Catcher In The Rye Kings In The Back
1,800 wordsThe Catcher and the Rye is not the kind of story with a meaningful story line, that is, knowing only that would indicate little on what it is about. The events told in the story, seem to unfold as flashbacks. We can sense a chronological order of events in Holden Caufield's story, although the order does not matter as much as acknowledging each event as its own story. Be what may, here is what was perceived as the story line. Holden Caufield was telling his story (to the readers, or to some peop...

Claudius And Gertrude Hamlet And Laertes
1,594 wordsI do agree that the characters in this scene are portrayed in a very ambiguous manner. At this point in the play, many of the characters are masking their real feelings; this is usually quite apparent in their language and behaviour on stage. The structure of the scene is an important feature used to display the characters ambiguity, especially with the characters of Hamlet and Claudius. Only Hamlet is alone on the stage at any one time, and is therefore the only character who can express his tr...

Beatrice And Benedick Claudio And Hero
985 wordsIn The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, the famous British poet William Blake wrote that "without contraries there is no progression - Attraction and repulsion, reason and imagination, and love and hate are all necessary for human existence" (Blake 122).
