In the different time periods that they ruled, Macbeth and Ozymandias were very commanding kings. Arrogance, ruthlessness, and selfishness are among many of the faults ending their reign as kings. When comparing these great men there are many things that can be cultured about the downfall of excessively ambitious kings. The ostentatious nature of both King Macbeth and Ozymandias vibrantly is shown throughout their reign as king. These men are praised by many which is what led to their conceited temperament.

The use of ‘walk under’ metaphorically represents that they are lower class to Caesar and that he is in control of everything. This gives Brutus and the readers the impression that Caesar is above everyone in the mortal world and that he is god-like and powerful. Again, this is mocking Brutus that he is worthless compared to the mighty Caesar. The main mockery of this quote is ‘dishonourable’, because it contrasts with Brutus’s true personality of honourability. Thus, telling him that he is low in status and dishonourable is quite striking to Brutus due to being a righteous soldier and Shakespeare is possibly using this as a way to get him to listen to what Cassius has to say in order to break these weak titles.
Victim to Villain Power and pride have the power to corrupt and change a once virtuous man.

Shakespeare characterizes Brutus in such a way that it initially hides his real purpose and involvement in the story, though reveals his character traits to be very similar to those of the archetypal hero. Early in the play, Brutus is shown as a constant and stable character, and obviously wouldn’t take on a radical change like that of a tragic hero. However, as the story progresses, Shakespeare creates such a deep and conflicted character to the point that Brutus can garner both pity and respect from the audience. The archetypal hero is usually born into a society that is usually in a state of conflict, one that will cheer “in the triumph over Pompey’s blood”(I.i.52), as the people celebrate Caesar’s defeat of a former ally. Rome was a breeding ground for trouble within its political body, its people, and the military protecting it.
Hamlet’s Sanity Hamlet’s sanity has been a debatable topic since William Shakespeare’s Hamlet was first written. Many scholars have argued that Hamlet is insane after he meets the ghost in Act 1; however, many scholars believe that Hamlet is quite sane throughout the entire play, and he is just putting on an antic disposition. Antic means to play a joke on someone, and disposition means mood; therefore, antic disposition most nearly means to put on a fake mood to fool someone. This is exactly what Hamlet plans on doing after seeing the ghost “As I perchance hereafter shall think meet/ To put an antic disposition on” (1. 5.
In most of the plays that were read this term, there is a theme that seems to be prevalent. The theme is honesty will set you free, whereas lies and mistruths will be your downfall.

Could Shakespeare’s dishonest characters represent Shakespeare?
