In Julius Caesar, Caesar deserved his fate because he had many physical weaknesses that held him back, he was…

In William Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet, Shakespeare depicts the indecisive and seemingly suicidal character of Hamlet who has chosen to act insane.

Ned Kelly’s Life Truth There is no doubt that Ned Kelly was repeatedly rejected and ignored, which made him the victim he has to be recognised as. Imagine being accused of crimes that you never did, paying fines for fights you never intended to be in, accused of stealing a horse and getting a longer jail time that the thief did and unfairly sentenced to death when you are only charged with one crime. Ned had been in trouble with the law since he was twelve after he was accused of stealing a…

is innocent because Jay’s testimonies of Hae’s murder are inconsistent. On February 1999, Hae Min Lee’s body was found. Her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed, was convicted of her murder. The prosecution’s main evidence against Adnan was the testimony of Jay Wilds.
