... her son Hamlet and Claudius knows that. In order to stay king he must please Getrude, therefore he pretends to love Hamlet in front of Gertrude but behind her back, he plots to murder Hamlet. “I will work him To an exploit, now ripe in my device, under the which he shall not chose but fall. And for his death no wind of blame shall breathe”1. Gertrude's trust is betrayed by Claudius at that moment because Gertrude believes that Claudius loves Hamlet, when in fact, he despises him and wishes death upon him. Claudius is not the only character that betrays in the play Hamlet. Hamlets makes Ophelia believe that he loves her for a long time, until one day h ...
... is raising an army with which, it is expected, he will try to recover lands forfeited to Denmark after his father had been killed in battle by the elder Hamlet. He wants to reclaim his lands as well as his honor. Claudius, the new king and Hamlet’s Uncle, thanks the assembled courtiers for their helping him take the throne of his brother. He then quickly marries Gertrude, the widowed Queen. Hamlet is very angry at this situation. Claudius sends emissaries to the aged uncle of Fortinbras, asking him to restrain his nephew. The King and Queen then reprimand Hamlet; he has been unduly melancholy since the death of his father about two months before. Left alone, ...
... enraged and casts her off saying, "Here I disclaim all my paternal care, propinquity and property of blood, and as a stranger to my heart and me hold this from thee for ever."(I,i, ln 113-116). Some think that Cordelia was prideful, or even a fool in her response, but I believe she was simply being honest and true. Another mistake that was made in the course of the play was by the Earl of Gloucester. After being tricked by his bastard son, Edmund, into believing that his other son, Edgar, was plotting to kill him, he put all his faith in Edmund, which would eventually lead to his demise. Besides believing that Cordelia was being true and honest to her father, I ...
... and understanding, but I don't want to waste that line. Proctor's carring and willing to give people thinks was not his best feature. Proctor was always thing about him, himself and no one else, except the final outcome of the whole situation. Take for exaple the fellow that wanted to get some tree off Proctor's land. Even though Proctor had probably no knowlage of the trees on his land, he still wanted a peice of the pie. Proctor wanted always money. He was money hungry and cheap. Basicly Proctor was a would be if he could be. Proctor was always trying to fit into the high class crowd, flash his powere and money on the middle class or poorer people, but when ...
... things like this, it shows how well he can put words together. When Romeo says "I have a night's cloak to fide me from their sight." On page 510, line 80. He meant that he will hide from everyone, just to see Juliet. People say many good and bad things about Romeo. For instance on page 500, line 67, when Capulet says "Verona brags of him." When Lord Capulet said that it shows that he is well respected by Verona and its people. People say bad things about Romeo, when Tybalt says "It fits when suck a villian is a guest, I'll not endure him" on page 500, line 75. Tybalt calls him a villian because he dis-likes Romeo and wants to kill him because he came un-in ...
... but we believed in it." Then in the next line, Laurie accuses Jock of supporting the rest of the committee in upholding the tradition not because he believed in it himself, but because he didn't want Laurie to succeed, "They might have believed in it but the reason why you wouldn't let the Club buy players was to stop me winning a flag." However, Jock does support and use tradition when it is in agreement with his goals. For example when trying to avert a players' strike, Jock claims that former Club heroes would be disgusted by the idea, "I want to turn all those photographs around so they don't have to look down on this shameful scene." However, it is later r ...

... Only three years ago, however, it was a bit different. “Roseanne” helped to set a trend in society that has made it more acceptable to be gay in the media. From the billboard I saw, to Roseanne's now (in)famous kiss with another woman. Roseanne has contributed to this trend immensely with her television sitcom. To begin with, the series Roseanne has had gay characters on it for a long time. Roseanne's boss Leon was gay, and after “the kiss” his role on the show became more outspoken as he got married to his lover in the season after Roseanne kissed another woman. In the 1994, Roseanne had a homosexual encounter with another woman played by Mariel ...
... committed on Duncan. This crime was planned by both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. The actual murder was done by Macbeth, making him more guilty of the crime. Lady Macbeth just talked about committing the crime, but she never actually went through with it nor would she ever, and that is all that counts. Talking about committing the incident is very different from actually doing it. Lady Macbeth did a little more than just talk about it though. She also urged Macbeth into doing it and that is what makes her part of this crime, but she is not as guilty as Macbeth. He really didn't have to listen to what his wife said. Macbeth had a mind of his own and he could make ...
... met in 1856 and, at first, Monet resisted Boudin's offer of tuition but he eventually relaxed his protestations and before long, the two had forged a relationship that was to last a lifetime. Although Monet soon left Le Havre to spend a large part of his life travelling throughout Europe, he returned frequently to visit his old friend. The interest that had been sparked some years earlier was refined and shaped and Monet was in no doubt as to the extent to which his outlook on life had been altered: My eyes were finally opened and I understood nature; I learned at the same time to love it. Boudin may have opened Monet's eyes, he may have even convinced the young ...
