Oedipus Rex: Oedipus Deserves His Fate
<view this essay>.... Sophocles has provided a conclusive answer to those who suggest that Oedipus could, and therefore should, have avoided his fate.

The ancients believed that whatever an Oracle predicts was bound to happen. Oedipus does what he can to evade his destiny, he resolves never to see his supposed parents again. But it is quite certain from the first that his best efforts will fail.

Macbeth: Macbeth's Conduct And Personality
<view this essay>.... for worldly honors; his delight lies primarily in buying golden opinions from all sorts of people. But we must not, therefore, deny him an entirely human complexity of motives. For example, his fighting in Duncan's service is magnificent and courageous, and his evident joy in it is traceable in art to the natural pleasure which accompanies the explosive expenditure of prodigious physical energy and the euphoria which follows. He also rejoices no doubt in the success which crowns his efforts in battle - and so on. He may even conceived of the proper motive which should energize back of his great deed: The service and the loyalty I owe, In doing it, pays itself .....

Antigone: Creon
<view this essay>.... Creon's tragedy in his inability to recognize that anyone else can be right and his failure to acknowledge a higher good than that of the state. In part, the characterization of Creon is Sophocles' commentary on the corrupting influence that absolute power has even on a good man, and is typical of the democratic Athenian attitude.

Others consider her a woman of innate nobility and idealism, unwilling to compromise the truth as she sees it, who s .....

BONGO.. Always American Made - Analysis Of Bongo Jeans Ad
<view this essay>.... thinking, "Oh no, now I
am nude. What will I do now?".
The young lady has obviously not lost a single hand. She is fully
clothed and seems to be in total control of the game and her life. This
makes sense since the magazine the ad appears in is geared towards teenage
girls. She sits in a somewhat sensual pose, leaning forward, with a look of
confidence and achievement on her face. She obviously knows that her hand
is a winner, and that her companion will soon be without even his shoes.
On the table are two glasses of milk. This is one of the most
powerful images in the ad. I believe they are there to counteract the
sexual overtones and idea of r .....
