When Hamlet exclaims that “The play’s the thing/ Wherein I’ll catch the conscience of the King,” Shakespeare suggests that life is like a play, full of actors, and expects the audience to identify their morals by watching the scene unfold (2.2.633-34). Throughout the tragedy, characters like Claudius, Hamlet and Ophelia are forced to hide their true intentions and establish a new persona for themselves, whether as a worthy King, a mad Prince or a secure woman. Although the new identities help…

drill” the coach says. (The girl) says to her friends “ isn't the baseline a little bit like the Endoplasmic Reticulum of a cell?” The Endoplasmic Reticulum transports materials from one part of the cell to another part like the baseline that shows the foul ball territory and fair territory and shows where you are supposed to run so you aren't…

portraying the wickedness and moral disintegration of both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. The images of darkness and night symbolize evil in both mankind and Macbeth. One example of this is in the first scene of the play, when the witches chant, “Fair is foul, and foul is fair; / Hover through the fog and filthy air” (1.1.12-13). The witches in the play are evil, and the fact that William Shakespeare associated evil with “fog and filthy air” is a form…

cannot run with the ball he must throw it from the spot he is in, you could only hold the ball with your hands, there would be no shouldering, holding, pushing, striking, or tripping against any opponent. A foul would be counted if hitting the ball with the fist, if either sides make three fouls it would be counted as a goal for the other team, a goal would be made when the ball is thrown into the basket, if the ball goes out of bounds and into the fields it would be played by the first person…

The game’s title screen displays a dagger with the word Macbeth in the middle. This is meant to represent the dagger used in the murder of Duncan, and I thought that this would be a good way to develop the motif of the play before the game even begins. The colouring around the dagger is pale yellow and blues, this is meant to give the dagger an ethereal feeling, which relates to both the supernatural aspects of the play and Macbeth’s mental state. The music in the title screen is called…

Eventually, the parents of the newborn got into a nasty argument that led to a divorce. The father of the newborn had a hectic lifestyle so my mother would spend significant number of hours at her…

lyrics of the song King Nothing is about a king who desires everything. Once the king eventually rises to power and gains everything he wanted, he then finds power in greed. The king proceeds to acquire what he asks for and then soon loses it in one foul swoop, due to the extent of his greed. The protagonist in Macbeth is, no surprise, Macbeth. During the play, Macbeth undergoes the exact same need for greed as the king from the Metallica song King Nothing. Macbeth starts out as a humble…

The roaring twenties, also known as the jazz age, was a time of change, celebration and conflict. Many people were welcoming change and forgetting old traditions.

She fought to hold the bagel she’d had for breakfast down as she observed the businessmen and women in their expensive clothes rush in and out of the offices. The atmosphere here was busy and fast paced. Discouraged, she second-guessed herself now as she hid behind her dark, long, wavy tresses and realized she didn’t belong here. The positive attitude that helped push her through the front door and make it to the receptionist was fading fast. Despite her reservations, she was determined to break…
