Lady Macbeth Hath Made
870 words
In Shakespeare's play Lady Macbeth makes the
commitment to carrying out the murder suddenly.
After reading her husband's letter, almost
instantly she gets the idea. Her reasoning is
plain: If her husband is to be great, he must be
king; if he is to be king, Duncan must die; if
Duncan is to die, he must be murdered, but she
fears Macbeth is not capable of the act. She must
help her husband. She feels it is her duty and her
responsibility to do this. First she decides she
will push him to the deed...

singer, and medical student; the two divorced
shortly after on July 7, 1931. Zora Neale Hurston

Make Good Neighbors False Sense Of Security

Walls and Borders Do "good fences really make good
neighbors?" (666) Robert Frost's poem Mending Wall
examines this as a local issue. It can also be
interpreted as a global issue. Frost writes about
two neighbor farmers and how a wall between their
property effects the relationship between the two.
Taking a more global look at the issue, the
conflict in the former Yugoslavia relates to
Mending Wall. Perhaps "good fences" give people a
false sense of security. Robert Frost's poem,

Men And Women Media Gender And Identity
1,400 words
Response Paper Betty Friedan is considered to be
one of the leading feminist philosophers. Her
ideas, expressed in Feminine Mystique, are very
good example of how biological perversity gets to
be described in terms of being normal and even
necessary. Basically, Friedan says that the
difference between men and women has no role in
defining the historical process. In her view, the
notion of womens role in society is socially
motivated and has nothing to do with two genders
being biologically diffe...
