Villain

Every villain that exists is a hero in their own mind. They also all have a background of why they became who they are now. A famous villain is Maleficent from sleeping beauty. Another evil lady is Cruella De Vil from one hundred and one Dalmatians. A third Disney villain is Ursula from the little mermaid. These three Disney villains have their own story of who they are and I am sure they are proud too. A famous Disney villain I know is Maleficent. After she was not invited to a party she…

how accurate is this description of Gothic villains in the texts studied? The quote ‘mad, bad and dangerous to know’ was originally attributed to Lady Caroline Lamb in description of Lord Byron. The Romantic poet was infamous for his behaviour: excesses including huge debts, numerous affairs and aristocratic living. In the Gothic context, however, the concepts of ‘madness’, ‘evil’ and ‘danger’ take differing, more threatening forms. The role of the ‘villains’ in ‘Frankenstein’, ‘Dr Faustus’ and…

Moreover, unlike Undine, whose character seems to continually diminish, Moffat's character seems to blossom before our eyes. While Undine becomes ever-increasingly the villain, Moffat emerges the hero. All we really know of Moffat at the opening of the story is that he is "greedy," lacking money, family and social status and that he used Undine and may be a threat to her and her family. However, as the story progresses…

play Julius Caesar. There especially is much controversy over whether one of his main characters, Brutus, is a villain or a hero. Brutus does many good things for Rome, but he also has bad aspects to his character which add to the plot. However in my opinion, for the reasons and examples I found, I believe Brutus is a villain instead of a hero. Even though I believe Brutus is a villain in the story, I don’t believe he is a bad person. Brutus may have done bad things and was senseless in some…

Is Macbeth a victim or a villain? Who or what is to blame for his downfall? ‘Macbeth’, William Shakespeare’s 1606 play, follows the violent doings of Macbeth, an exceptionally ambitious 11th century Scottish Thane in pursuit of the throne, and his resulting degression into a tyrannical and violent dictator. Though Macbeth is initially depicted as a heroic and law-abiding figure, his flaws - ambitious, impressionable and with a tendency to violence - make him weak to the manipulation of the…

In my opinion, Voldemort is the best villain I know. Voldemort is a very unique villain, his whole existence is purely tied to Harry Potter. Back when this all started, Voldemort’s big move for power relied on murdering Harry Potter, who just sat there innocently in his diapers as a man zapped him point blank with an Avada Kedavra curse. Lots of bad guys are simply motivated by taking over the world. The really special ones have a penchant for ethnic cleansing along the way. While both of these…

Large, Ugly, and Frightening are not only words to illustrate a monster or a villain, but how they portray their actions makes them who they are. Every monster or villain has a choice to choose good or evil. Usually when monsters choose evil or go down the path of destruction, they end up dead or on the losing side. Everyone faces a monster physically or emotionally. A character can have an inner-beast of not having credence in them or facing head on as a task that gets them to victory. In…
