    The story of Romeo and Juliet can be considered the most known tragic love stories known to humanity. Not only do the two protagonists commit suicide, the causes of why the whole story leading up to their deaths is disputed from around the globe. My opinion is that the ages of the characters, particularly Romeo caused this immense tragedy. His age caused him to develop many flaws, his idea of love, his imaturaty, and his impulsivenes. Romeo's idea of love was way too dramatic. From the first…

    To begin with, both stories are based on a tragedy that came between their love. The main characters are the ones who end up dead. I’m talking about the story about Romeo and Juliet which is not alike to Pyramus and Thisbe, but there are some similarities. Let me start off with the differences. In your own perspective, you can tell me if there mostly alike or not alike. Romeo and Juliet didn’t know each other, they didn’t talk about each other before, didn’t communicate, and didn’t…

    Oedipus Quote Analysis “By fate we are driven; yield to fate. No anxious cares can change the threads of its inevitable spindle.” In this particular quote taken from the greek play Oedipus,, I feel that there is more than one type of fate. One is inevitable, in example death. Death is a fate that cannot be avoided. The second, is a type of fate that can be escaped from. For example, a robber is brought to court and sentenced to jail for 30 years. During a prison break, he escapes and sneaks on…

    Lights. One light flashes onto a black stage, one man and one woman stand together uttering infamous words. They are rehearsing lines for a well known Shakespeare play, Romeo and Juliet. The woman playing Juliet cries out to her Romeo, “My only love is my only hate”, (act 1. scene 5. 138). This play is all about the mix of love and hate. However, many argue that one is stronger. Love is stronger than hate because love is more passionate, love is wanted, and love produces peace and happiness.…

    Finding love is often a hard thing for most, it is especially difficult for our characters in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Although Shakespeare shows multiple relationships throughout the play, he forgot to mention that most are violent and toxic. Relationships are never supposed to be perfect, but they are not supposed to be toxic either. Each of our characters either has a lover they cannot have or a parent that doesn’t accept. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare’s play was considered it…

    The Fire and the Rain takes Karnad’s vision about the quest for completeness forward and exhibits him in serene hues as Shakespeare appears in his later work, The Tempest where a Miranda’s innocence is protected by Prospero throughout the play right from her encounter with Ferdinand. It moves in a circle around a central point of revenge, futility of knowledge and frugalness of human nature. Through this play Karnad tries to focus self-centered prevailing in the contemporary society by…
