... with the wallpaper she becomes. In her mind,
the wallpaper becomes more than just wallpaper. It
takes on human characteristics. This paper looks
to me as if it knew what a vicious influence it
had (107)! When the story begins, the narrator
refers to the house as haunted. This theme is
again brought to the forefront when she begins to
describe the wallpaper. There is a recurrent spot
where the pattern lolls like a broken neck and two
bulbous eyes stare at you upside down (107).

Late 1800 Woman In The Wallpaper

The Yellow Wallpaper", written by Charlotte
Perkins Gilman in the late 1800 's, focuses on a

surroundings. She initially turns to her husband,
John, as a doctor and as her companion and he
dismisses the notion of mental illness as a
"slightly hysterical tendency." He isolates her by

contact outside of his s...

In the article, Othello and the pattern of
Shakespearean Tragedy, by G. R. Hibbard published
in 1968, Hibbard discusses how Othello, by William
Shakespeare, stands apart from the rest of the
Shakespearean Tragedies. He uses examples from the
play to support his thesis of how the tragic
pattern in Othello is very much different from
that of the others. I agree with Hibbard? s view
on Othello and it? s unique characteristics that
