It is he also because her marries the two and gives Juliet the drug to not only save her from marrying Paris but also because it saves him from explaining why he can not marry Paris and Juliet. Another person who is responsible for their deaths is Old man Capulet. He forces Juliet to marry Paris just so he can save the Family name. Because of his selfishness, his daughter winds up dead. The last people who are responsible for the deaths are the two families.
Having no intentions of being bound to a woman with no money, Alfred bribed two men to testify falsely in court to free him of his responsibility to Claire. With these testimonies, the court ruled against her. Being falsely condemned to a brothel caused her to lose her youth. The loss of her youth and innocence clearly affected her persona, rendering her immoral and ruthless, thirsting for the death of the man who destroyed her. The “Hamburg brothel”
The duo are nothing but con artists whose antics become progressively worse as they travel putting themselves as well Huck and Jim at risk of being caught or even killed. To continue the theme of the belittlement of the family, the duke and dauphine devise a scam to steal everything from the grieving Wilks family. It is shameful how easy it is to swindle the family. As with the epitome of a dysfunctional family, Huck chooses to stop the scam that will leave the Wilks girls with no home, but he still does not betray the Duke and Dauphin and keeps their secrets. Huck thought that he and Jim had escaped the two scammers but they showed up at the raft, and Huck “wilted right down onto the planks, then, and give up” (241).
This is evident in the disastrous wedding scene between Hero and Claudio. When Claudio accuses Hero of being disgrace to her family, he is believed. Hero denies Claudio’s claims that she was flirting with another man at her window, but Don Pedro says he definitely saw her too. Hero was found “guilty” because the men said she was (4.1.30-110). She was not declared innocent until Benedick and the friar discover what happened and told everyone (4.1.186-255 and 4.2.50).
Nurse aids the audience to understand that Medea is a great “manipulator.” After Medea helped Jason secure the Golden Fleece, she helped him escape his “evil” uncle, Pelias. She manipulated Pelias’ daughters into killing only for the love of Jason, and betrayed her own father and brothers to live with Jason. “I betrayed my own family to come here with you… and yet you have betrayed me.” Not only there, Medea’s swaying is distinctive as she appeals to King Creon as a parent to stay for the day, “Oh I am wretched, pity me for my sufferings,” while she devilishly plans to kill the three- Jason, King Creon and his daughter, Glauce. The audience of the play is given a second perspective of Medea by the Tutor, Pedagogue. He presents Medea as
King Creon ruled that if anybody should bury the body in anyway whatsoever, they would be stoned to death. Despite the threats, Antigone could not let her brother go unburied. Her loyalty and devotion to her family caused her to break the law and eventually lead to her death. She was tainted from birth because of the fate of her father and brother, Oedipus. Oedipus was married to his mother and he killed his father, so the fate of his kids was not off to a good start.
This is my third example. After Tom’s cheating on Daisy with Myrtle kills Myrtle, and Daisy’s cowardice to tell anyone that she was actually driving the car kills Gatsby, the two just disappear and Nick is left to plan funerals and take care of everything. Tom and Daisy represent the rich in the social structure, who only care about their own pleasures and safety, and it is them who are careless, irresponsible bullies who are so used to money’s ability to
By practically imprisoning his wife and demeaning her to a piece of property, he denies her simple rights to life and happiness. Meriaduc acts in the same way as the envious husband when he selfishly reunites the two lovers only to distance them again. Marie’s perspective on selfish love is clear from the first lay due to the fact that the two selfish lovers are effectively punished- the husband loses his wife and Meriaduc brings death upon his people- while Guigemar’s selfless love brings about his ultimate happiness when “he captured and destroyed the castle and
He would end up losing all his belongings while destroying his once real and open relationship with the King. Orgon blindly believes Tartuffe until the very end. Orgon’s wife, Elmire, is able to get Tartuffe to reveal his true intentions as he attempts to seduce Elmire into committing adultery. Tartuffe’s character is revealed and it’s nothing short of ugly. Orgon is able to finally see Tartuffe’s lies and hypocrisy, but it is too late as Tartuffe has accused Orgon of wrongdoings to the King.
Her wealthy and greedy family cannot accept that a concierge would inherit any of their property. The police falsely accuse M. Gustave, and he and Zero undertake to clear his name, even as they’re pursued by homicidal thugs and the police, while the whole country is on the brink of war.
