Miss Emily House Rose For Emily
1,876 words
Symbolism in A Rose for Emily A symbol is a
person, object, or event that suggests more than

for Emily, the symbolism shows more about the
character than is detailed by the author. Authors

Jealous Man And That Iago Man And That Iago Othello
423 words
Othello A Research Essay The Orthodox
interpretation of Shakespeare's Othello is built
on two assumptions; that Othello is not a jealous
man and that Iago has no motives. Although there
are many examples of these opinions within the
play, I believe there is much more evidence which
contradict these two statements, which allow me to
conclude that Othello is in fact a jealous man and
that Iago does have motives. As the play
progresses the audience witness the development
and increasing complexity ...

Consequences Of His Actions Cordelia Is The Only Daughter
1,416 words
In Shakespeare's classic tragedy, King Lear, the
issue of sight and its relevance to clear vision
is a recurring theme. Shakespeare's principal
means of portraying this theme is through the
characters of Lear and Gloucester. Although Lear
can physically see, he is blind in the sense that
he lacks insight, understanding, and direction. In
contrast, Gloucester becomes physically blind but
gains the type of vision that Lear lacks. It is
evident from these two characters that clear
vision is not der...

them. More often everything rushes in the opposite
direction, disappointing us, and generally

the lineage of Christ. Both poems give these women
the power of choice, which they do not have in the
typical biblical text. Both poems show the power
of man as motivation over the power of God.
