The spirits of the air I have already mentioned another type would be the spirits of the earth. These would include the goblins, the dogs and hounds that were used to disease Caliban and his associates. (: "Our natures do pursue, Like rats that ravin down their proper bane, A thirsty evil; and when we drink we die. [Act 1, sc. 2]) Another form of the earth spirits would be the nymphs (Prospero: "Go make yourself like a nymph o' th' sea. Be subject To no sight but thine and mine, invisible to every eyeball el ...
... We had a talk before he left. We sat down in the courtyard. It was a beautiful day and dad's presence was like another sun. He seemed to glow as he spoke to me. He said, "Hammy, I will be away for a while. I want you to watch mommy, and guard our fortress from invaders. Take this. It will help you be strong." He gave me a small gold dagger. He left that afternoon and I knew he wouldn't be back for a long time. Things carried on as usual. I ran around the castle playing and shirking any responsibility that I had. One day I was playing hide-and-go- seek with Laertes and the other kids. I accidentally strayed from the other kids. I just wandered around ...
... leave to loot and burn the houses of the guilty men. The armies of Brutus and Cassius set up camps near another city and knowing that Antony's soldiers are coming, they decide to march toward the enemy at once.

... to heaven. Why, this is hire and salary, not revenge.” He says here that he has his chance to kill his father's murder but, he is praying. By killing him while he's praying his soul goes to heaven and this wouldn't be revenge. This is not a thought of an insane person. An insane person would have completed the murder at this opportunity. In Act III, scene I, line 55, “To be or not to be...”, Hamlet displays his indecisiveness by thinking about suicide because of the situation he is in. He would rather be dead than live with the thought of his father's death going unavenged. He is scared to get revenge because he found out from a ghost and he doesn't kno ...
... work. Most Abstract Expressionist paintings have, to a certain extent, the same characteristics: The paintings are usually rather large; they are an expression of thought through the use of gestural or "action" painting; they are commonly painted with strange objects; they are usually filled with vibrant, shocking colours and many other things not normally! associated with other "classical" forms of art - these artists are trying to paint raw emotion, not pretty pictures. The painters who came to be known as "Abstract Expressionists" shared a similar outlook rather than a style - an outlook of revolt and a belief in the freedom of expression. The main th ...
... ( II, i, 303-304) Because of his profound stoicism, Brutus did not seem to show his graditude much when Portia killed her self. He simply drank wine to get ride of the pain and told Cassius to never speak of his wife again. “Lucius a bowl of wine! I did not think you could have been so angry, O Cassius, I am sick of many griefs. Of your philosophy you make no use If you give place to accidental evils. No man bears sorrow better. Portia is dead. Ha! Portia! She is dead. How ‘scaped I killing when I crossed you so? Oh, insupportable and touching loss! ...
... that much of what the audience regards as fact is fiction as he explores the uncertainty of human existence. When an audience of the 1960's went to the theatre, it can generally be assumed that they had preconceived ideas about what they expected and what they are going to gain from the theatrical experience. The traditional attitudes towards theatre and the conventions of realist drama are disrupted by Pinter. This confronts the assumptions and values of the audience, an experience which would be disconcerting and frightening to many. Pinter divorces and exposes society's codes, institutions and human relations. Throughout the play the audience is rarely ...
... costumes the actors wore were made to be very elaborate. Many of the costumes conveyed recognizable meanings for the audience such as a rich aristocrat wearing silk clothes with many ruffles. Many times there were musical accompaniments and sound effects such as gunpowder explosions andthe beating of a pan to simulate thunder. The stage itself was also remarkably versatile. Behind it were doors for exits and entrances and a curtained booth or alcove useful for actors to hide inside. Above the stage was a higher acting area which symbolized a porch or balcony. This was useful in the story of Romeo and Juliet, when Romeo stood below Juliet and told her how h ...
... forces her to live a large portion of her life sheltered and overshadowed by Albert, who continuously beats her into submission. Celie also passes on what she learned from “Mister” to his son Harpo, the rhetoric of “the importance of a man giving his wife a good beating.” Albert Johnson does not even realize how important Celie is to him until she is gone. At that point he returns some of the love that is shown to him by helping Nettie and her family to return to the United States in order to see Celie. This action shows the impact of Mr. Johnson's rhetoric on Celie by returning to her the first person that she ever loved. Both the rhetoric that Mr. ...
... would die at the hands of his own child. Out of fear, they pinned Oedipus’ ankles and handed him to a shepherd to abandon him to death. “ Jocasta: … An oracle came to Laius ” (p. 17) to “…to cast upon a deserted mountain path – die.”(p. 17). But instead of killing the infant, the shepherd gave him to another shepherd who then gave Oedipus to the King Polybus of Corinth. So this poor child survived to continue his tragic destiny. As Oedipus grows up, he becomes a self-confident, intelligent, and strong willed person. That is the kind of role that is cost for him by destiny. A drunken stranger tells him that he is not the son of King Polybus ...
