Priestley had witnessed the horrific events of both wars and realized the people in upper classes were still snobby and pessimistic when it came to changing their views in the class system. In creating Sheila's character, Priestley was hoping the audience would take on board his powerful message. Priestley uses a range of interesting techniques in order to present Sheila's change, the most obvious methods he uses is language techniques to convey certain messages. At the beginning of the play, Sheila is presented as a stereotypical middle class young woman - immature and spoilt. Priestley brings this out through Sheila's character through her childish language such as "I'm sorry Daddy and "go on Mummy".
After Macbeth has returned, she reinforces her control over him; accusing him of cowardice and being dishonourable by saying ‘I have given suck, and know/How tender ‘tis to love the babe that milks me. I would… Have… dashed the brains out , had I so sworn as
Another episode from the case study where Diane had intrusive obsessional thoughts of strangling her own children with the dressing gown cords suggests that Diane had maladaptive cognition and she believed that her thoughts would help to cause events (thought-action fusion) e.g. ‘If I wish my children dead, that increases the chances they will die’, and for that reason she had an urge to control those unwanted thoughts and carried out the compulsive rituals. Salkovskis et al (2003) also outlined that neutralising intrusive thoughts usually involves carrying out actions that are intended to reduce any potential threat. This supports the cognitive model as it shows the importance of maladaptive cognition
This helps to convey the horror of what Medea has done because her plan was evil enough, but when she gets her young naive children to unknowingly kill two people, it just makes what Medea has done even more unthinkable. Euripides goes on to convey the horror of what Medea has done in the messengers speech by how he describes how people ‘felt sorry’ for the way she was treated. When the boys arrived, the messenger was ‘so pleased’ and so followed them up to the princess’ room. This conveys horror, because people who care about the princess, clearly has respect for Medea, and they believed she was being sincere. The ways she tricks innocent, well intentioned people into helping her with her murderous plot just increases the horror of the messenger’s speech.
Scarlet Letter Hate Essay Hate is an emotion people have toward someone or something they extremely dislike. Normally, hate causes conflicts and revenges following with destroying: not only destroys others, but also destroys the person himself. In The Scarlett Letter, Hester, an adorable woman, betrays her husband and gets pregnant with an unknown man. Roger Chillingworth, Hester’s real husband, starts a revenge on Dimmesdale when he finds out Dimmesdale is the gigolo of Hester. Roger’s revenge partially leads to the death of Dimmesdale, and at the same time, destroys himself.
He goes on to talk about how much she hates her for being a faker and plans on saying, “…Marla, you big fake, you get out” (Palahniuk 24). This shows the irony that he wants her to leave for being a faker although he is just as much at fault. This can be related to men being angry that women were coming in and competing for jobs even though it was a completely reasonable thing to
This change of emotions is caused by her overpowering love for Romeo. Her intense love for Romeo gives her to forgive him, as she thinks of reasons to justify Romeo’s actions. From “That villain cousin would have killed my husband” and “My husband lives, that Tybalt would have slain, / And Tybalt’s dead, that would have slain my husband.”, she convinces herself that Tybalt would have killed Romeo even if he did not die first, hence showing her loyalties lie with Romeo, not Tybalt or the Capulets any longer. Therefore eventually she reaches a conclusion, “Back foolish tears, back to your native spring”, that “All this is comfort, wherefore I weep then?” that it should be a good thing that Tybalt is dead so that Romeo can live and they can be
Miller takes the “woman scorned” approach to his character of Abigail. Abigail’s assertiveness is observed early when she tells her uncle “the rumour of witchcraft is all about; I think you'd best go down and deny it yourself,". This remark, within the confines of a deeply hierarchical and patriarchal society, shows her to have knowledge of social situations and also that she does not conform to the Puritan society, which has already been evidenced by her affair with John Proctor. She is spiteful which helps to build the classic “woman scorned” role which Miller moulds her into: “Oh, I marvel how such
In the play king Lear, mercy is an insatiable trait which is surrounded by so much hate and malice every time love is given it makes those moments so much more enjoyable. In the begging of the Play King Lear, Cordelia the king’s daughter, is outcast, cheated of her inheritance accused of being a wicked child and one that nature is a shamed of (I,i,215-219). Even though at the beginning of the play king Lear disowns his daughter and she has every right to be unloving to him; when they are reunited King Lear offers to harm himself but Cordelia turns that idea away and forgives him when she asks to take a walk with her father (4,VII,83). People want to see mercy, they want to see those that deserve worse receive compassion and mercy Lear deserved to be turned away but Cordelia showed tenderness to her aging father and
