.... and what he has become, which is, for the most part, a bum. After failing to deal adequately with his feelings, he escapes into a time when things were better for his family. It is not uncommon for one to think of better times at low points in their life in order to cheer themselves up so that they are able to deal with the problems they encounter, but Willy Lowman takes it one step further. His refusal to accept reality is so strong that in his mind he is transported back in time to relive one of the happier days of his life. It was a time when no one argued, Willy and Linda were younger .....

.... what Hamlet holds to be true. If Hamlet’s given motivation for killing the king is legitimate, then Claudius should die at about Act 3. Because Hamlet’s actions do not correspond with his given reasoning, one is forced to look for an alternate explanation for Hamlet’s behavior. In doing so, one will come to the conclusion that Hamlet is driven by forces other than what is obvious to the reader, as well as Hamlet himself. Given this example, one must denounce the assumption that Hamlet is aware of the forces that motivate him, and understand that Hamlet’s true motivation is uncon .....

.... be as sharp as will:/ My stronger guilt defeats my strong intent .” (3.3. 37-41) However, he still had no intentions of making things right and wished to further carry out his plans as ruler of Denmark, even though he had many opportunities to re-establish the balance. He chose to continue on with his evil deeds, and by doing so, ended the lives of all the victims that were caught in his destructive path. Thus, Claudius was, undoubtedly, the main character who brought upon the upheaval of Denmark. Nothing, not even the possibility of forgiveness from the heavens, prevented him fro .....

.... 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 death, then Laertes, Polonius' son, arrives on the scene enraged and ready to kill Hamlet for what he's done, and just when you thought things couldn't get any worse, unbeknownst to Hamlet, Claudius has been plotting to kill him. Talk about your bad days. A duel takes place between Hamlet and Laertes where Laertes, using a poison-tipped sword, cuts Hamlet, thus giving way .....

.... and lies. Not a single man speaks his mind, nor addresses his purpose clearly. As Polonius puts it so perfectly: "And thus do we of wisdom and of reach / By indirections find directions out" Act 2, Scene 2, Lines 71-3 The many falsehoods and deceptions uttered in Hamlet are expressed through eloquent, formal, poetic language (iambic pentameter), tantamount to an art form. If deceit is a painted, ornate subject then, its foil of truth is simple and unvarnished. Accordingly, when the pretenses of illusion are discarded in Act 2, Scene 2, the language is written in direct prose. Addressing Ros .....

.... are being advertised on TV. Since Prohibition the hard liquor industry voluntarily agreed not to advertise their products, first on radio in 1936, and of TV in 1948. However, the industry is being faced with declining sales. Their competitors such as the beer and wine industries have grown. The sales of beer and wine have increased dramatically, leaving the hard liquor industry behind. The main reason for this occurrence is due to the fact that these industries have tapped into the resource of advertising on TV. Consequently, this has prompted the hard liquor industry to reevaluate its .....

.... showed many features that attributed to her reversed gender role. Her " obdurate strength of will and masculine firmness give her ascendancy over her husband's faltering virtue".3 She was considered great because once she had it in her mind what she wanted her unflinching determination in getting it was superior to all others. "The magnitude of her resolution almost covers the magnitude of her guilt"4 At first Lady Macbeth would seem to hold a resemblance to the witches in her personality. Both pushed Macbeth to become a murderer and both had completely deserted any feminism in their r .....

.... characteristic that distinguished him from the rest of society in which he lived in. Although he was persecuted, beaten, and ridiculed at. He understood his characteristics and understood why the boys hated him It was fear! 3. I respect Jeremy's caring. Like Christ himself, he wouldn't fight or use any sort of violence to resolve problems. Jeremy would speak his words of wisdom, or use his divine powers of mental stability and force to express a point. He would, without hurting anyone, prove a point. This characteristic made us create a field of empathy for the boy. 4. Jeremy showed h .....

.... Ophelia earlier in the scene how deeply he loved her, but here he has changed completely, saying that he had never loved her. With in this quote he slips in that Ophelia should go to a nunnery. This is his just cause for his maddness. He tries to get Ophelia to forget him and go to the nunnery so that she can be safe, and away from all his troubles that would soon come. Here we see his justcause as well as his foreshadowing for things to come. Like many Princes, Hamlet has been highly educated in Whittenburg, England. Here he has learned to think logically and not to act or think on .....

.... two houses. When he says "Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he and I shall watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to Mantua." (Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything will be all right. Unfortunately, for all his good intentions the play still ends in tragedy. Friar Lawrence is a man who is not afraid to take risks when he feels it is neccesary to help someone. For example in Act 2, Scene 6, when he marries Romeo and Juliet, he is risking his reputation as a Friar so he can help the two lovers. Also, when he says .....
