... that the daughter which had loved him the most (and who he loved the most) has broken his heart. He is suspicious and bans her because he thinks that she is the only daughter who doesn't love him. It is Lear's rashness which prevents him from seeing that she is speaking the truth. It is the same rashness which leads him to believe that Goneril and Regan are being truthful. Kent believes that Lear is wrong and openly tells him so. He says in a straightforward manner that he is both mad and an old man . Kent believes that Lear's decision was a "hideous rashness." He continues to speak, even as Lear asks him to stop. He tells Lear to see better as he is banned. It is in Kent's n ...

... in the movie, but neither was the character of Gamut. The movie not only left out a character, it left out other scenes. One such scene would be when Uncas Chickengook and Hawkeye join Cora, Alice, Duncan, Maugua, and Gamut.* When these characters join the party, they tell Duncan that Maugua is a Huron spy. Duncan decides to question Maugua, but when he does, Maugua runs away. When Maugua begins to run, Duncan wants to chase him, but Uncas, Chickengook, and Hawkeye see that it is not wise to chase him, because there might be more of his tribe near. This is not only dissimilar to the movie, but in the movie, Uncas, Chickengook and Hawkeye join Cora, Alice Duncan, Maugua, and many troops. T ...

... (line 21) Iago has been beaten by a Florentine with (as Iago thinks) less military ability than him. This deep wound commands Iago to revenge. Iago cannot bear Othello's being a superior figure. Iago comments on Othello's going to war as "Another of his fathom they have none/ To lead their business." (lines 153-154) Iago insults Othello's skin color profusely behind his back. As the first part of his plan, Iago seeks to arouse Brabantio to the fact that the Moor has "robbed" (line 88) him of his daughter. Iago refers to Othello as an "old black ram/ tupping your white ewe." This tasteless reference pictures Othello's ugly black skin with Desdemona's beautiful white skin. Iago c ...

... the trials. He suggests that John Proctor should have a lawyer, but this request is denied by Danforth. He claims that a lawyer is not necessary because only the demon and the witness are important. Actually, he is conveying that the court alone will decide on the witness' probity based on his own words. Hale realizes that John Proctor is an honest man when he would willingly ruin his own reputation in the hopes of exposing Abigail as a whore. He absolutely cannot believe that the court won't accept his testimony as the truth. Hale thinks that the children are irresponsible fakers. He denounces the entire proceeding and leaves. Ironically, Rev. Hale returns to Salem to encourage the accuse ...

... and friends very well. From this and many other incidents throughout the play we see what a tolerant and adaptable person Stella is. Stan and Stella's relationship is far from ideal.

... Nunnery Scene. She of course has no idea of the state he is in, and it is possible that she thinks his condition has indeed been caused by her following her father's instructions and refusing to see him. In the conflict between her love for Hamlet and her duty of obedience to her father's orders, she grants to Polonius' wishes. Hamlet, however, is less obedient to the orders of the ghost, his father. In essence, "pretty Ophelia," as Claudius calls her, is the most innocent victim of Hamlet's revenge. Attracted by her sweet beauty after the depressing event of his father's death, Hamlet had fallen in love with her. She had "sucked the honey of his music vows" and returned his affecti ...

... people don’t even realize that they are playing this part. In Romeo and Juliet, one of the causes is the ancient feud between the families. Tybalt says “What, drawn and talk of peace? I hate the word, as I hate hell, all Montagues and thee.” (1.1.61-62) The second is the instigator, who is usually very mean, and something that they do or say, is usually the cause of conflict.

... Calpurnia's dream with a double meaning, “Your statue spouting blood in many pipes, in which so many smiling Romans bathed, signifies that from you great Rome shall suck reviving blood, and that great men shall press for tinctures, stains, relics, and cognizance.” (JC. II. ii. 85-90). Decius successfully executed his role in the conspiracy which led to the assassination of Caesar. Another very influential minor conspirator was Cinna, who aided in persuading Brutus to join the conspiracy. Getting Brutus involved in the conspiracy was crucial because of his close relationship with Caesar and his prominence with both the senators and the common people. Cinna was assigned, by Ca ...
