... Romeo is about to
drink the poison he says, "Here's to my love! [Drinks.] O true apothecary!
Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die. [Falls.]" (Act 5, scene 3, line
122). These quote show how Romeo loves Juliet. So much he will die to be with
her." The next quotes show how Juliet's feelings are mutual to Romeo's.
After Juliet wakes up from her death like coma she sees Romeo's dead
corpse and notices that he had never got the message from the friar. "O churl!
Drunk all, and left no friendly drop to help me after? I will kiss his lips.
Haply some poison yet doth hang on them. To make me die with a restorative."
The next quote shows how the poison has ...
... This happens to Oedipus when he leaves Corinth and runs to Thebes. He goes from boy to king. Oedipus intended on avoiding letting the prophecy come true so he escaped from what he thought was his mother and father because he cared. In doing this he kills his father of birth, and then he frees the people of Thebes from the plague of the Sphinx and inherits the throne.
It is no surprise Oedipus didn�t go insane. I guess to the result of this he gouged his eyes out. He did so many good things for his people and when it came time to find the killer of King Lais he did everything in his power to find them. He became his own worst enemy. "I am at the edge of ...

get home. This is an example of a common communistic society.
Through out the whole play, women are being accused of witchcraft.
A man could have never been accused of witchcraft in those days. Men were
the dominant gender. Tituba is a black servant who was spotted in the woods
supposedly practicing witchcraft. She is blamed for the crime, probably
because she is a servant of the lower class. But as the play goes on, a
more classless society comes into effect. That is when the women of the
upper class get blamed for the crime.
At the time of the play, women were afraid ...

introduced by a Wellesian voice over. In Touch of Evil, Welles parts with his
usual opening style in favor of a much more dramatic method of introduction;
this creates a less obvious, yet more intimate initial interaction between the
characters on the screen and the viewer in the seat.
Foremost, Welles's legendary long shot opens the film. These three
minutes and twenty seconds have many effects upon the viewer in introducing this
movie. The primary purpose of this shot is to slowly draw the viewer in to the
story by limiting the viewer's role in the film; he doesn't allow the viewer to
actively enter the world of the film. Rather, he constrains ...

pessimistic view of the world.
In his middle years of his life, Krapp retained this rigid and anal
retentive nature. He kept these tapes in which he would constantly reevaluate
his own life and try to always improve it, using these tapes as "help before
embarking on a new retrospect" (1629). He had also stored these various tapes
organized in boxes with their location written in a ledger. Yet in his latter
years, there is an apparent decay of this regimental attitude. His very
appearance is an indication of this decline. He is described as wearing "Rusty
black narrow trousers to short for him. Rusty black sleeveless ...
... women are portrayed
as mere objects of Jonathan Harker�s sexual fantasy.
The second scene in the movie in which an elaboration was used was
when Dracula lured Lucy Westenra from her house at night. In the novel,
Lucy is known to be a frequent sleepwalker who at night is needed to be
watched by her friend and Jonathan�s wife to be, Mina. The novel
describes this particular scene through Mina�s journal. It begins with
Lucy sleepwalking and Mina eventually tracking her down only to see a tall
slender being hovering over Lucy as if almost kissing her. However, in the
movie Lucy is portrayed as a very flirtatious women who is very vulnerable
to men. There i ...

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 risk-taking in the ad. Milk is included as if
to say, "Even though these two young people are probably going to have sex
when the game is finished, they are wholesome, good people." Milk works
much better than using soft drinks, for example. If the makers of the ad
had used cola for instance, the reader c ...

5. Internal conflicts are what move the plot along for the most
part. Throughout the story the characters are trying to live with who they
are and also trying to please everyone else. The internal conflict of
acceptance is what they all have to deal with and that is what moves the
plot along.
Point of View
1. The author uses a lot of stage direction to set the mood for
each scene. Musical instruments define each character and help visualize
the mood and attitude for that character. The stage directions are also
important to the plot by allowing the reader to visualize ...
... plays a major part in the story. Everything starts in the
very beginning when Montegue and Capulet servants just happen to cross
paths in a public place. This is a chance meeting. Coincidence cannot be
involved now because it is too early in the story. Also by chance, the
servants are talking of their hatred of the other family and there
unwillingness to bear insults. The opening line of the play is, "Gregory,
on my word, we'll not carry coals. "(pg.6)" Meaning he will not stand for
any insults. This results in the fight that forces Prince Escalus to make
the decree that "If ever you disturb our streets again your lives shall pay

In the Shakespearean play that we study in grade eleven English titled
Macbeth, wicked and evil witches deceive their victim, Macbeth, by
equivocating his prophecies. As a result of this new "half-true" knowledge,
Macbeth makes rash decisions that lead him to paranoia, grief, and his
downfall.
The first set of prophecies the witches reveal to Macbeth, in act 1,
scene 3, was that Macbeth is to become thane of Glamis, thane of Cawdor and
that he shall be king. They also said "Thou shalt get kings, though thou
be none." Macbeth was shocked when the first two prophecies came true. In
act 1, scene 3 he spoke of his fears, saying "unfix my hair, ...
