This scene is the one in which Ralph Clarke is auditioning some of the convicts for some parts in the play for which he has struggled to get permission to put on. The scene starts off with just Ralph. I think I would tell the actor to look studious and intellectual‚ as Ralph would be making every effort to make the play to a very high standard so he can impress Captain Phillip in the hope of getting the promotion he has desired for some time. The mood should then change as soon as "Shitty" Meg

Great Gatsby‚ written by F. Scott Fitzgerald‚ introduces the reader to scenes of violence that contribute to the meaning of the complete work. Wealthy‚ powerful characters such as Tom Buchanan are the major causes of violence introduced because they are selfish and careless. Through an accident that killed Myrtle Wilson‚ or the passionate murder of an innocent man‚ Fitzgerald incorporates themes of the novel. The violent act that begins the downward spiral in The Great Gatsby is when Tom Buchanan

This paradox will occur many times in the play. How can something be fair and foul at the same time? Situationally‚ I think this makes more sense when you consider it in the sense of an outcome. War can be foul‚ but the outcome fair…depending what side you are on. 2. The reader ’s first impression of Macbeth actually

Paragraph 1 The extreme violence seen in Act 3 scene 1‚ serves to remind the audience that despite the romantic aspect of Romeo and Juliet the play is mainly concerned with the conflicts developing from concepts of pride and honor‚ which were important aspects of society during Shakespearean times. The universal aspect of violence and conflict is conveyed through the quote‚ “Romeo slew him; he slew Mercutio who now the prince of his dear blood doth owe?” stated by Prince Escalus. The quote shows
