Authorial Opinion Of Wife Bath
521 wordsThe character of the Wife of Bath is clearly feminist. She indicates this by her extreme ideas of female maistre and statements such as I have the power during al my life upon his proper body, and nought he, which is extremely feminist.

Macbeth Macbeth Lady Macbeth
1,831 wordsWhat are the main sources of evil in the play? How does Shakespeare get this across to an audience? The witches are the main evil in the play even though they only appear 4 times in the story, but each time they appear they always create an evil atmosphere.

Importance Of Being Earnest End Of The Play
1,797 wordsSatire in The Importance of Being Earnest After reading The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, one would possibly realize that this piece of writing is a conservative 19 th century farce.

Wilde's parody always works at two levels. On the one hand, the writer ridicules the behaviors of the high society while on the...
