Question: Does Hamlet fabricate the conversation
with the ghost? In Shakespeare's Hamlet, madness,
along with revenge, is a central theme. Hamlet is

Oedipus Rex By Sophocles Robert Fitzgerald
1,143 words
Oedipus Rex, by Sophocles, (as translated by
Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald), is replete
with dramatic devices - one of which is known as
Sophoclean Irony. Sophoclean Irony can be divided
into two terms: unconscious and conscious irony.
Unconscious irony occurs when a character speaks
what he believes is the truth, but the audience
(fore-armed with knowledge of the truth) knows
that it is not. Conscious irony is evident when a
character knows the truth but is reluctant to
reveal it: thus, he...

often looked at. Nevins accomplishes his goal by
writing a thesis that emphasizes the terrible side
of war, but does not ignore the glorious side of
war. Thus, Nevins writes a well balanced thesis.

Scarlet Letter By Nathaniel Hawthorne Hester

People live with lies every day. Everyone from the

amount of guilt they place on the liar. If they
feel guilt, then they suffer greatly throughout
their lives, from lots of small indiscretions or
just once large one. The majority of the people in
