Struggle Between Good Wuthering Heights And Thrushcross Grange
1,579 words
Since the dawn of human thought, man has sought to
define the relationships between all things
surrounding him. He categorizes every living
creature, labels every natural element and names
every phenomenon. He then connects each object to
another with a line and draws the line back to
himself. This way, he feels omnipotent,
confidently grasping the essence of his world in
his hands. Such behavior seems to have peaked in
the nineteenth century when many intellectuals
around the world were pre-occ...

Mr And Mrs Thrushcross Grange

Bronte wrote a horrifying story of deceit,
unrequited love, and ghosts, but at the same time,
she wrote a bittersweet narration of the tangled
web of two families. These families, the Linton's
and the Earnshaw's, were intertwined through a
series of marriages and love affairs, and had a

Devises A Plan Edgar Linton
1,470 words
Love is an affection of warm attachment,
adoration, and devotion based on strong
admiration, benevolence, and common interests. It
would be anomalous to associate this pleasurable
emotion with the ever so spiteful thought of
revenge. However, considering the major themes
proposed in Wuthering Heights, revenge is the most
imminent of them all. It is the predominant factor
that leads the protagonists to their dismal fate.
Emily Bronte proves that there is no peace in
eternal vengeance, and in the ...

Lady Catherine De Bourgh Mr Collins
1,091 words
We first hear of Mr Collins, one of Mr Bennet's
distant cousins, in a letter addressed to the
family living in the house which after Mr Bennet's
death will become his own. In this letter he
sounds very pompous, irrelevantly reiterating and
repeating the name of his patron, Lady Catherine
de Bourgh. Mr Collins is honest that he has an
ulterior motive for wanting to stay at Longbourn:
he wishes to take the hand of one of the Bennet
sisters in a marriage which would ensure that at
least one daughte...

Even thought I have not seen many Broadway-class
plays in my life, I was amazed by grandiose
production of Proof and its varied actors
performances. Proof tells the captivating story of
a woman and her eccentric family. Drama quickly
begins as the characters advance in their quest
for an enigmatic proof. While a few critics argued
that Proof is merely a family soap opera with
mathematical references to give the play scope, I
thought Proof was triumphant. I went to see the
Broadway play last Dece...
