"The Other" And "Taxi Driver": A Comparison
Number of words: 644 - Number of pages: 3

.... in "Taxi Driver",we see two good examples of "The Other". In "Taxi Driver" we see that Travis Bickle still has an identity forming problem, or I might say that he has unconsciously formed an identity during his childhood, but he's trying to find it. It was his curiosity about his identity that was giving him problems to sleep. Basically, his identity should be formed based on his father's identity, but nothing is obvious. Whoever his (Travis) model was, planted the confidence in Travis to form his identity. For example, if our parents don't tell us in early our childhood about a certain qu .....

.... that he may one day become "king hereafter"; since "two truths are told", only one is left. Banquo senses Macbeth's ill-concealed emotions, asking him, "Why do you start, and seem to fear/Things that do sound so fair?" The answer is revealed in this soliloquy when Macbeth tries to reassure himself that "this supernatural soliciting/Cannot be ill." Then he confesses that he fears that "horrid image" which "doth unfix my hair." In other words, for the first time, Macbeth sees Duncan's murder as the quickest way to reach his goal. The "horrid image" is that of himself killing Duncan. H .....

Number of words: 1224 - Number of pages: 5

.... of decent of Macbeth from hero to butcher. Macbeth can only be brave when he knows what he is doing and feels justified in doing it.

In Act2 scene 2 after having committed the murder he is hysterical. In his fear he .....

Number of words: 1310 - Number of pages: 5

.... into misery for either children, a profound sense of tragic suffering, and a strong catharsis of pity and fear. In Electra, both Orestes and Electra can be viewed as tragic figures, however Orestes is the better choice according to Aristotle. Orestes is the son of a king and is a prince, thus he is of a high birth. He has ethos, or a sense of right and wrong, in that he recognizes the injustices that have been done unto his father Agamemnon, his sister Electra, and himself by both Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus. Orestes is basically a good person in that he is motivated by justi .....

.... his wife's persuasion. He agrees that they must "catch the nearest way" (17), and kill Duncan that night.

Number of words: 1058 - Number of pages: 4

.... out to be taking the role as their mother. Men left home and married for many reasons, including getting away from their bossy mothers.

.... or is it just what people want to see? In a recent survey, violent scenes in nonfictional shows went up 150% and in fictional shows they went up 39%. The overall violence went up 41%. What about the V-chip? The chip that would block out violence and sex on TV. But is that offending people's freedom of speech? Who would choose to use the V-chip? The government can't force people to use it, so how could they re-enforce its use? In conclusion, I think it is almost impossible to erase violence by ridding the world of TV violence. There's too much violence and banning violence o .....
