Battling Brothers “Don John, the Prince’s brother, was a villain,” (Shakespeare IV.ii.33-34) The obvious conflict between Don John and Don Pedro develops the story of Much Ado About Nothing. The men’s differing interests create climactic deception and frustration. However, other characters in the play do not always recognize this conflict, which accelerates Shakespeare’s comic conventions. The foil of these two characters and their actions emphasize particular character traits between the families
Dances With Wolves, directed by Kevin Costner, and The Searchers, directed by John Ford, looks into the fabric of this country's past. The media has created a false image of the relationship between Native Americans and White men to suppress the cruel and unfortunate reality.

Many of us know John Smith as a fearless leader, a true hero, a man who was solely responsible for the success of Jamestown (the first English colony in the North America).

These written accounts give us an insight unlike any other to 17th century America. John Smith and William Bradford were two men who landed in the New World around the same time. Despite this, these two men produced drastically different accounts. Bradford’s frank account appears to accurately document what occurred, whereas Smith’s exaggerated
within the Western genre. According to John G. Cawelti’s The Six-Gun Mystique Sequel, most Westerns follow specific character setup. The hero (man), the savage (bad guy), and the woman characters form a figurative, triangular relationship. The woman often comes between the dichotomous, battling relationship of hero and savage. There is also the underlying threat that the woman could be captured and raped by the savage, but the hero will eventually defeat the savage to protect her. It is also worth
