. William Shakespeare’s professional life in London was marked by a number of financially advantageous arrangements that permitted him to share in the profits of his acting company. his plays were given special presentation at the courts of Queen Elizabeth 1 and King James .....

.... His constant hesitation is attributed to rationalization. It is his hesitation, rationalization, excessive thinking, all combined, to almost literally become his fatal flaw. It is his indecisiveness that almost kills him. Although from the very opening of the play, Hamlet recognizes that it is his filial duty to avenge the murder of his father by killing the murderer, his uncle, he does not perform this duty until he is actually pressed to it by circumstance, and until it is at the point of death himself. “Now might I do it pat, now he is paying; And now I’ll do’t. And so he go .....

.... be almost talking himself out of doing his job. One of Hamlet's most renown traits is his over-analysis of conversational topics and situations in which action must be taken. An example of his over-analytical nature is apparent in his speech in act one, scene four, line 13. He begins his speech quite normally, replying with a simple answer to Horatio's inquiry but then his thoughts begin to wander and he starts to analyze and philosophize about topics unrelated to Horatio's question. Another trait of Hamlet is the way he procrastinates. For example, in act two, scene two, line 603 he c .....

.... told. "… the devil hath power T'assume a pleasing shape" Hamlet thought that the spirit may be trying to mislead him in the quest to find his father's killer. Characters of the play become unsure of their intentions due to the odd twists of fortune that they are dealt. Characters in the play that were so sure of their decisions became uncertain. This uncertainty arises when the plans of characters are somehow altered. The alterations change the fate of many characters. Polonius was killed in the wake of Hamlet's plan to find his father's killer. Hamlet had no intention to kill anyone tha .....

.... my office". The irony of this statement is that in the next line he says that he does not know it for a fact, but because he suspects it, he will act as if for certain! This gives me the impression from the beginning, that Iago is insane and exceedingly paranoid, going so far as to set up a cache of murders, just on the suspicion of adultery. Iago was also jealous of the open and loving relationship that Othello had. When Othello and Desdemona are reunited after the journey to Cyprus, he kisses her in full view of everyone. Iago treats his wife as an object and she knows it. In Act th .....

.... movies in discussion deal with restless youngsters wanting to leave their home planet to see the galaxy. The young men urge to experience everything life and existence have to offer. They firmly believe that what they want to encounter, lies far away from their home. Our protagonist in The Phantom Menace, Anakin, yearns to eventually be a pilot who leads a squadron of fighters. He satisfies that longing at home by racing pods. Although he possesses great skill at this dangerous sport, competing in races does not fulfill his desires enough. The protagonist in A New Hope, Luke, wants to .....

.... choice, should he let the witches prophecies realize themselves, or should he take steps to achieve them. Under the cloaking shadows of his skins, Macbeth hides his one weakness-that is ambition. His wife knows of his ambition and stirs to act on it. She calls him a “coward” and states that in killing the King, Macbeth will “be so much more than man.” Macbeth relents, telling his wife to “mock the time with fairest show,” and kills the king. In doing so, Macbeth unrobed himself of all that is good in human soul-kindness, honor, and love. Macbeth became so blind by his new ro .....

.... thought that whoever killed their father would come back to kill them next. Now that Macbeth was king he felt more and more paranoid about what he had done. Macbeth hired murderers to kill Banquo and his son. The murderers killed Banquo, but his son escaped. This meant that the prophecy that Banquo's son would become king could still come true. Again Macbeth made another big mistake. At the dinner party he kept mentioning that he wished that Banquo was there. Finally Banquo's ghost appears and sits in Macbeth's seat at the table. Macbeth keeps screaming at the ghost until it disap .....
