.... money backing him. Bassanio then goes to his friend Antonio to try to secure a loan to provide for his wooing. O my Antonio, had I but the means/To hold a rival place with one of them [other suitors]/I have a mind presages me such thrift/That I should questionless be fortunate!" (Shakespeare, Merchant 1.1 173-176) However, Antonio has, "neither the money, nor commodity/to raise a present sum" but urges Bassanio to go through Venice to try to secure a loan using Antonio's bond as credit (Shakespeare, Merchant 1.1 178-179). One of the resident money-lenders of Venice is an individual called Shylock, a person of Jewish descent .....

.... events, as his own experience aboard the ship proves. He was able to find in the dark the commission for his own death; by chance, he had in his possession his father's signet for sealing the forged document. No less by chance, the pirates proved kind and, for sufficient compensation, they returned him to Denmark. Throughout the play, after we have itemized Claudius' major crimes, the Prince does not receive an answer to his question, one which is basic to his status as a moral symbol in the play: - is't not perfect conscience, To quit him with this arm? And is't not to be damn'd, To let this canker of out nature come In further evil? It has b .....

.... disappear Macbeth says,” stay, you imperfect speakers, tell me more… I know I am thane of Glamis, but how of Cawdor? the thane of Cawdor lives… and to be king… speak, I charge you.” (I, ii, 70-78) The witches make Macbeth curious, he wants to know how he is to be named thane of Cawdor and king. The second person to influence Macbeth is his wife, Lady Macbeth. I also think she plays a big role in influencing Macbeth to kill Duncan. I think this because in Act II Scene vii, Lady Macbeth explains to Macbeth the plan of murdering Duncan, and when she is through Macbeth says,” If we should fail?” (I, vii, 58) Lady Macbeth answers by saying,” We fail… but screw .....

.... His problem is quite ironic considering the fact that Will is pure genius, with a photographic memory and an incredibly strong working knowledge of various aspects in life. Through the words expressed by scores of poets and writers throughout history, Will is able to understand love only in the abstract sense. His psychologist, Shawn, says that we all need a soulmate -- someone who touches us and opens our minds in ways we never thought possible. Will undoubtedly challenges others day after day, and that is why so many people were drawn to him out of sheer amazement. But, they weren't afraid to get to know him, and they all chose to let him into their liv .....

.... bed, Doc Holiday, got up and went with Wyatt to help him slay them. This is one way that a friendship can form between two people. A further example of the friendship between Wyatt and Holiday was when the Dalton gang had come into town with their guns and went into the O.K. Corral. They 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 .....

.... mistake that was actually made long, long ago and cannot be reversed. This tragic flaw is of course Oedipus killing his father Lauis, and then marrying Jocasta, his mother. We realize that these actions have taken place much earlier in the story than the characters do. However, both of these events actually took many years ago. The fall from grace in Oedipus Rex is when Oedipus, Jocasta, and all the other characters in the story realize that Oedipus actually did murder Laius and that Jocasta is indeed his mother as well as his wife. This occurs rather quickly, very close to the end of the play. The audience sees this coming long before it actually does .....

.... enjoying his new life. Oedipus is trying to escape his fate but manages only to immerse himself in it. It is directly implied by the blind prophet that Oedipus is the murderer of his own father, and the new husband of his recently widowed mother, “So I charge you, then/ Abide by the proclamation you have made: / From this day forth/ Never speak again to these men or me; / You yourself are the pollution of this country” (Sophocles 1027). When Oedipus left his stepfather because of the oracles prediction it is unequivocal that he is trying to escape his own fate. When Oedipus is on his way from Corinth he runs into his real father and kills him and then defeats .....

.... the movie, I think it is accurate in the sense of the fighting style of the English. The "proper" way of war might be fine in Europe, but against the Indians, standing in a line with bright red coats is not the way to win. "…the soldiers' uniforms splendid – though (and that's a historic fact) idiotically ornate and impractical for warfare. It wasn't until about 1916 that the British and the French saw the light and stopped wearing all that Day-Glo, easy target colors" (Prof. Jahiel). For example, at the beginning of the movie, Magua killed one soldier marching in the line, and the guy next to him didn't even do anything until the commander said to attack .....
