The prospect of dying is more appealing than dredging up the memories she shares with her…

Auden, Williams, and Sexton use the myth of Icarus as comparisons in their poems, but for different reasons. The authors, Auden, Williams, and Sexton, allude to this myth in their poems to either show Icarus’ story in its insignificance or in its triumph. In W.H. Auden’s “Musee des Beaux Arts,” he uses the myth of…

They need to act as if everything is normal so that nobody suspects them. Macbeth thinks that it will be difficult to cover it up. He recognises his ‘false heart’ which implies that he isn’t totally happy with Lady Macbeth’s plan. After Lady Macbeth’s persuasion it is obvious that Macbeth is feeling very uneasy and nervous. (When he sees the dagger: ‘Is this a dagger which I see before me…’) When Banquo asks: ‘Who’s there?’ Macbeth replies: ‘A friend.’ That is a good example of dramatic…
