“Justice and power must be brought together‚ so that whatever is just may be powerful‚ and whatever is powerful may be just” were words said by Blaise Pascal (1623-1663). If mercy was really that important‚ a great mind like Blaise Pascal would have inserted “mercy” in his quote. Justice is by far the most critical component of society in the King Lear universe.

serious play with a happy ending or enough jokes throughout the play to lighten the mood. I consider the ‘Merchant of Venice’ by William Shakespeare a tragicomedy as both tragedy and comedy can be seen throughout the play. There are many factors that give proof to this statement. To begin with‚ one of the factors of a tragedy is the presence of a tragic hero. The protagonist‚ the real merchant of Venice‚ Antonio is the tragic hero. He is sad from the beginning to the end of the play. In the beginning

English Composition II A Crime of Compassion & the Quality of Mercy The Merciful Crime Huttman’s and Rosenblatt’s essays make mercy and compassionate killing difficult to analyze rather than being easily determined.

My opinion is that in a sense Huttman’s was more acceptable than Roswell because of the state his wife
