"A 3 page essay that analyzes Hamlet according Aristotelian principles for tragedy. In his book Poetics, the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle outlined his beliefs on drama and what constituted the characteristics of tragedy. Over the ensuing millennia, Aristotle's perspective has influenced countless generations of playwrights and also how the public understands the nature of tragedy. By examining a few of the factors that Aristotle considered crucial to tragedy, it is possible to discern what this great philosopher might have thought about one of history's most noted tragic plays, Shakespeare's Hamlet, which Aristotle would have undoubtedly endorsed as an exemplary tragedy of the first order. Bibliography lists 2 sources."

"A 6 page essay that examines certain aspects of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. The writer argues that on the surface, Viola may seem to be a woman capable of determining her own fate. Stranded in a foreign land, she does not hesitate to assume a male identity in order to acquire employment and relative safety. However, even this intelligent, capable woman is bound by expectations of Elizabethan society. As this suggests, examination of this play shows that each character, in his or her own manner, is bound by the restrictions of society and within these boundaries, which define the context of social life, they have no control over their ultimate fate. Bibliography lists 3 sources. "

"A 4 page essay that discusses the significance of the handkerchief in Shakespeare's Othello. In the history of the theater, the argument can easily be made that there has never been a prop as instrumental to the substance of a play as Desdemona's handkerchief is to the action of Shakespeare's Othello. This prop becomes symbolic to Othello of Desdemona's supposed infidelity, which is precisely what Iago intends. Iago's manipulation of the handkerchief provides Othello's military mind with his supposed ""proof"" of Desdemona's betrayal and precipitates Othello's tragic subsequent actions. Examination of the play demonstrates the pivotal importance of this prop and how the action and the thematic substance hinge on this one image. No other sources cited. "

"A 9 page essay that contrasts and compares Shakespeare's use of figuratively language in Sonnets 23 and 147.

The writer also points out where the poems are different in context, as Sonnet 23 still holds out hope for the poet while Sonnet 147 contemplates the utter ruin of an affair. Bibliography lists 3 sources. "
