Ander And Baldor Response

I found that the excerpt focused primarily on the process of writing resonated with me the greatest. As a student, I feel as though many teachers I have had in the past stressed that the final work students submit must be high quality, yet they did not construe nor fixate on the course of action that is needed to be taken in order to meet their standards. I feel as though this has affected me negatively because I haven’t prioritized time as a tool that will ensure I put in an immense amount of effort. The argument that a large proportion of student writing presently is arhetorical

I have known this boy since I was four and I have always been too afraid to stand up to him when he was bullying one of my friends or me. A batch of courage came across me, I stood up for my castmate and I let my directors know what had been going on backstage. Even though I do not remember what I said to the bully, I remember the passion and fear that I felt when standing up against him. I could have stayed silent like the others, but I knew what was right in my heart and had the desire to

While courage is thought of as only actions, Cyrano exhibits his courage through his actions and words. Subsequently, Cyrano de Bergerac is a main character in the play Cyrano de Bergerac. As a matter of fact, de Bergerac is a character people ensure not to meddle with. He duels with anyone who challenges him. He stands bold and daring in all his actions. After warning an actor not to perform, Cyrano illustrates his courage by bellowing, “ Let Montfleury go home, or stay, and, having cut his ears off, I will disembowel him!” while the play is in session (22). Most individuals keep their opinions to themselves in fear of what others might ruminate about them. De Bergerac displays his audacity verbally by shouting out in the middle of a production. He dauntlessly demonstrates his opinion to Montfleury, by threatening him to continue. Secondly, another way that Cyrano flaunts his daring acts is when he declares, “let me hear that song again, I will do you all to death with my stick!”(23). Deliberately, Cyrano practices his courage towards the impetuous side of the spectrum. He challenges anyone who fancies him to fight him. For instance, this shows he is confident about his fighting skills and is brave

But sadly, fear keeps us from moving on in life. We are fearful of the unknown, what others may think, and ultimately decisions we make daily. In this paper, we will examine the causes of fears in the characters of these plays, and how most of the time their fear causes negative effects. I will discuss a few of the main characters in each of the plays and how I evaluated the fear found within these plays and why it happened to begin with.

Shakespeare’s Hamlet is a work of immense depth in character development, most notably the personal, moral and psychological battles

Many view Hamlet, the main character, in Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet as a hero. He portrays characteristics that prove to the reader that he does possess heroic qualities. Although, it is a struggle for him throughout the play, but as he goes through life and learns new ways of coping things, he develops new characteristics that he didn’t have in the beginning. Hamlet learns to overcome his anxiety, depression, and anger. In the end, he learns how to be calm and collected. The way Hamlet learns how to handle internal conflicts throughout the play, shows the readers a realistic view of the difficult encounters one may have when learning to cope with different issues.

The dialog provided was strong but also impactful allowing me to familiarize with how the character was feeling in the moment.

Curiously in this scene there is absolutely no dialogue. So many would ask themselves how I can say what the characters felt at this moment. Williams, a musical genius, helps to portray all of these

The two characters can not convey what they desired to say to one another. In the opening start of the episode, while they both still possessed their voices, talking didn't help them express how they felt about each other. Later in the episode just after both of their voices are lost, they have the ability to connect more and be able to truly express themselves. Talking does not seem to give them any advantage, because whenever they were to interact they would get disrupted between their “babbling”. Since they could not verbally communicate, by the reason of their voices being lost, they communicate through facial expressions in a way that display what they are feeling.

In the tragedy play “Hamlet” written by William Shakespeare, had an underlying theme of heroism. Throughout the entire play, Hamlet has proven himself to be a hero in disguise. He is a good representation of how an ordinary individual can be a hero. However, as we continue to read the play, we soon discover that he is incapable of certain things and carry traits that go against what a typical hero is believed to have. Hamlet is not the stereotypical hero you would expect. Instead, he is a flawed hero. Every time we look at Hamlet, he is different, unpredictable, but never cease to surprise us with his acts. Our relationship with Hamlet changes each time we read the play. The play offers a different standard than what is typical for what defines

When lining the characters Beowulf, from Beowulf by R.M Liuzza, and Hamlet, from William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, side by side, the parallels of these characters are often overlooked. At a first glance, we see Beowulf, the strong warrior who died whilst defeating three gruesome monsters, and then Hamlet, the problematic and fearful prince who died trying to fulfill a foolish act of hatred. Ultimately, we view them as hero and anti-hero. As this is a common conclusion for readers, it’s often the only one they come to due to society’s influence in literature. We believe that what society believes as a whole is correct and decide to not investigate further. However, if we chose to overlook these common misconceptions we will notice how similar these two characters truly are. Although both characters vary in how they come across in such situations, they ultimately face similar circumstances. Both Beowulf and Hamlet rid Denmark of a monster, are courageous, and die in victory.

There is no denying that Shakespeare is a definitive playwright. He has presented us with classic works that have set the precedent for drama and the theatre. Among Shakespeare’s more notable plays are his tragedies. In the tragedy his protagonists are often given flaws in their character and hence, are suitably named tragic heroes. The downfall of these protagonists is often a result of their own character flaws and unfortunately, they suffer a doomed and unhappy ending. While the tragic hero is flawed they must also be honorable and worthy of the audience’s understanding and sympathy. On a quest for righteousness the tragic hero often goes through immense suffering which is why the audience can feel bad for him. For the most

In a couple of lines when I was rehearsing the character, I tried remembering the emotions I felt in similar circumstances, and utilizing those circumstances to create that same emotion within me. Those feelings drawn from my actual experience and transferring them to my part, is what gave some life to the scene as per my understanding. When I did not give those feelings, all external production was formal, cold, and pointless when it was not motivated from within. I tried as much as possible not to force an emotion or movement because it only hinders the piece, and I always kept in mind Waleed’s comment about losing oneself in emotion: "Never lose yourself on the stage. Always act in your own person, as an artist.

This media product in front of you is a outline of Hamlet’s face. The intended audience is for everyone who has read the play and who would agree that Hamlet’s inability to act has lead to his own downfall. In this media product I have decided to show 2 sides of Hamlet. The right side shows Hamlet’s lack courage and the left side shows that Hamlet is an over thinker. Both of these characteristics have lead to Hamlet’s downfall.

I was in the best of settings when I realized that Shakespeare was indeed great. My freshman year in high school, I had English class with an esteemed teacher, Mr. Broza—hailed as the Paul D. Schreiber High School Shakespeare aficionado, founder of Schreiber’s Annual Shakespeare Day, and, perhaps most heart-warming of all, a self-proclaimed Shakespeare lover whose posters of The Bard could be found as wallpaper in his small office. How lucky I thought I was. Indeed, if I wanted to appreciate Hamlet, I was in the right hands.
