.... love with Desdemona and figures he would do anything to have her as his own. Iago says about Rodriego in Act I, Scene III, line 355, “Thus do I ever make my fool purse.” By playing on his hopes, Iago is able to swindle money and jewels from Rodriego, making himself a substantial profit, while using Rodriego to forward his other goals. He also thinks quick on his feet and is able to improvise whenever something unexpected occurs. When Cassio takes hold of Desdemona’s hand before the arrival of the Moor Othello, Iago says “With as little a web as this I will ensnare as great a fly as Cassio” (Act II, Scene I, line 163). His cunning and craftiness make him a .....

.... secure, just as he does with Macduff's kid and his wife later in the play. Macbeth doesn't want Banquo to tell anyone of his intentions of becoming king and he doesn't want any of Banquo's descendants to reign as king so he decides to kill him. At the royal banquet Macbeth has a delusion of Banquo's ghost. Later when Macbeth hears of Macduff's flee to England he is very angry so he takes it out on Macduff's wife and kid. He then meets up with the witches and is very fearful and then very secure in the apparitions prophecies and is also very angry when he hears of how one of Banquo's descendants will indeed be on the throne. At the end when Malcolm and his .....

.... that Hamlet's irrational behavior emerges only in front of certain individuals shows he was only acting. He acts insane in front of Polonius, Claudius, Gertrude and Ophelia, while remaining perfectly normal in front of Horatio, Marcellus, the players and the gravedigger. Hamlet convinces Ophelia of his madness by going into her room “with a look so piteous in purport as if he had been loosed out of hell to speak of horrors,” (2.1.92)and grabbed her and examined her face. Then he let out ”a sigh so piteous and profound as it did seem to shatter all his bulk and end his being.” (2.1.106) After that incident, Polonius believes, that Hamlet's madness “is the .....

.... is no pain. The cultural attitudes of this film in respect to death and afterlife have undertones of the Christian attitudes toward death and afterlife, although large differences do exist. The central cultural attitudes toward death and afterlife in this film can be summed up by a quotation from Jake's chiropractor (who can also be seen as his guardian angel), who said, "The only thing that burns in hell is the part of you that won't let go of your life, your memories, your attachments, they burn it all away. But they aren't punishing you, they're freeing your soul." The chiropractor also says that the way he sees it, "If you're frightened of dieing and you k .....

.... or by desires for the qualities or possessions of another.” Roderigo is foolish and even at times unusually feeble-minded. This explained partially by Roderigo's jealousy: he is infatuated with Desdemona and has been for some time. He is willing to do anything to win her love. He is jealous that Desdemona loves Othello and not him. In accordance with the definition of jealousy, Roderigo desires the possessions of another. It is this jealousy which moves him to do many evil things in the play. He pays Iago large amounts of money to conjure up a scheme to acquire Desdemona. He gives in to Iago at the beginning of the play. In effect he has b .....

.... exceptional suffering and calamity slowly being worn in as well as it being contrasted to happier times. The play also depicts the troubled parts in his life and eventually his death that is instantaneous caused by the suffering and calamity. There is the feeling of fear in the play as well, that makes men see how blind they are not knowing when fortune or something else would be on them. The hero must be of a high status on the chain and the hero also possesses a tragic flaw that initiates the tragedy. The fall of the hero is not felt by him alone but creates a chain reaction which affects everything below him. There must also be the element of chance or .....

.... “in several hands...from several citizens...to great the opinion that Rome holds of his name.” (a1 s2 L105-109) Cassius goes through so much trouble to get to Brutus because he “sits high in all the people’s hearts.” (a1 s3 L157) Cassius goes out of his way to tell Brutus of Caesar’s weaknesses and faults. He eagerly plays upon Brutus’ words as they come from his mouth. Cassius proved himself manipulative in getting Brutus to join the conspiracy. Decius manipulates Caesar’s thinking into leaving the safety of his home. Each reason Caesar brought up to stay in his home, Decius gave him an explanation in which he should forget them and go to the capitol. .....

.... influence, it is important to consider the fact that different cultural groups will have entirely different accounts of the same event. The film, full of Western philosophy, portrays only one side of the story. In viewing the film it is apparent that it is sympathetic towards the plight of the Tibetans. In the beginning of the film one of the monks recites, "May I be the doctor and the medicine, and may I be the nurse for all sick beings in the world until everyone is healed…may I be a bridge, a boat, a ship for all those who wish to cross the water." Later in the film, the Dalai Lama says, "Wisdom and compassion will set us free." As shown through the qu .....
