... Like It” were a few of them. Two major tragedies were also written. “Romeo and Juliet” and “Julius Caesar.” Shakespeare’s third period included his greatest tragedies and mean comedies. “Hamlet,” “Othello,” “Antony and Cleopatra,” and “Macbeth” were a few of the tragedies. Three other writings suggested bitter tragedies. They were “Trolius and Cressida,” “Coriolanus,” and “Timon of Athens.” The dark ...
492: Agatha Christie
... undervalued by the literary establishment, and those who write them seldom run off with the Pulitzer Prize. And yet most of the fines works of fiction from the "Orestia" to "Hamlet" have been concerned with murder (Mortimer, p.52). Poet and critic W.H. Auden confessed: "For me, as for many others, the reading of a detective story is an addiction ...

... that the actor is missing and the show can t go on. When they find the Shakespeare actor at the mercy of the Clantons, they listen to him recite the Hamlet speech.

494: Michael Jordan
... off his illustrious career. (P.84) Jack Mcallum ends this fine article with one final point to get across.

... regarding their behavior. The reason for Katherine s shrewish demeanor is never given in the play, though many directors have interpreted it as an act to discourage suitors, much like Hamlet s feigned madness. Others have attributed it to sibling rivalry between Katherine and her sister Bianca. In any case, no clear rationale is given to the audience as to the ...
496: The Role Of Women In Utopia An
... challenged its position at the bottom of Bradley's hierarchy of major tragedies. Women appear to be regarded as slightly less important in "Othello". To quote Alan Sinfield's book "Hamlet's special providence", the play has been called a "domestic tragedy", which in "masculinist criticism" implies a downgraded species of tragedy. To downgrade this is slightly inappropriate for a story ...

... is used, the amount of ink and the number of pages in the story.It would tell us nothing about the power and strength of the play. Interpretive approaches of Hamlet can be either good or bad. An interpretation that it is a play about "being happy" would be a bad interpretation, while a critique on revenge would be more accurate ...
498: Canterbury Tales: Who is the Narrator?
... s been dead for 600 years, and without knowing more about author or audience, it's dangerous to equate an author automatically with his/her characters(2).

Neither was Chaucer ...
499: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
... is a classic that will continue to be enjoyed for decades to come because of its greatness. Great works of art will never wither nor die. Following the footsteps of “Hamlet” and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, “Ferris Bueller” will be one of the greatest portrayals of human society to ever exist.
500: Redemtion And Salvation In A T
