A Letter To Shakespeare
<view this essay>.... centuries ago, but I think that you could make
a more revised version of the story for people today to read.
One part that really stuck out to me was the very famous "balcony scene".
Much of the language here could use some revision. For example, when Juliet
says, "Romeo, Romeo, where for art thou Romeo?", I think it would be much better
if she simply said something to the affect of "Romeo, where are you?" since that
is practically all she is saying. And at the end of the balcony scene, instead
of Juliet saying "Parting is such sweet sorrow," although that is very dramatic,
she could just say something like, "I wish you didn't have to go so soon."

people to him, as it does for Desdemona. The senators value him and hear what
he says when he speaks. This is shown here by one of the senators. "Here comes
Barbantio and the valiant Moor", (Act I scene 3, 47) . This is an example of

The Crucible Shows Characterization Through The Experiences Of John Proctor
<view this essay>.... It's impossible for a reader to have a big argument like this with their reverend. John Proctor goes beyond the faith of society and challenges the reverends religious beliefs. John Proctor's experience shows characterization by his reverends obsession with hell.

Elizabeth says, "John, you are not open with me." John replies with, "I'll plead my honesty no more Elizabeth." In the proceeding words spoken between t .....

The Problem In Macbeth
<view this essay>.... yourself into an activity is the urge
towards selfpreservation that lies deep in any living creature. That is why man
cannot want his selfdestruction; he only wants the Good, understood as that
which promotes its own selfpreservation.
If, however, we exclusively define the Good as man's selfpreservation,
man's different attempts to achieve this would lead to mutual destruction. If I

own, the misfortune I could inflict on someone would naturally be limitless. So
there has to be a further addition to the concept of Good.
The Good, we might add, is not only the instantaneous need .....

<view this essay>.... His ultimate

the colonial militia emerged victorious against the British. However, in
defeating the British another threat to American democracy had been
released. This threat was Washington himself. Washington had the colonial

The Rules Of The Game: Andre’s Arrival At La Coliniere
<view this essay>.... pours down as the guests arrive at the chateau. Those guests that arrive before Andre scurry and hunch over to get inside, which is symbolic of the unpredictable effects of nature on the behavior of formal society. These tendencies of nature surface throughout the film as we see that the society’s attempts to establish rules for love prove unsuccessful. Because the rainstorm coincides with Andre’s arrival, there is a good possibility that Renoir is foreshadowing Andre’s death.
The scene begins as Christine and Madame La Bruyere enter the foyer, talking about children’s sore throats. The two halt as they see the arriving aviator, and Christine’s clenched hands .....
