Prince Of Cumberland Lady Macbeth
1,484 words
Innocence is a quality that few people take to
their grave, although all are born with it. At
some point in one's life, an event or circumstance
removes that shield from both moral and legal
guilt, whether in one's own eyes or in the eyes of
another. In such a case, innocence is cast off, or
innocence can be stolen. Both are true of Macbeth
in William Shakespeare's tragic work Macbeth. The
hero's innocence and name make him vulnerable prey
for those who feel completely at home in a
subhuman real...

Melbourne, one of the most beautiful city's in the
world. I have traveled through the USA, Canada &
the Bahamas, and still, I find Melbourne is the
greatest. In 1981 I was born in a New South Wales
mid-coast town of Port Macquarie. I lived there
until I was the age of four, and that's when we
made the move to Victoria. I grew up in Kew, a

cause for the move. I went to school and met lots

Midsummer Nights Dream Merchant Of Venice
1,151 words
William Shakespeare had a way of creating
intelligent characters who made use of the art of
deception for their own personal gains. Characters
such as Lucentio and Petruchio in The Taming of
the Shrew; Oberon and Puck in A Midsummer Nights
Dream; Portia in The Merchant of Venice; and
Richard in Richard III, all wanted to further
their own agenda and did so in very sneaky and
deceitful ways. These characters smartly used
trickery and deceit to achieve their goals, and
succeeded. And let me be a s...

Claudius Tells Hamlet
682 words
William Shakespeare? s Hamlet is a play full of
sorrow and excitement, its full of gore and
incest. The play has a large amount of betrayal
and the person supplying most of that is Claudius,
the king and Hamlets uncle. Claudius is
cold-hearted, full of hate, and a coward. He is
the king but, the ironic thing about that is he
should not be and as Hamlet is the prince, the
death of his father should put him at the throne.
The play starts off with a tense setting, as the
guards have seen a ghost th...

EXPLICATION The Doubt of Future Foes by Queen
Elizabeth I The doubt of future foes exiles my
present joy, And wit me warns to shun such snares
as threaten mine annoy. For falsehood now doth
flow, and subject faith doth ebb, Which would not
be, if reason ruled or wisdom weaved the web. But
clouds of toys untried do cloak aspiring minds,
Which turn to rain of late repent, by course of
changed winds. The top of hope supposed, the root
of ruth will be, And fruitless all their granted
guile's, as sho...

Macbeth And Banquo Weird Sisters
1,058 words
Fate plays a large role in Shakespeare's Macbeth.
Not only do the weird sisters use it to wreak
havoc among the Scottish nobility, but many people
throughout the play try to tempt fate. Macbeth
does it, as does Lady Macbeth. Then, later in the
play, even Malcolm, Macduff and the other
revolutionaries try to alter fate. Fate can be
many things to many different people. To those who
believe that fate is an all-encompassing aspect of
God, fate is merely an excuse for ones deeds. But

Producing Marisol Marisol, a play written by Jose
Rivera, is the play I enjoyed reading the most
this semester. Rivera, one of the leading
contemporary Latin American playwrights, writes
with an image. After reading Marisol, I came away
with a very specific picture of what Rivera had in
mind. He easily combines the realistic moments of
life, the dangers of the Bronx, dealing with an
emotionally unstable young man, Lenny, and the
friendships developed with those we work with,
with his world on th...

It has often been said that Macbeth is a character
of powerful contradictions. He is evil and
all-powerful. Are his violent acts and his
criminal activities simply the result of Macbeth?
s ambition to be King of Scotland? Why is he
willing to kill his king and his best friend with
apparently no remorse? Are his acts the result of
blind ambition? No, Macbeth is the target of
manipulation. He is not the manipulator, but
instead is manipulated by different people and
different forces. Macbeth encou...

Incl Briar Lady Macbeth
2,063 words
Probably composed in late 1606 or early 1607,
Macbeth is the last of Shakespeare's four great
tragedies, the others being Hamlet, King Lear and
Othello. It is a relatively short play without a
major sub-plot, and it is considered by many
scholars to be Shakespeare's darkest work. Lear is
an utter tragedy in which the natural world is
amorally indifferent toward mankind, but in
Macbeth, Shakespeare adds a supernatural dimension
that purposively conspires against Macbeth and his
kingdom. In the tr...

Legalize It? : Debating American Drug Policy The
controversy surrounding the legalization of drugs
has raged since the late 1930 s and it seems it
will continue well into the future. Such a debate
has been apparent in the American marketplace of
ideas before with the prohibition of alcohol in
the 1920 s. With the illegality of alcohol the
mafia could produce liquor and therefore had
considerable control over those who wanted their
substance and service. The role that the mafia
