He leaves Corinth and travels to Thebes, and on the way he unknowingly kills his father during a quarrel. After saving Thebes from the Sphinx, he is given the hand of Queen Jocasta, his mother, for marriage and he becomes the new king of Thebes. One of the many reasons Oedipus is a coward is that he didn’t want to face his parent s again. His thought at the moment when he blinds himself is that if he killed himself he will see his real parents in the underworld, who he had committed those crimes against. Instead of repenting for his sins he escapes them.
The torture, and what Winston does to escape it, breaks his last promise to himself and to Julia, never to betray her. The original intent of threatening Winston with the rats was not necessarily to go through with the act, but to force him into betraying the only person he loved and, therefore, breaking his spirit. "Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing" (Orwell, 276). Hope for the reader is finally destroyed when Winston claims to love Big Brother and betrays the only thing he truly loved,
In 1984, Big Brother advocates a totalitarian society through controlling love and relationships. The Party’s ultimate motif remains to destroy the sense of love and care, in order to do away with family life so that Big Brother can practice ultimate control. Most of the time, “Chastity was as deep ingrained in [the girls] as Party loyalty. By careful early conditioning… the natural feeling had been driven out of them.” (67). As children, the Party brainwashed females so they believed that a way to obtain loyalty towards the Party happened through chastity.
Richard III laughs as he ruses Lady Anne into believing that he killed her husband and father because of her beauty. “Was ever woman in this humor wooed?” Richard when he’s alone, he mocks her because she fell for his hoax. Richard was actually a very smart man and very deceiving at the same time. The beginning of act 1 starts with this heartfelt speech of Richard speaking of how he feels about his brothers and how he will reach the top. Richard is bitter, deformed, not loved, and sickened by peace, so he will set his brothers up for their death and rise up.
Macbeth is a victim of fate in the Shakespearean tragedy he acts out of no free will he is a weak and easy to bend to anyone’s will. He is a victim of fate and succumbs to temptation and manipulation just like any order man. First the witches tempt him by say that all the power in the world could be his if he can find the way. Second Lady Macbeth starts his downfall into darkness and evil by manipulating him to kill the king.

By having sex to rebel against the mind-controlling Youth Movement’s talks about pro-creational sex, Julia goes against the Party because “sexual privation induces hysteria…and could be transformed into war-fever” (822). Sex poses danger to the Party, and because the Party outlaws it, Julia becomes an outsider. Unlike Winston and Julia, Parsons transforms from an outsider who hated Big Brother to an insider after staying in “the place where there is no darkness” (757). The place Parson transforms in refers to the room in the Ministry of Love in which torture alters people’s beliefs. Parson originally holds the belief that evil exists inside the Party, but he changes his beliefs to a pro-Party stance, even going as far as to thanking the Party for saving him.

Tom Parsons appears in the cell. His daughter has told the police that her father is guilty of thoughtcrime. Chapters 11–12: O’Brien admits that he wrote a large part of Goldstein’s book and that the Party only wants power. O’Brien sends Winston to Room 101 where rats, the thing that Winston most fears, are waiting to eat him. Finally, he begs O’Brien to kill Julia rather than himself and so betrays her.
Euripides questions the Greek ideal woman and her characteristics. Euripides wrote against the norm of Ancient Greek writing when writing this play. The theme of justice verses revenge was very prominent in Medea. Medea goes to great lengths to seek revenge on her ex-husband Jason after he left her and her kids to poverty in a foreign country so that he could then get married to the King’s daughter in Corinth. Not only did Jason do that, but his soon to be father-in-law King Creon demands that Medea and her children leave at once or after she persuades him after a day.
