There is a real sense of danger and fear. The poem sets a stormy scene, with the word “wild” repeated at the start to show how wild and violent the storm is, and leaving us in no doubt as the mood of the poem. The sea is high and the gale has a steady “roar” with use of onomatopoeia emphasizing the sounds of the wind blowing brutally. There is a sense of personification with the “undertone muttering” with “incessant” showing that this noise continues all the time. This develops into ‘demoniac laughter’, which links the devil to the storm, making it seem evil and hostile.
‘Immediately we do exile him hence.’ Shakespeare has used the words ‘exile’ to define the banishment as a very bad punishment and the word ‘immediately’ to illustrate that he has done something so bad that he has to leave the country-Verona straight away. Shakespeare ended the scene in a tragedy to make Act 3 Scene 1 exciting and dramatic for the audience because he wants to make the audience want to find out what is going to happen to Romeo. Shakespeare ended the scene with Romeo the main character to leave Verona to leave the audience with tense and shock at the end of Act 3 Scene
Henry IV Part One is a play that explores the dreadful consequences and civil unrest that arose from Henry's usurpation of the legitimate King of England. To what extent do you agree. A major concern of "Henry IV Part One" is the question of rebellion against legitimate authority. The protagonist, Henry IV, has decisively broken with the traditional form of political authority; the common allegiance to a legitimate king. This allegiance derives the King's authority from his inheritance and the common knowledge that this is the way the political order in the country should be determined.
Jean Jacques Rousseau concluded that all people were entitled to participate in their government, as well as possessing liberties to political and legal equality (Brinkley Alan pg 142). These ideas only fed colonist’s growing discontent with their mother country, and proved the unjustness of no taxation without representation. With the aid of Enlightenment thinkers, colonists recognized the lack of stability of the British Parliament as well as the excessive power of the king. Although revolutionary issued propaganda, the pamphlet Common Sense by Thomas Paine summarized the lack of just British leadership, and alerted colonists to the country’s abuse of power. The British crown was no
As he suggests to Hal, he wants to be “like a comet” to be seen on a rare basis to be “wondered at” by his subjects. This illegitimacy effects his reign as it causes instability within the royal court. This is seen from the very beginning of the play as Henry wants to “crusade the holy land” to find a common enemy within the court, to take the focus off him. This instability is on the of the main factors that starts the rebellion. Both Worcester and Northumberland had much power before Henry’s overthrow, but are now put into a position where they have very little.
I would present a man who displays every symptom of heroic stubbornness but who in the end is swayed by advice, makes major concession until his final collapse. He fails to live up to his principles and his great personality, which are nothing but a false persona. I would like to portray Creon as authoritative and prevailing in his first appearance with the chorus. Creon is giving a vital speech, a proclamation to the state involving the defiance of Polynices burial, he says, ‘the state, the fatherland, is everything to us, the ship we all sail in, if she sinks, we all drown.’ I would stand upstage left and slowly pace with a fierce persona, shoulders back, chin high, towards centre stage where I will be most dominant. I would speak articulately and in a low tone, pausing between every comma before taking a longer pause after saying ‘us.’ I would then look up to the skies triumphantly and quickly proclaim, ‘if she sinks,’ then pause, look regally across the audience before saying, ‘we all drown.’ I will not say this morbidly but with a warm, humbling tone to persuade the audience that this is a good thing to do.
In Bless Me Ultima Anaya demonstrates this theme several times. For example, Anaya shows the inevitable loss of innocence when Maria says, “Ay, but life destroys the pureness God gives…” (31). Maria demonstrates the inevitable destruction of the pureness given by god. Maria here shows that she feels that as one grows older and gain knowledge about the rest of the world we start losing the pureness or the innocence given to us by god. Another example of this theme, Antonio feels his loss of innocence through the events in his life when he says, “I had somehow lost my innocence and let sin enter into my soul, and the knowledge of God, the saving grace, was far away” (167).
Firstly, there are the witches, who are first to give Macbeth the idea of kingship. When they are first met, they are gathered in a ‘desolate place’ during a ferocious storm. This alone creates tension, even before the witches speak, as many fear thunder and lightening; when the play was written, thunder was considered to be God showing his anger. When speaking the witches say, in line 12,’Fair is foul, and foul if fair’, later in scene 3 Macbeth describes the day: ‘So foul and fair a day’. This repetition may illustrate a link between Macbeth and the witches: these are words not commonly used together as they are an oxymoron.
