Killing Claudius Kill Claudius
755 words
Unlike most of the characters in this play, Hamlet
displays unique ways of thinking, as well as a
strange mentality towards loved ones. His
reactions towards his mother, Claudius, and
Ophelia are expressed with deep emotion, however,
Hamlet chooses to release his emotions with
immaturity and lack of self-control. Although his
decisions are child-like, perhaps his most tragic
flaw is the way he consistently argues with
himself over how to accomplish the murder of
Claudius. Throughout most of the ...

causes lose their motive because of their

sight of his noble cause: the character of Laertes

Hamlet for killing his father. Although Laertes
meant well in avenging his father's death, his
emotional behavior overtook him in the process. If

Judge a book by its cover Robert Louis Stevenson
and Toni Morrison develop their main characters
identities through their novels Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
Hyde and The Bluest Eye in a rather skeptical way.
In both cases we see stories of people that are
not fully satisfied with their lives. The
situation is probably even worth, they do not like
the context of life that they have to face in
their everyday activities. The reasons to that are
probably the fact that they do not look at their

Hamlet And Ophelia Series Of Events

The Madness of Hamlet and Ophelia It was
fascinating to look at how many characters in
Shakespeare s plays poked at the brink of
insanity. It seems to me, the plays couldn t have
been tragedies if this didn t happen. In the plays
we read, important characters evolved into
madness, the plot thickened, figures died, and the
tragedy prevailed. It was really interesting to
see how this series of events would be an ongoing
theme in the Shakespearean plays. Even though the
same outcome was to be expec...

Deaf And Dumb Nurse Ratched

This movie demonstrates much of what I despise
about my fellow feeble-minded Americans. In this
movie, I saw stereotypes galore, and almost every
cliche in the book. For example, one voluntary
patient is seeking therapy for his marital
problems. It seems that he and his wife were
having " sexual" problems. This
ultimately leads everyone, patients and viewers
alike, to believe that this man must be gay. As if
this werent enough, we have to have the "
