Drinkwater acknowledged also, that not simply in Shakespeare's modest society, shepherds, plant experts, and serving men, yet furthermore in his rulers and rulers, he reflected the humanity with which he was normal in Stratford.

    Miranda is “Eve of an enchanted Paradise” (Works of W. Shakespeare vol 16), the meaning of innocence, beauty and simplicity. As soon as she meets Ferdinand, she is ready “to place her life, her love, her service beneath his feet” (Works of Shakespeare vol 16), which is opposed to what Fowles’ Miranda is doing. Though both are well educated, beautiful, they have different meanings of what life is about and what they should do in order to achieve fulfilment. Contrary to the cultural background, Fowles’s Miranda is a survivor, a woman who once being captured, learns to love life, while Shakespeare’s Miranda is fragile, always protected by the hardships of life by her loving father. Both Mirandas are imprisoned in a virtual cell, derived their…

    Many scholars, writers, and poets have pondered the question, “Was Shakespeare really Shakespeare?” They’ve done the research, analyzed his works, and compared it to other writers of the time, and there is some pretty damning evidence convincing us that William Shakespeare really isn’t William Shakespeare. What we could assume about his education shows that in school, he was taught reading and writing and not much else. William did not travel very far from his home, leaving us to think “How did someone with little education and even littler knowledge about the countries he “wrote” about, write such marvelous and wonderful pieces of work?” Perhaps “William Shakespeare” was a pseudonym for a more profound, more skilled writer such as Christopher Marlowe or Francis Bacon. Undoubtedly, William Shakespeare is not William Shakespeare someone with very little life experience, and education could not have written such intricately…

    One of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies ever written, King Lear, is one that deals with many aspects of human condition. It is recognized as a difficult and complex play, but Kurosawa’s Japanese interpretation, Ran, allows the audience to come to a better and more obvious understanding of the events and emotions that are portrayed in King Lear. Both the play and movie portray themes and issues that deal with foolishness, revenge and selfishness. These factors brought upon the catastrophes for both King Lear and Lord Hidetora. A very vital symbol of each representation of Shakespeare’s play is through the power of nature with the storm. With the extensive use of the storm creating the main source of imagery and symbolism, it becomes possible for the audience to comprehend just how strongly the emotions effected the tragic heroes, allowing them to see the change that each character undergoes from their poor judgment and stubbornness. As King Lear and Lord Hidetora give away their power, based on the satisfaction to their ego, they are eventually driven to madness and the storms intensify the natural order of things as they are thrown into havoc. King Lear and Hidetora struggle for deliverance once pathetic fallacy comes into play in determining the transformation of each protagonist through cultural influence, relationship with offspring and self-recognition after destruction.…

    The interplay of fear and foresight is a significant factor upon individuals making potentially life-altering decisions. Fear is the distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain et cetera whether the threat is real or imaged; it is a feeling or condition of being afraid. Foresight is a view of the future brought about by the act of looking forward which may occur through premonitions, feelings, or dreams. When these forces are at work in an individual’s life a person is called upon to make critically important decisions that often result in outcomes that change the course of one’s life forever. The results are life-changing and irreversible for two young lovers when William Shakespeare, a man ahead of his time, displays extraordinary…

    When Shakespeare was a kid going to grammar school, a school open to boys only by the way! they learned Latin, Greek and rhetoric, persuasion through logical argument. Students read Latin and Greek writers to learn about the history of ancient Greece and "the glory that was Rome” and this material was translated by them into English or French after many hours of work. I 'm glad the school curriculum of the 21 st century has evolved and we no longer spend our days doing boring stuff like that! Their old-fashioned, subjects that have little relevance in the modern world of the internet and space travel. The question is: shouldn 't we allow our education system to further evolve and file Shakespeare in the same drawer where we 've stuck Homer, Plato and Ovid? Given the society of North America in the 21 st century, Shakespeare 's relevance is declining with each new technical advance. The purpose of this essay is to prove isn 't it time to address this question head on, even at the risk of causing legions of English teachers to collapse in horror?…

    Magic and supernatural occurrences in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Richard III, and The Tempest are used to create a surreal world to confuse and resolve conflicts in each play. Magic provides the audience with an escape from reality and the comfort of the play’s unrealistic nature. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a love potion from a magical flower is used and misused to provide comic relief and resolution to love’s difficulties, supernatural ghosts are used to condemn a horrific murderer in Richard III to ensure his downfall and deserved death and finally, magic from Prospero’s book in The Tempest is used for his righteous revenge and harmony amongst the characters. The Duke of Athens, Theseus, states, “the best in this kind are but shadows; and the / worst are no worse, if imagination amend them” providing Shakespeare’s use of magic in his various plays is a real participant in the entertainment and structure in them. Magic and supernatural occurrences are used by Shakespeare to create illusionary situations to resolve bigger conflicts, such as love’s difficulties, revenge, and justice.…
