... women were discriminated. against. This simple fact affects the whole play's outcome. A young woman by the name of Nora is under the control of her husband. He feels that he must rule her for he is the head of the family. He would place small stipulations on her such as not being able to eat macaroons. When she would make mistakes, he would refer to her by some little name like, "Lark" or "Squirrel." All of these things mentioned ar due to the setting. This caused Nora to want to leave more and more. I believe Ibsen picked this setting to tell of how women were treated. ...

... to his king for his own selfishness. And in the end, apparently, Macbeth's ambition is stronger than his conscience. In addition, Macbeth's ambition caused him to do desperate things. Desperation. in my opinion, dug Macbeth's own grave. When the subject of Macduff arrives, I don't think that he would have been so bitter towards Macbeth if he hadn't killed his wife and children. Killing Macduff's family gains nothing for Macbeth and tries to get at Macduff indirectly. This act of desperation and spitefulness gives a good reason to now fear Macduff. Also, as Macbeth took the throne, he really didn't trust anyone except his wife, Lady Macbeth. Para ...
... our battlements" (Act 1, Scene 2:line22, 23) Macbeth was not a bad man at first he was a very noble ally to Duncan. When Macbeth he saw the Three Witches everything changed. They told him things he wanted to here and he believed them. He told Lady Macbeth what the witches said. She taught him and ridiculed him to be evil. He listened to her and that is when the trouble started. The first ignoble killing by Macbeth was the killing of what was supposed to be his friend Duncan. Macbeth killed Duncan to become king. "And only thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood … It is the bloody business which informs" (Act 2, Scene1: lines 46-48) Macbeth starts to hallucinate ...
... influence pushing Macbeth to kill Duncan was Lady Macbeth. She knew her husband was " too full o' the milk of human kindness" to take the initiative and she resolved to push him into murdering Duncan Macbeth was so upset after killing Duncan he stated " I'll go no more, I am afraid to think what I have done". Lady Macbeth then accepted the responsibility of taking the daggers and smearing the grooms with blood. She had goaded Macbeth into killing Duncan and she stopped him from falling apart with remorse after having done the deed. Macbeths reign as king was one of fear and insecurity that others would take the crown from him. Of Banquo he said " their is n ...
... because of what it might do to the kingdom's people. Even though it seems that Oedipus has not been a particularly good monarch, in fact his only major accomplishment seems to be killing the Sphinx all those years ago, having a king put to death could have serious repercussions on the rest of the kingdom. So in the end, the only way to cure the plague and keep the kingdom stable seems to be the banishment of Oedipus. In this case, the question of whether or not he deserved to be punished seems irrelevant; Oedipus' only goal was to stop the plague and by leaving, he has accomplished that goal. Banishment was the only choice. But what exactly was Oedipus being p ...

At the medical school he has a room mate who is extremely serious about his studying and who is extremely humorless. His room mate gets very frustrated and eventually angry at Patch because patch seems to just fool around all the time where as he studies extremely hard yet patch gets higher grades than him. The real high point in the movie comes when Patch Adams is attanding medical school and when they are at the hospital to look at patients and Patch Adams acts as a clown in a room filled with kids which really cheers them up. He also makes friends with a man suf ...
... is pretty stupid in this story; she betrays her dead husband by marrying his brother and doesn't even notice her fault. She does attempt to redeem herself though, she is loyal to and over all is a pretty honest woman. has friends who are both loyal, and that are trying to betray him. The soldiers: Marcellous, Bernardo, and Francisco show their loyalty to by coming to him with there situation of seeing the ghost who looks like the dead king. They also all swear not to tell a soul about what they had seen and heard. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern on the other hand are terrible friends to have, they agree to spy on and be Cladius' little tools. In my opinion ...
... were going to get Wyatt for killing one for their brothers. Doc knew that Wyatt might of been killed if he went there on his own. So again, even though not in the best of health, Doc went to help Wyatt out. Another type of friendship is the one that came between John Oakhurst and young Tom Simson in the story of The Outcast of Poker Flat. In this camaraderie the two men were in a poker game and young Simson lost all of his money to Oakhurst. After the game Oakhurst pulled him aside and gave him his money back and a little lecture on not to gamble any more. By this he made a slave (friend) for life. A few months later when Oakhurst became exiled out of town ...
... to Scotland. “Hail, King! For so thou art.” (Act V, Scene ix, Line 20) Malcolm fled to England and formed and army to revolt against Macbeth. Malcolm’s thoughtful cunning plan vanquished Macbeth and his rain of tyranny over Scotland. Malcolm’s brave actions were recognized when he is crowned the king of Scotland. Banquo and Duncan were both innocent and pure people. Macbeth himself says that Banquo is “...royalty of nature...” (Act III, Scene i, Line 49). Duncan praises Macbeth “True, worthy Banquo, he is full so valiant,And in his commendations I am fed;” (Act I, Scene v, Lines 54-5) showing is good, kind, and pure heart. These two ...
