William Shakespeare, arguably the most important
writer in all of English literature, is certainly
the most influential playwright of the English
Renaissance. Born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon
in rural northern England, he was the son of a
middle-class glove maker. Competing against such
illustrious company as Christopher Marlowe and Ben
Johnson, Shakespeare quickly became one of the
most popular playwrights in the city of London and
a favorite of the monarch, the powerful and
long-lived Queen...

True Love Or Infatuation
656 words
Many different types of love play an important
role in the world today. True love and infatuation
coexist to make up love that can occur between a
man and a woman. Although true love and
infatuation may appear similar on the surface,
they actually reside on opposite ends of the
spectrum. Many young people today have experienced
infatuation, but only a select few have actually
experienced true love. The faster one learns to
distinguish between the two, the less likely one
ends up making a big mis...

Victims Of Domestic Domestic Abuse

"The Letterbox" by Anne Marie Di Mambro is a short
play set in the west coast of Scotland on the

Mambro wrote "The Letterbox" in order to educate
the audience on the topic of domestic violence. It
has been said that "drama mirrors the society in
which it was written, " this is certainly the case
wit the letter box. At the time "The Letterbox"

Fried Green Tomatoes Homosexual Relationship
1,641 words
My first impression of Fried Green Tomatoes at the
Whistle Stop Caf'e was that it was a "woman's"
novel. This was because the movie, which was more
popular than the book, was advertised as a "chick
flick." To say the least, I was wrong. The novel
poses many issues that face the people of the 1920
's and 30 's, and makes one think about what
people have struggled through. The novel addresses
the issue of racism before the time of Martin
Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement. It

women in their life. Hamlet is a good example of a
sons treatment of his mother reflecting how he
will treat the woman he loves because when
considering Hamlets attitude and treatment of the
Ophelia in William Shakespeare's play, Hamlet, one
must first consider how Hamlet treated his mother.
A characteristic of Hamlets personality is to make
