Star dust relationships
Captain Shakespeare mentor of youth In the movie Stardust, a movie about a boy becoming a man though a journey for love, relationships play a key role in the plot. Temptation sent the main character Tristan on a journey that will change the course of his life. Tristan eventually finds the fallen star and the relationship between Yvaine and Tristan has begun. Tristan and Yvaine learn many things along their journey especially while meeting Captain Shakespeare. The things they learn from Captain Shakespeare are that, there are lifetimes to build seconds to destroy, Tristan becomes a man and they both learn that true love is right in front of them. Tristan’s lust towards Victoria has sent him on a journey to find the fallen star, which has fallen on the other side of the wall, a place where people from England are not to cross. When Tristan finds the star, Yvaine, he takes her on the journey back to the wall. Eventually after a period of time they end up in the clouds where they are picked up by the terrifying captain Shakespeare. Captain Shakespeare is a man hiding something else, something that he wouldn’t show someone he doesn’t trust, hiding the fact that he has a very soft side. He devised a way to get Tristan and Yvaine to the wall. During that time he shows Tristan how to fight and Yvaine to waltz, the whole time trying to hide this soft side he has, even though he is overflowing with joy. He reveals to Yvaine about the known fact that she is a star since she has been glowing brighter every day and he thinks he knows exactly why. This mentor to pupil relationship is one that relates to many different things, such as the kids learning from their parents. The second thing these two learn from Captain Shakespeare is that there are lifetimes to build and seconds to destroy. This means what it sounds like, one has a whole lifetime to build a reputation for them, while yet there are seconds to destroy. Captain Shakespeare is a fine representation of this

    In William Shakespeare’s play, “Macbeth”, one dominant moral is made clear to the audience, do not tempt fate, let nature take its course. Some of the ways that Shakespeare achieves this is through the development of conflicts in the plot and also through dialogue, vivid imagery and metaphors created by the atmosphere in the play. The characters develop in the early acts to identify the protagonist and antagonists to the audience. The characters contribute rhetoric that reveals the disturbing of Shakespeare’s theory of the Great Chain of Being, the natural course of order.…

    The play “Romeo and Juliet” is a devastating love story. In only a matter of few days, to be precise 5 days, unfortunate events unfold. The feud between the Capulets and Montagues, one that no-one knows or what started the feud, caused violence and hatred among the citizens of Verona. Nonetheless, there are people whose actions help lead to the tragic fate of the star-cross lovers and other unnecessary people. People who don’t think twice of their actions until after the consequences. Maybe, just an inference, if they just thought about their actions, the play may have had a different ending.…

    Often throughout our society, we tend to judge people based on our first glance appearance. Many teenagers can relate to this because the moment that they are attracted to someone they see for the first time, they think that they have fallen in love. That is not love, in fact it is the main definition for the term infatuation. Many people are familiar with the story of Romeo and Juliet, which is told to be the “greatest love story” ever to exist. Shakespeare does do a good job on describing a story of two very different people coming together. What he does not do is create a strong relationship between the infatuated lovers. An author that does do a good job at this is John Steinbeck, who wrote Of Mice and Men. Steinbeck describes two main characters (Lennie and George) who are very contrasting to one another, but bring very similar values that lead to a strong relationship. Although Romeo and Juliet do specific things that are on the right track of a good relationship, George and Lennie in Of Mice and Men develop a stronger relationship because they share the same independent goals, they help one another out, and lastly, they fill in each other's missing piece to the puzzle.…

    Many types relationships can develop between people. Relationships can be very simple, others may be complicated, some are healthy, while others may be unhealthy. Relationship can be separated into negative relationships and positive relationships. An example of a negative relationship can be found in Shakespeare’s play, “Romeo and Juliet”. Although relationships can be negative and positive, the relationship between Juliet and her father falls short of the qualities of a strong relationship. A strong relationship requires support, communication and, equality. Juliet and her father’s absence of these traits eventually caused the downfall of their relationship, and finally Juliet’s death.…

    After reading the entire play, the reader can safely say that fate works in mysterious ways. To love and be loved in return is considered by many to be one of the greatest gifts a human being can receive. At the same time, it is thought of as unbearable to love someone you cannot be with. Especially when the reasoning behind limitations is caused by your family's last name. "A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life…Do with their death bury their parents' strife." The stars of the play symbolize the Capulets' and Montagues' ancestors, who crossed the young generations paths, only with the intention to destroy all animosity between the ever-feuding families. "…a third view makes fate the main cause of the final disaster: Romeo and Juliet had to die because they were "star-cross'd."" Leading the young couple to commit suicide…

    Shakespeare wrote the play of two lovers', Romeo and Juliet. Thought to be, one of the greatest, tragic love stories of all time, however, throughout the play, Shakespeare contrasts love with hate at every possible moment. The two themes, love and hate, are like twins separated at birth, brought up in different backgrounds, a totally different society. Combining these two themes, creates curiosity into how 'a pair of star crossed lovers' and an ancient feud of two rivalry family's, can come to together to present, a great and unforgettable love, with fate bringing them to their death.…

    Shakespeare’s language of riddled puns can stupefy some, albeit in a good or bad way. If your position stands at the latter, perhaps, from your own frustration, you lack the perception of his intelligence. While there are no records of his attending school and some may call him stupid (i.e. irritated college students), Shakespeare’s greatness cannot be refuted so easily. It is important to look at all aspects that are pertinent to his notoriety. His plays served for entertainment that had to affordably accommodate many people. To understand the eloquence barrier that time has placed on the language; that this essay, too, shares, we must delve into the issue of rhetorical changes and the often formidable scenarios that his plays illustrate. I also wish to confront that the forefront of modern education (K-12) is sitting sluggishly, if not comfortably, in the pit. There is a form of contradicting solidarity, with a past inclusion of self, comprised of students that do not have to do homework or even study to be considered creditable in this proposed preparatory phase.…
