Strange Case Of Dr Jekyll And Mr
775 wordsOften the most meaningful and revealing statement in a text tends to be its final statement, either concluding the entire story or simply closing the narrative. The same can be said of a film s final image, which can leave the audience suspicious of the film s ending, questioning whether the story has come to a complete conclusion or if the narrative has paused for a while, leaving room for a sequel. I plan to examine the parting sentence of two texts, Emily Bronte s Wuthering Heights and Robert...

Christian Values Trial Scene
898 wordsThe idea of mercy is important in the Merchant of Venice because it provides a focus for the contrast between Venetian Christian society and the alien invader, represented by Shylock. Mercy occupies a central position in the trial scene (IV. i. ), where the power struggle between aristocratic Venetian society and the threatening force of Shylock comes to a climax. My thesis is that the contrast between (and equation of) mercy and revenge in the trial scene reveals the true nature of Venetian soc...

Act 3 Scene 3 Cassio And Desdemona
979 wordsIn Act 3 Scene 3, how does Iago persuade Othello of Desdemona s supposed infidelity? Act 3 Scene 3 is, arguably, the most important scene in the entire play, for it is the point of no return. It is as if for the entire beginning of the play you were pushing a huge boulder up a steep mountain, and in this scene you reach the top, and push it down the other side, helpless to stop it. This is how I see the action in Othello. Iago spends the whole time plotting, and conspiring with the audience, and...
