Forced To Work Character Development
936 wordsThe most apparent difference between Dracula and Nosferatu is that one was made while film was still without sound-at least dialogue-and the other was not. This difference, though not a revelation in itself, leads to a great number of much more in-depth contrasts that deserve discussion.

As a result of this, the director is not able to ...

Oedipus Rex Tragic Hero
361 wordsWhile both Sophocles and Euripides are considered writers of Greek tragedy, their plays (Antigone, Oedipus Rex, Medea) have some subtle and some profound differences. In both Antigone and Oedipus Rex, the tragic heroes suffer from a major character flaw- hubris. The tragic hero of Medea does not appear to have such a contrived flaw, as she is not forced to suffer from her actions in the play (killing her children, etc. ). Because Euripides made little mention of the forces of divinity as they ef...
