The Pawn

In a desperate grasp at power, Polonius exploits his own daughter in an attempt to get the king to favor and trust him; therefore, Ophelia becomes a pawn in the elaborate battle of wits between Hamlet and Claudius and Polonius. When Hamlet enters the room proclaiming, “To be, or not to be: that is the question,” (Ham. 3.1.57) Ophelia is already there, yet there is no greeting in her direction when the…

said back to Macbeth “haven’t you always just been a pawn from a game of chess” Macbeth then realized what was going on everything since he cross forward and back into that world of that red hooded girl. He suddenly realized that he will be the only who knows why everyone is like this and how all this happened. Though none of that matters now. He should probably listen to what the witches have to say. “The man who realizes he is just a pawn in the beginning of this with be soon upgraded to the…

strategies like this requires much practice and is exceptionally advanced. I personally strive to discover and attain these strategical and tactical superior positions in my own chess games, however they are not only difficult to discover, they’re also risky for if you do not calculate a certain possibility or logical move from your opponent when you’re thinking 3 to 4 moves ahead, you make a brash sacrifice and end up in a losing position both materially, and strategically. Keeping this in mind…

if you are meaningless. Many of these people in Avon’s empire are viewed the same way, as D’Angelo said it, “The pawns, man, in the game they get capped quick. They be out of the game early.” The way D’Angelo put it, the pawns are the ones that come into the came quickly and can get forced out or leave the game even quicker. The young dealers, especially Bodie is convinced that he, a pawn can make it the end and become top dog or the king in the game. In this scene it comes through to the…

board: “The first row is made up of... people who rule the country. The second row is made up of pawns. The pawns are the least important...They are meant to be used for your own advantage.” In other words, Kahlil exemplifies the unimportance of the pawns as a strategic piece on the chessboard, stereotyping their capability depending on where the piece lies. Contrary to popular belief, many may believe pawns are essential pieces because of their ability and potential to overcome the force of…

societal constructs. Janie has to negotiate how to carry herself in response to others, which leads to Janie breaking the mold women are expected to fit into.

A Pawn of Life and Love Relationships are like a game of chess, sacrificing, but requires thinking before acting. Chess teaches how certain actions can lead to complete annihilation or victory. The altruistic pawns of action are like the compromises of the game of life. These compromises include: learning to give and take, how to share, and how to negotiate; these are only a few of the life lessons that parents strive to teach their children. However, some parent-child relationships…

king is under check and it can not make a legal move to get out, this is called checkmate. Once a king is in checkmate the game ends. Continuing, if a pawn makes it to the end of the board it “promotes”. Promotion is required, and when it happens the pawn can either turn into a queen, a rook, a bishop, or a knight. The new piece replaces the pawn on the same square. Also every piece is placed on a specific spot on the board at the beginning of the game. Since the chessboard is an eight by eight…

is Avon and as D’Angelo says “The king stays the king”. No matter how much you do, no matter how many of the Kings enemies you kill or how much money you make for the organization you will never be king. The king does not do any work, he uses his pawns or soldiers and even the queen to do his dirty work. As you see in The Wire, Avon rarely ventures into the pit, gets involved in fights or deals drugs personally. One of the other positions in chess that is highly rated is the queen. The queen in…
