She can be inconsiderate, but caring at the same time. On the other hand, the friar acts like a father to Romeo. Although he can be blunt when he talks, he is a preacher and Romeo’s love counselor. In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, there are many similarities and differences; obviously, I will be comparing the nurse and friar’s parent-like figures, personalities, and how they talk. The nurse treats Juliet in
However Lennie also has an antagonistic side to his character, mainly because of his actions throughout the novel. The fact that we have a character stating this from rumours, means that the writer is in-fact giving a biased opinion, and expressing his opinion through Candy. “… An’I seen her give Carlson the eye.” Curley’s wife has been appalled with Curley so much; her discontent is
Miss Lacy, Clayton Forrest’s secretary was appalled at the thought of a white girl staying with black women, referring to August as her. “‘I’m just saying it’s not natural, that you shouldn’t be ...well, lowering yourself’” (p. 198).

In the essay I am going to be talking about two disturbed characters in a play and a poem. The first characters that I will be talking about is lady Macbeth which she was in a play that was written by William Shakespeare in Elizabethan times, the three themes for the play is supernatural, the conflicts of order and ambition which it is still relevant today but in this play lady Macbeth was three of them, she did not act like what the Elizabethan woman acted she acted differently, in that time the woman was forced to obey their husbands, to agree with what their husband say to them, not to insult their husband because if they don’t do all them they will be whipped, but lady Macbeth did not do all this things she twisted it round just for power, persuading her husband to do her dirty work, so William Shakespeare is trying to make it relevant to audience today because he want them to see the plot of the blindly ambitious husband with a strong willed wife who must try to cope with guilt by their murder of an innocent king in order to further power. The second character that I will be talking about is the Duke in My Last Duchess, a poem written by Browning in the 1842, it was set in the Victorian times, this poem allows us to focus just on the speaker The duke, he is talking about his latest wife that he have had recently his last duchess, in this poem it really shows us how man acted toward their wife in the Victorian times. In this essay I will be comparing the two disturbed characters and bring out what both of them want and how much they want, also show the reader why the writers made them so disturbed. In the beginning of the Macbeth, Lady Macbeth seemed to be decent, but it was the
In the novel Fight Club, Marla Singer’s character role is shown through a relationship triangle between the narrator, Tyler Durden, and Marla Singer. Through this relationship triangle, the three friends all inevitably discover what it means to hit “rock bottom.” In a way, the character of Marla Singer acts as a role of desire and destruction to the narrator and Tyler Durden. At the beginning of the novel, the narrator does not like Marla because she reminds him too much of himself by her emotional needs and tendencies. In chapter 2, we learn that the narrator uses support groups in which patients of sever diseases and conditions attend for support. He attends these support meetings so that he can release emotional energy and feel better about himself.
This also foreshadows the death that is to come, shown further by Lennie's fascination with her; he 'watched her, fascinated'. Alternatively, this could symbolise her anger and frustration at the ranch's view of her, that is, as a 'tramp'. This could also be a comment from Steinbeck; that men are dominant in deciding the status of someone, and that women have little power. Therefore, colour imagery is used to show the danger surrounding Curley's Wife and to foreshadow her involvement later in the novel. The fact that Curley's Wife, on a ranch, is 'heavily made up' indicates the fact that she is lonely, as on a ranch there is need to wear such heavy make up, and the only purpose it serves it to attract attention from the other men.
Nonetheless, the sheriff’s wife and the neighbor’s wife who come to the house to take in some stuffs for Mrs. Wright have found out the motive and the real murderer. The play "As the Crow Flies" by David Henry Hwang is like a tragedy within a comedy. The playwright uses humor throughout the play to hide the serious theme of the story.

This particular poem was very confusing as she often changes how she feels about the issue at hand; she goes from worshipping her father like a god of some kind to hating him and wishing revenge on him and then to saying how he is ideal model figure. She finds this figure in her husband and also labels him a vampire. It was this imagery that shows how Plath was always under the restrictive constrictions of the male figures in her life. The first stanza of the poem shows this confinement through the image of how she was trapped in her father’s shoe in which she lived like a foot and because of this she was unable to complete normal tasks that normal people take for granted such as sneeze of breathe. It was this restriction that was always evident when there was a male figure within her life.
