Introduction The Dramatic Crime Fallacy So many delusions and misconceptions have moved stealthily in the minds of society that have crept into the minds of people to our belief, assessment, and thoughts about regular happenings of crime. They must be systematically eradicated from our minds, as we should work calmly to absolve them. Too many statistics are thrown at us regularly that do not cover the real picture of the crime neither paint the true crime story. The media keeps beeping at us,…

Without dramatic action a play cannot exist. Action brings about change, and change is what gives a play meaning. In The Lake, the transferring of the ring that occurs in each scene brings about change in the story by sending a seemingly impossible couple on a lifelong journey.

Dramatic irony occurs when the intention of a character’s words or actions are revealed to the audience or reader, but other characters are unaware of the incident (Oxford Dictionary). This element of drama is frequently noted in the tragedy, Hamlet, because it adds an element of mystery and keeps the audience engaged. One prominent example occurs in Act I Scene V, when the ghost of his father visits young Hamlet. In this scene, the truth of King Hamlet’s murder is disclosed. Prior to this, it…

“I am quite sure she felt no pain” (line 41). This is an example of dramatic irony used in Browning’s poem, because the reader knows that this death would have been painful.
