How Shakespeare Makes the Audience Aware of Cleopatra's Infinite Variety in the Opening Act Cleopatra was a talented mistress who used her feminine charm for personal gain. She was seductive, lustful, flirtatious, and sarcastic, she had courage, and she was jealous, spiteful, very violent and impatient. She was a woman of many contrasts, facets and changing moods. Shakespeare shows these different aspects of her character in the first act then goes on to build on them

"Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains". The next day, Abraham sets off for Moriah "and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood. And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son." After God stops the sacrifice, he tells Abraham, "Now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from

sight. They then see movement from the shirt moving up to the neck, then a frog appears in place of the last brother’s body! This occurred after the day the brothers were entranced by three sirens. Similar to Homer’s “The Odyssey,” “O Brother Where Art Thou” has many events that relate the Odysseus and his adventure. Not only do the two texts share similarities, but they have differences as well. Firstly, “The Odyssey” has Odysseus and his crew rowing away hard enough to make billows. Contrasted

We begin with one of Shakespeare’s most beloved and tragic plays, Macbeth. Set in 11th century Scotland there is more than one logical way to interpret the signs, symbols and themes of this intriguing story. There is more than one mystery and obscurity in this play that seems to be left open to the interpretation and imagination of the reader. One compelling occasion in particular is that of the death and supposed suicide of Lady Macbeth. Many critics, readers and other interpreters have discussed

Although King Alonso and Antonio unfairly banish Prospero from Milan, he still wrongfully overtakes the island he discovers and the few inhabitants on it. Not only does Prospero take control over Caliban, he also becomes Ariel’s master after saving him from his entrapment, but unlike the favored Ariel, Prospero treats Caliban horribly like a slave rather than a humble servant. Later in the play as Stephano encounters Caliban, he too takes advantage of him because of his gullibility and his fascination

MACBETH RELATIONSHIP ANALYSIS I found the relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth very interesting in the play. In Act I they are completely devoted to each other. Love, respect and trust are the contents of their relationship. The trust in the relationship is revealed right at the beginning when Macbeth sends his wife a letter telling her about the witches and the predictions “This have I thought good to deliver to thee, my dearest partner of greatness, that thee mightst not lose

King Henry IV. During the King’s speech to his people of the court, we get a solid understanding of how Hotspur is seen as an honourable man. The King proclaims his jealousy of Lord Northumberland for having Hotspur as an honourable son, “Yea, there thou makest me sad and makest me sin / In envy that my Lord Northumberland” (77-78). For the King sees Hotspur as a man of honour, “A son who is the theme of honour 's tongue” (80), while he views is own son as a disappointment, “See riot and dishonour

Homer’s The Odyssey (8th century) or in O’ Brother Where Art Thou (2000). In O’ Brother Where Art Thou and The Odyssey, the sirens from the book and the laundry ladies in the movie, are described almost exactly the same. Also in the book and the movie, a cyclops is included, but is portrayed differently in both. In addition throughout both of the works, the main protagonist, Odysseus (The Odyssey) and Everett (O’ Brother Where Art Thou), are on a journey in returning back to their families. Although

chorus is also sympathetic and so they try to persuade Creon that punishing her may not be the best thing. Lastly, Creon is sympathetic toward Antigone. When he first becomes aware that she is the culprit, he tries to give her a way out. “…knewest thou that an edict had forbidden this?” (Oates 282) This line implies that if Antigone denied knowing, she would have
