Rosencrantz And Guildenstern King Of Denmark
840 wordsAppearence vs Reality Possibly the best piece of writing ever done by William Shakespeare, Hamlet, is a classic example of a tragedy. In all tragedies the hero suffers, and usually dies at the end. Romeo and Juliet commit suicide, Brutus falls on his sword, and like them Hamlet dies by getting cut with a poison tipped sword. The theme that remains constant throughout the play is appearance versus reality. Things within the play appear to be true and honest but in reality are polluted with evil. ...

Amp Quot Iambic Pentameter
1,588 wordsIn order for a poem to be classified as a sonnet, it must meet certain structural requirements, and Sonnet 138, & quot; When my love swears that she is made of truth, & quot; is a perfect example. Shakespeare employs the traditional rhyme scheme of the English sonnet, the poem is made up of three quatrains and a rhyming couplet, and iambic pentameter is the predominant meter. However, it would be an error to approach this poem as a traditional Shakespearean love sonnet. It is a 'love' po...

Old Man W Enormous Wings
1,187 wordsBy Gabriel Garcia Marquez The fictional tale entitled A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings is an intriguing story which is expressed very well in the title.

I find the story to be somewhat interesting; however, it isn't exactly hard to put down. The one thing about this story that stands out the most, is the author's use of tone. This is the main aspect of the story that j...
