The costumes of the thespians feature masks in fixed expressions; consequently, the actors must not only carry on dramatically to convey thematic meaning, but to effectively convey the different emotions of their characters. Technical elements like lighting and props, or lack thereof, add to the symbolism of the play. For example, at 01.16.39, Oedipus comes forth from the palace in shadow with a dark veil about his face, eluding to his loss of sight; yet, in contrast…

During my initial research on Greek legends, I was most interested in the tale of Achilles and Patroclus, which lead me to the myth of Ianthe and Iphis. Theirs a tale is a familiar one now, after the advent of studies in Queer Theory in the last couple of decades.

Sydney Carton is probably the most dynamic Character in A Tale of Two Cities. With barely and information about him, Dickens keeps us wondering why he is the way he is. He’s a brilliant and handsome 25-year-old lawyer who is very successful. But instead, he is known as a drunken man, stumbling along the street. At the court we saw as he “sat leaning back, with his torn gown half off him, his untidy wig put on”, making him look sloppy and disorganized. He is depicted as wasting his brilliance and…

I will argue that the behavior of the female characters in the Aeneid are irrational, rebellious and pose various threats to the Roman cause. The actions of the women are often in deep contrast to the events fated to happen. This depiction of women is significant because it allows the men, who are often the cause of their irrationality, to exist as the rational and restrained beings in this epic. Dido, the queen of Carthage and Aeneas’s unintended lover, is a prime example of the depiction of…
