Avenge His Father King Of Denmark

one of the greatest works of literature. This is
largely due to its title character, Hamlet. Hamlet
is almost universally considered one of the most
remarkable characters in all of literature (Boyce,
1990, p. 232). Shakespeare develops Hamlet using a
variety of techniques, but one of the strongest is
his use of contrasting him with other characters.

King Of England Macbeth Macbeth

More Power To You Henry V, Twelfth Night, and
Macbeth cover the whole field of Shakespearean
genres, but it is amazing how Shakespeare displays
a theme and carries it through in any kind of play
he wants to. Historic, comic, and tragic plays are
about as different as you can get, yet when we
take a closer look we see many similarities among
them, especially in the area of social hierarchy.
In all three of these plays, Shakespeare uses a
similar theme, which he conveys and proves through
his char...
