the effect of unfortunate things that happened earlier in her life. She was born in Germany and married a man in Iowa named Tom Brown who eventually died in prison. This traumatic event may have affected her psychologically which could have contributed to her committing the poisonings. When Tom Brown was alive, they lived in Chicago where Sarah was again victim to a terrible tragedy. In eighteen seventy-two, she was a witness to the terrible Chicago fire. This was a terrible tragedy where many people were burned and killed. There is definitely a potential for someone who lived through this to develop serious psychological issues. Another conflict in her life was that her daughter Bertha was the child of another man, named Story.

As an actor, when Hamlet says, “it is not, nor cannot, come to good,” I would look straight out into the audience to highlight the foreshadowing he is talking about. Lastly, Hamlet is once again drowning in pity saying that he must break his heart and keep his mouth shut. I would be sure to play up the self pity because Hamlet is going through a terrible tragedy in his life and Hamlet is the type of person that would tweet about how bad of a day he is having if the only thing that went wrong was…

By defination,the beginnig is that which does not presuppose anything else to have gone before it. Although Sophocles' play focuses attention only on the last day of Oedipus' long rule over Thebes, we do not feel the need of any information about what has gone before, when we read the prologue of the play. In fact earlier events are related by Jocasta and Oedipus in the liter part of the play. The middle is that which is necessary and logical sequence of the beginning. The first episode of…
