After the death of Pearl, Ezra who was closest to her, plans a service for her and then a dinner afterwards in her remembrance.

The death of one’s father and a ghostly visitation thereafter are events that would challenge the sanity of anyone. The circumstances of King Hamlet’s death render it especially traumatic. The late King seemed to be an idol to his son; Hamlet looked up to him and aspired to have the same qualities. Hamlet doesn't like King Claudius and sees him as a swindling usurper who has stolen not only the dead King’s throne, but Hamlet’s as well(2.4). Hamlet shows Gertrude that she has lowered her standards by marrying Claudius, When he refers to old Hamlet as, “A combination and a form indeed / Where every god did seem to set his seal” (3.4.55-61).
She recognizes him by his previous name, Benjamin Barker, and offers him a place to live. Meanwhile, Anthony falls in love with Mr. Todd's daughter who is now Judge Turpin's ward. He concocts a plan to steal her away and live happily ever after. Sweeney begins to kill people that come in for a shave and Mrs. Lovett grinds them into her meat pies. Mrs. Lovett falls in love with him and tells him his wife killed herself.
When he states: 'Tis sweet and commendable in your nature, Hamlet, To give these mourning duties to your father. … To do obsequious sorrow. But to persever In obstinate condolement is a course Of impious stubbornness. 'Tis unmanly grief” (1.2.87-94) King Claudius suggests that Hamlet is letting his excessive grief rule his life. Hamlet is not entirely aware of his surroundings as he does not try to seek out his throne from Claudius which he is in control of
The second scene of Hamlet begins with conflict between uncle and nephew. This is coupled with awkwardness between mother and son, “Why seems it so particular to thee? /Seems? Madame. Nay it is.” Claudius speaks to Hamlet with warmth, “Tis sweet and commendable in your nature, Hamlet, /to give these mourning duties to your father.” And yet Hamlet’s responses are icy and abrasive, “a little more than kin and less than kind” Hamlet has no wish to be close with his uncle and sees his relinquishing role as king to be an insult to his father’s memory.
Is this "monster" truly the "wretched devil" (68) Victor believes him to be? Or is he actually a "fallen angel whom [Victor] drove from joy for no misdeed... [and that] misery made a fiend" (69)? The case for the creature being a "hideous monster" (102) is quite strong. He murders young William Frankenstein with his bare hands; afterwards, he frames Justine Moritz for the crime because he "is forever robbed of all that she could give [him, therefore] she shall atone" (103). Victor's best friend, Henry Clerval, is murdered by the creature as well.
And lately, I’ve been feeling a little numb, what is wrong with me? Anyways, that guy I met with Doreen, is a real hot one. But of course Doreen had to have him, and I left his apartment before things got too, “complicated”. At the Ladies day banquet, I enjoyed all the rich food. I sucks that I missed the fur show, but Jay Cee needed me.
This quote shows that the Ghost brings a bad omen to Simbajon 2 Denmark, but also shows that there is a connection between the morals of a ruler and the well-being of the state of Denmark as a whole. It also foreshadows the state that Denmark will turn into because of the crime that Claudius has committed. In scene 3, Laertes has a talk with Ophelia before he leaves for France, he says, “The canker galls the
Soon after, the young prince is visited by a ghost that resembled the appearance of his dead past father. To increase confusion on Hamlet’s situation even more, the ghost gives details about the truth of King Hamlet’s death; the King was murdered by Claudius while asleep. Because of this and other similar factors, like betrayal, Hamlet began to fall down into a sense of insanity. Throughout William Shakespeare’s play The Tragedy of Hamlet: Prince of Denmark, indication of Prince Hamlet’s true madness is seen in his feelings of abandonment and betrayal from the relationships he has with his family and friends, the unstable emotions and thoughts of avenging his father’s “unnatural” murder, and the unbelievable appearance and meeting of the presumably ghost of former king of Denmark Hamlet’s father, King Hamlet. The character of Hamlet has
The irony reaches its peak when Oedipus calls on the prophet Tiresias to help uncover the murder of Laius and seek an cure to the plague; the metaphor of vision is ironic in that the blind Tiresias can see what the seemingly brilliant Oedipus has overlooked, namely the king's crimes of incest and murder. The other major ingredient of the tragic equation, the purging emotion, is worked out by Sophocles. The hubris of Oedipus is demolished when he confides in Jocasta concerning the predictions of the seer Tiresias; she tells him the story of the murder of Laius, and as she speaks Oedipus comes to recognize the scene and circumstances of the regicide as being the same as those encountered on the road to Thebes. The full hypothesis of his doings come to him and he cries out to Jocasta. However, when he faces the shepherd who had found the child Oedipus, and who now reveals that the child was the same infant who was cast out to the wolves by Laius; Laius had feared the fulfillment of a prophecy that he
