pace. As a result, corruption and ruthlessness
grows variably with the desires and cravings that
haunt a persons psyche. Both Macbeth and Lord of

Voltaire A History That Never Moved

... Voltaire does not labour the point of a
progressive essence behind history, other than to
realise that the age he lives in is a remarkable
age that must have derived from progression. This
is the seminal paradox. Yet his history remains a
chronology, not a progression. By no means could
one assert that there are no forces that move
history in Voltaire's eyes. They might lie in
masses, though he does not trust revolution since
revolution done in the name of reason is often
executed by those l...

Lear's character, since he is the personification
of truth and reason. The fool serves to show Lear

Romeo And Juliet Falling In Love

Was Romeo and Juliets love based on looks,
rebellion, external forces, or was it in actuality
true love? There is no denying the fact Romeo and
Juliet is a great play and an exceptional
Shakespearean work, but upon closer inspection, is
it a story of true love? Many hints and clues may
lead one to the belief that the love exhibited in

we are first introduced to Romeo, he is involved
with a girl by the name of Rosaline. Benvolio
