His eventual corruption was also due to outside influences such as the Witches and Lady Macbeth. Malcolm’s judgement of Macbeth and Lady…

Macbeth, by William Shakespeare, is a play in which one scene in particular determines the fate of the main character, Macbeth. The manipulation scene, Act 1 Scene 7, is a key turning point in the character of Macbeth as we see him change from a noble man to a man who considers the murder of his own King. This change in Macbeth is due to no fault other than the corrupting nature of his ambition and also his distorted view of masculinity. Shakespeare successfully uses characterisation, key scene…

As I passed through downtown Atlanta, I couldn't help admire the home of the Braves, not just because it was an architectural wonder but because it brought back to mind that very first lesson when Professor Van Huevelen sparked my curiosity when he said we find that there are some things in this world that are repeatable.

The Crucible is a play by Arthur Miller. It is a story based on the Salem Witch Trials. There were some changes to get a message out of the play but still it was said it was very accurate. There were many conflicts in the story, which made this boring play a bit more interesting and created a bunch of drama. It is always important to be honest, because lying stays inside for your whole life, and being true to yourself keeps your dignity. In the play when Abigail tells them that Elizabeth is a…

The Westminster Confession of Faith was written in the year 1646, titled “The Humble Advice of the Assembly,” in London, under the authority of King Charles I. During the period leading up to the Confession, in the battles of civil discontent with Scotland, the Royal Crown and Church of England had to quench the appeal for religious freedoms that the Episcopal Orthodox government of the past could not placate. Forty years prior, under King James I, the Puritan views which had been so ingrained…

As human beings we are very ethical and opinionated. Based upon the views that we have, because of the culture that we grew up in, determines what we view as right or wrong; good and bad. For most people, they do not have to have a reason or rhyme of liking an object, idea or even person. They take what they want and go to extreme measures to get their way. The Epic of Gilgamesh would be a perfect example of this theory because within that culture, there were wild men, multiple gods, and kings.…
