someone with a child-like innocence who clearly
was in dire need of some help, she sounds very
lost. The other thing that grabs me about this
description is the use of the word angel which I

that she keeps a corpse locked away in an upstairs
room. Its safe to maybe say that she is an Angel
of death. The other character that keeps coming up

Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Hamlets Madness
3,806 words
The first part of this scene, between Polonius and
Reynaldo, is not necessary to the plot of the
play, and is often cut from performances. Thats a
shame, because its lots of fun. Polonius thinks he
is very wise, and Reynaldo, a sort of superior
butler, knows otherwise. Polonius is sending money
and notes (maybe more advice) to his son, Laertes,
but hes suspicious about what Laertes might be up
to. He seems to assume that if Laertes is fooling
around, he will lie about it, so Polonius has a
plan....

Incl Briar Lady Macbeth
2,063 words
Probably composed in late 1606 or early 1607,
Macbeth is the last of Shakespeare's four great
tragedies, the others being Hamlet, King Lear and
Othello. It is a relatively short play without a
major sub-plot, and it is considered by many
scholars to be Shakespeare's darkest work. Lear is
an utter tragedy in which the natural world is
amorally indifferent toward mankind, but in
Macbeth, Shakespeare adds a supernatural dimension
that purposively conspires against Macbeth and his
kingdom. In the tr...
