... cultures would not except their children to do that. Also the style in which dresses would not be clear to other cultures. She dresses like a boy which reflects on her acting like a boy. For someone not knowing the present culture this would have no effect on the story. At one point in this scene tells her parents that they are out of milk.

The way this scene is perceived could extremely vary from culture to culture. ’s parents need to make their child feel more noticed and loved. ...
... events performed for audiences of all classes. Many audience members couldn't read or write, so Sophocles used well known stories as plots. The audience didn't have to focus on understanding the plot. They already knew the story of Oedipus, which Sophocles used to his advantage. With well known plots the people's minds were open and Sophocles's messages were beaten into them. Almost like subliminal messages. But what messages would Sophocles wish to push on his audiences? Well, at the time, the people of Athens were declining in moral values, they were losing faith in the Gods, mistreating people lower than them and taking part in thefts, murders and ...
... Romeo goes to find Rosaline at Capulets party yet fate leads him to meet Juliet. He wants the outside power that rules his life to "steerage [his] course and direct [his] sail" (Act 1, Scene 5, Pg. 403) for he thinks that fate will lead him in the right direction. The vision Romeo sees in his dream "that his lady found him dead" (Act IV, Scene I, Pg. 463) foreshadows that fate brings Romeo to his death.

Juliet goes to the party to meet Paris yet fate brings Romeo and Juliet together on first sight which intensifies the deadly conflict between the Montague's and the Capulets. Finding Romeo dead ...
... The play carries on for almost 3 hours, and is tempered with boredom (e.g. Isabella's laughably unimpassioned speech to Angelo), and momentary spots of humour (e.g. the some-times hilarious exchange between Lucio, a servant to the Duke, and the Duke disguised as a friar. This moment of ironic comedy is certainly one of the play's highlights, and is a model for many modern humour pieces) which all serve to create a less than enthralling afternoon of "not so high" drama. I will not attempt to explain the plot, as one of the play's redeeming factors is the suspense created by the soap operatic storyline. All in all,"MFM" is an average play written by an exceptional wri ...

... Brooks originally wanted Groening to make an animated pilot of Life in Hell. Groening chose not to do so in fear of loosing royalties from papers that printed the strip. Groening presented Brooks with an overweight, balding father, a mother with a blue beehive hairdo, and three obnoxious spiky haired children. Groening intended for them to represent the typical American family "who love each other and drive each other crazy". Groening named the characters after his own family. His parents were named Homer and Margaret and he had two younger sisters named Lisa and Maggie. Bart was an anagram for "brat". Groening chose the last name "Simpson" to sound lik ...

She drank blood, the charm, and danced in the woods as a means of witchcraft to end Elizabeth’s life. Abigail said: I want to open myself! I want the light of God, I want the sweet love of Jesus!
