King and Queen of Hearts in the Court room. The misinterpretations of the couple nearly beheads the Knave of Hearts. From the King’s instruction to “Stand down‚” and the response of “I’m on the floor as it is” (which he finds perfectly acceptable)‚ to the King and Queen’s clear mimicry rather than knowledge of court terminology‚ and finally the King’s odd interpretation of the mysterious poem‚ the Knave swings precariously between life and death (Carroll 105-113). Carroll here illustrates the bare fact

Lear and Comedy.... Lear and Comedy. Strangely enough‚ it is G. Wilson Knight‚ a critic famous (not to say notorious) for a vehemently Christian interpretation of Shakespeare’s plays‚ who notes in The Wheel of Fire some of the comedic aspects of King Lear[1]. Whether or not the harsh moral ecology of King Lear fits comfortably with the Christian ethos of forgiveness‚ structural elements of comedy are plainly present in King Lear‚ quite apart from the sardonic humour of the Fool. Indeed‚ a ‘happy

Fool in King Lear The Fool is Lear’s own stand-up comedian‚ but he’s the only guy that Lear allows to criticize him. But in Shakespeare’s plays‚ he seems to be very intelligent and also a good person. Fool assumes to be Lear’s protector. The Fool is the King’s advocate‚ loyal and honest‚ but he is also able to point out the king’s faults‚ as no one else can. The Fool shares his master’s fate‚ and this reinforces the impression that the Fool’s purpose is to protect Lear until Cordelia can arrive

latitude she could be at (Carroll 20) though she had no clue what longitude or latitude meant. Also using direct characterization‚ Carroll shows Alice growing into an adult when she takes charge at the trial in chapter twelve. In this chapter‚ the Knave is on trial for stealing tarts. After making quick judgment without any evidence‚ the queen quickly orders "off with his head."(Carroll 116) Alice tells her that it is "stuff and nonsense"(Carroll 116) then‚ after arguing with the queen‚ Alice asks

I feel like that Iago’s is a talented and tactful about how he gets revenge on Othello until he died (Christofides‚ 2010). In the beginning of the play‚ Iago is talking to Roderigo about how he was passed up for Lieutenant. RODERIGO 35 “By heaven‚ I rather would have been his hangman.” IAGO 36 “Why‚ there’s no remedy. ’Tis the curse of service.

This in turn then encourages an increase in plant‚ bird and animal life along the routeway‚ creating a diverse ecosystem - such as along the M4 corridor‚ which has become a home to kestrels and other birds of prey due to the increase in the number of insects and small mammals who inhabit the area. In addition‚ some human activities along routeways can affect the types of plant species that can be found there. For example‚ the spreading

English poet and priest Gerard Manley Hopkins is admired for the highly original use of rhythm in his poetry‚ a quality that can be seen in the following poems‚ “The Windhover‚” “Pied Beauty‚” and “Hurrahing in Harvest.” A windhover‚ also known as a kestrel‚ is a small type of falcon. These three poems express Hopkins’s devotion to the Catholic faith‚ as well as his fascination with the natural world. Like most of Hopkins’s poetry‚ the poems were first published in 1918‚ nearly 20 years after his death
