Near the start of the novel Henry ignores Rinaldis claim on Catherine and starts to see her. While rather annoyed at this, Rinaldi sees that Catherine prefers Henry over him and accepts their relationship “insert quote”. This light hearted way of letting go is only possible as both men at this point of time were typical male chauvinist’s From early on we learn Catherine knows about the war and has experienced tragedy in it. Catherine, who once thought of war as a romantic idea, is suddenly hit by the reality of what war does to people when she loses her fiancée to an explosion. “I thought saber cut… blew him to bits instead” Henry begins his relationship with Catherine and sees it as a game”I did not love Catherine Barkley nor had any idea of loving her.
This feud brought problems along with it, such as the killing of Tybalt by Romeo. Juliet had said: “What’s in a name?” which explains her ill fate of being a Capulet and Romeo being a Montague. When Romeo tells his servant, “Ay, mine own fortune in my misery.” This sentence tells us he does not care for what Juliet’s name, nor his is. Bad luck plays a major role in the story of two-star-crossed lovers. There is an example of this when Romeo attends the Capulet’s party, and this is where he is first exposed to Juliet and where the misfortune begins.

However; his unexpected reaction to the love attained by his daughter illicits a change in Prospero that seems to soften his hardened heart, and allow him to grant his enemies absolution.

Next to be discussed, will be Prospero’s plot to enact vengeance on those who have bestowed great injustices upon him, and how he exercises his powers to achieve this goal. In conclusion, the transformation of Prospero will be examined, inclusive of his love for his daughter and its impact upon him in the change from all consuming malignity into absolution.
My dad was affected by jealousy in the sense of getting a job and I am personally affected by jealousy every day in my relationship. The first character in the play to show signs of jealousy is Iago. In this passage Iago shows his jealousy of Cassio and his hatred for Othello: One Michael Cassio, a Florentine,/ A fellow almost damn’d in a fair wife;/ That never set a squadron in the field,/ nor the division of a battle knows/ More than a spinster; unless the bookish theoric,…/ And I, of whom his eyes had seen proof/ At Rhodes, at Cyprus… / He, in good time, must his lieutenant be(I.i.20-31). Iago is clearly jealous that Othello chose Cassio over him, but is not that the nature of the majority of people when other people get what they want? I believe the answer is yes, and I will explain with examples later on.
The theme of jealousy is explored throughout a view from the bridge in many different ways. In Act one when Catherine meets Rodolfo and Marco , Eddie is instantly jealous that Rodolfo is going to steal his niece away from him. Eddie said that Rodolfo gives him the ‘heeby-jeebies’ which shows us that he was uncomfortable with his presence and Beatrice replies saying ‘you’re just jealous’ which portrays the fact that she has recognised how Eddie doesn’t want Catherine to be taken away by another man. His jealousy of Rodolfo stealing Catherine away from him later continues when Rodolfo and Catherine have been out to the pictures which Eddie wasn’t very happy about and he says to Catherine ‘I don’t see you no more’ which shows us that he misses her. Eddie is later gutted when Catherine tells him that he likes Rodolfo and ‘his smile goes’ as she loves another man who isn’t Eddie.
Pia Brinkschulte February 20, 2012 ELA 30S Mr. Grynol Othello In Shakespeare’s Othello, the main antagonists Iago, starts off from being simply jealous, to turning revengeful and obsessive, making perversive decisions for his need of power and control. Critic A.C. Bradley suggests that this longing to satisfy power is Iago’s main motivation and driving force for his acts and behaviour throughout the play. The chief reason for Iago’s vindictiveness is that Othello chose Cassio over Iago to make him his Lieutenant. Iago feels rejected and despised, he is very bitter towards Othello who downgraded his service and experience in favour of the arithmetic skills that Cassio has. Because Iago’s career path is blocked by a mere lack of paper qualification he first begins to start developing feelings of revenge on Cassio who stole his job.
Iago is jealous of both Othello and Cassio because of the same issue. He is jealous of Othello because Othello gave Cassio a promotion as his military lieutenant when Iago feels that he should have deserved it. Iago is also jealous of Othello because he heard rumours about Othello sleeping with his wife, Emilia. “I hate the Moor, and it is thought abroad that twixt my sheets has done my office,” Act 1. Sc.
Mr. Martin, however, is aware of the trust his boss has on him and knows that no one would believe her and in return his boss would think she needs psychological help and fire her. Even though Mr. Martin’s mischievous scheme is a success; it is not a moral action to use one’s good reputation to hurt an individual. II. Mr. Martin is constantly irritated by Mrs. Barrows and in return he wishes to get rid of her annoyance. A.
The scene moves and Prospero decides to tell Miranda her life story, he questions her about what she can remember. He then tells her that he was once the Duke of Milan, “Thy father was the Duke of Milan – A prince of power.” Here, it seems to me that he is showing off a bit and is maybe thinking back on it and wanting to remember what a good feeling it was. We now feel really sorry for Prospero because he tells the story of being over thrown by his own brother and the King of Naples. “O’er – prized all popular rates, in my false brother.” This is a very strong line which emphasises the angry state of mind he is in when talking about it. We get the impression that Prospero is still very bitter and angry about the situation.
He acts as if he is above the other men, firing demands and making fun of them, and is very much in control of his wife Stella. When she comes home, Stanley ‘gives a loud whack of his hand on her thigh’. This action shows Stanley’s dominance over her, shows his control and his lack respect for his wife in front of company. Arthur Miller also states that a protagonist is somebody that is willing to do anything it takes, right or wrong to ‘gain his rightful position in society’. Stanley is guilty of this throughout the whole play by always trying to outsmart Blanche.
