Chain Gang Baby Suggs
1,319 wordsAnger, in all its sometimes raw, sometimes subtle, sometimes simple and sometimes sophisticated glory is an affect, which from the first line of Toni Morrison's Beloved (" 124 was spiteful") takes center stage. The true multi-faceted nature of this affect often goes unrealized because we tend to recognize an emotion through its responses. Anger, in most minds is married to aggression and violence and we usually only acknowledge its presence when it is accompanied by these mates. Anger is also of...

A stunned liberal establishment has no idea how to take him. Perhaps he should be dead, says his friend, the novelist Fr&# 233; d&# 233; ric Beigbeder.

Play Was Written Act 1 Scene 5
1,463 wordsIn the play Macbeth, I think Shakespeare, the author, uses characters in the structure of the play to a large effect. In Act 1, I think Banquo was used by Shakespeare as a contrast to Macbeth; they are close friends, and have similar personalities, but when they are each prophesied great things by the witches, Banquo does not become as ambitious as Macbeth does. I think this shows that Lady Macbeth played a large part in influencing Macbeth to murder Duncan and attain what was prophesied for him...

Act 1 Sc Lady Macbeth
470 wordsIn Macbeth, the imagery of animals behavior and class status advances the theme of animals in relation to human characteristics.

Stoops To Conquer Chain Of Events
1,662 wordsTHE MISTAKES OF A NIGHT Oliver Goldsmith, born the son of an Anglo-Irish clergyman, established himself during his brief career as an essayist, poet and dramatist with great comic insight into the social mores of Georgian England. His dramatic triumph She Stoops to Conquer (1773), is a dramatic irony, that is a play of manners. Rather than referring to the play as She Stoops to Conquer, one can make a case that The Mistakes of a Night may be a more fitting title. While not the central figure of ...
