Pound Of Flesh Plot Of The Play
1,019 wordsPortia: The Best Female Shakespearean Part? Portia is one of Shakespeare's best parts for an actress as, apart from being one of the central characters within the main plot of the play; she displays great wit and intelligence.

The misery they have suffered, while vexing her, has not made her truly repentant. However, as retribution draws ever nearer, she can no longer silence her outraged conscience or control the bloody horrors of her sub-conscience. Shakespeare does not permit the audience to see her in the process of decline, or in any contemplation of her guilt. Her remorse is not for her misdeeds but for t...

Damsel In Distress Millers Tale
1,837 wordsIn his The Millers Tale Chaucer presents a side of the courtly love tradition never seen before. His characters are average middle class workers rather than elite nobility. There is an interesting comparison between the Millers characters and those in two of Marie de Frances lai's that share very close plot lines.

609 wordsShakespeare's theatrical works are generally categorized into three all encompassing groups: the uplifting comedy, the lamented tragedy, and the excruciatingly boring history play. However, things can get a little confusing when you end up with a comedy like Measure for Measure or a tragedy like Titus Andronicus.
