Alec Jeffreys

There is such an incredible amount of killing, violence, and deceit in King Lear by many characters that it is difficult to choose the most evil character. The most evil character may deceive one into thinking she is less evil than she is, but upon closer inspection it is quite clear that the most evil character is Goneril.

relationships. In “How Many Miles to Babylon?” (HMMB) a novel by Jennifer Johnston, the theme of relationships is predominant; we are introduced to the character of Alexander ‘Alec’ Moore, a character with no real relationship. The destructive relationship with his parents has affected the relationship he has with himself. Alec has isolated himself from all forms of human contact. I find this quite troubling, but ultimately inspiring as I will discuss in this essay. Similarly in “The King’s Speech

Joan, and the characters Alec and Angel lead to her catastrophic downfall. To begin, Tess’s parents John and Joan have many flaws that are a result from the economy and personal vices. This novel was written during the time period where England’s economy was turning away from feudalism and mercantilism into industrialization.

As Boorstin identified, we choose who is famous by our attention, what they do in fact is not what determines their fate. Fame is no longer about the deed behind it, but simply the spectacle – Hitler made the cover of Time magazine seven times, Stalin following with 12 covers of his own.
