Result: they're decanted as freemartins—structurally quite normal (except," he had to admit, "that they do have the slightest tendency to grow beards), but sterile. Guaranteed sterile. Which brings us at last," continued Mr. Foster, "out of the realm of mere slavish imitation of nature into the much more interesting world of human invention” (Huxley 65). Here we can…

    Act III Scene 2 is a pivotal turning point in the play Hamlet. During this scene, Hamlet determines whether Claudius murdered his father by judging his reaction to a play. This play within a play can be interpreted in many different ways. First, the director can choose how to showcase the relationship between Hamlet and Ophelia.
