    about Richard III as a person and the Richard III as a killer. He is honestly one of those people I love to hate but also hate to love. But like I said I honestly really do love him even if he is as vile and horrible as he can be. I guess I have a thing for loving some of the worst people in literature. But Shakespeare really does a great job making a character you feel that you should absolutely despise but gives him traits that make you question it. As a person I honestly pity Richard because

    society through the structural and language features of their texts. Ray Bradbury explores the value of using knowledge and independent thinking rather than blindly following the ‘rules’‚ without a second thought or question. Andrew Niccol uses the reality of scientific methods‚ addressing the responder of the direction society is heading in and the fatal result of the future if we were to mess with the balance of nature.

    ii) The play‚ “Juno and Paycock”‚ by Sean O’ Casey is another comparative text I have studied under the theme of poverty. It is set in the inner city of Dublin during the Irish Civil War. It centres on how does the poverty affect the Boyle family members living in a two-room tenancy in a tenement house at the time of when Dublin had some of the worst slums in Europe. The key moment of the play which draws my attention to the chosen theme is the scene where Juno Boyle told her husband‚ Jack “Captain”

    An Evaluation of Robert H. Davis’ Interpretation of Richard III By: Mr. Michael R. McCaffrey This past Sunday‚ on October 20th around three o’clock in the afternoon‚ I had the pleasure to watch a play that was scripted into history centuries ago. Shakespeare left the world astounded during his time; through witty word play and perfected analogies he was eligible to infatuate not only the people of his time‚ but captivate those of more modern times today. These reenactments

Both men‚ though‚ possessed the same focus and determination‚ which made the comparison and contrast of

However‚ Shakespeare’s use of supernatural themes and motifs in furthering the plot is somewhat out of character in its use in such a type of play; usually such themes and motifs form an unconscious backdrop from which the author
