The Missing Dialogue In Antigone
Number of words: 1024 - Number of pages: 4.... with a
question of romantic love and/or loyalty. Family bonds and loyalty are the
crucial issues instead.
The central question of this play is a political one. What should have
more power within a society, the divine laws of the gods or the laws of the land
and the mortal rulers? Antigone is a representation of the divine laws of the
gods, and she remains steadfast to her beliefs that the wishes of the gods
should overpower the wishes of the king. Creon, on the other hand, is the
representation of the laws of the land and the mortal ruler of society. He, .....

Pulp Fiction
Number of words: 1646 - Number of pages: 6.... wasted no time in introducing the first biblical reference
when the two men try to retrieve the suitcase containing Wallace's belongings.
When Vega opened the suitcase, he used the combination "666" to open the
suitcase, and when he opened it, the contents glowed a golden-orange color.
This was obviously an introductory attempt to show the audience that the
suitcase held Marcellus' soul. Perhaps Tarantino was trying to show that the
people that stole the suitcase were the devils pawns, and these two hitmen were
angels trying to retrieve stolen property. .....

Barbara Walters' Interview With Christopher Reeves
Number of words: 443 - Number of pages: 2.... a universal truth among those that are essentially ethical.
There is no doubt in my mind that Barbara Walters is an ethical journalist,
MOST of the time. However, in today's highly competitive world, where
Nielson ratings are god, there is no longer a place for journalistic
integrity in a profit based field. It is up to the journalist to determine
whether or not they are comfortable with what they are doing and how they
do it.
Yet the question still remains, was everything that Barbara Walters
did ethical. No. There were times in my mind when she should h .....

Evil In Women And Its Effect On Macbeth
Number of words: 748 - Number of pages: 3.... and the witches, succumbing to
greed, corrupted Macbeth.
Lady Macbeth's actions parallel those of the witches. The witches
planted the idea that Macbeth should become king. Lady Macbeth followed through
with this idea by pushing Macbeth to kill Duncan. "... a very definition of the
weird sisters - calling on them to unsex her to cram her with cruelty from top
to toe..." (Bloom 29). This quote illustrates the connection between Lady
Macbeth and the witches, showing us that they both participated in Macbeth's
moral decline. Shakespeare, it seems, utilizes t .....

To clustering filberts, and I'll teach thee to get
Young scamels from the rock. Does't though attend me?
Stephano: I do. For all this service what want'st you in return.
Caliban: I ask but one simple service. The death of my tyrant
master.
Stephano: You ask me to murder for you?
Caliban: I ask only that you remove your only opponent in making
me your vassal.
Stephano: Well bargain'd for a monster such as thee. I sh .....

it.)
ANN: (To Romeo) Do not be afraid, come forward. (Beckons with hand)
ROMEO: What is this?
ANN: Sir, I apologize for this sudden interruption of your day. Perhaps you
would like me to explain?
ROMEO: (Steps onto stage out of light beam. Beam dies) What has happened to me?
Have I died? Is this the other world? What do you want of me?
ANN: No, you are not dead, rather transported to another time...
ROMEO: You talk no sense! Your head must be full of bugs and insects! And, if
