    multitude of Shakespeare's/Shakespearean work, I still could not help but bring to light the comparisons I made between the relationships in The Indian Emperour and those in The Taming of the Shrew, Romeo & Juliet, and Macbeth. However, despite there being a possibility that my mind and its analyses process has been temporarily compromised by the good work of our 16th century friend Billy, such a comparison is not outlandish. It is beneficial to keep in mind a few notions and points, the obvious first

    Comparison between Shakespeare and Pinter Both extracts are obviously dramatic texts, although the differences between Shakespeare and Pinter are considerable. Set in 1592, Shakespeare’s Richard III focuses on the epic story of a man striving to be king at any cost. By contrast, Pinter’s post-modernist concerns highlighted through this ‘kitchen sink drama’ focuses on the claustrophic oppressive domestic world of an ordinary family. Shakespeare’s Jacobean reflection is equally as intriguing as Pinter’s

    Using the technique of comparison, William Shakespeare describes how deep his love is for his significant other in both “Sonnet 18” and “Sonnet 130.” Shakespeare takes an unconventional approach by utilizing compare and contrast to make his point.

Shakespeare proves that the same underlying theme can be proved by using different poetic styles and

    The negotiation that occurred between Ferdy and Captain Shakespeare did not end in Ferdy's favor. Throughout its entirety, Captain Shakespeare had complete control of its direction and ended the negotiation with his proposal of 200 for the lightning bolts. The majority of messages were conveyed through body language; throughout the negotiation Captain Shakespeare's body language expressed authority, commitment to his asking price, and a tone of voice that was more aggressive than Ferdy. Ferdy's downfall

    AUTHOR’S NOTE I went a little over when I was writing this analysis but I wanted to pack in as much information as I could.
