As the play progresses Tourneur explores the avenger’s obsessive passion and madness, before we, the audience, experience a catharsis, and the avenger realises the extent of their wrong doings. The play explores many social and ethical issues such as the role of women. Tourneur does this through his use of rhetoric and satirical language, disguise and stage direction. The opening scene of The Revenger’s Tragedy, sets out why revenge is being taken and by whom. Here, we are introduced to Vindice, whose name means revenge, the wronged protagonist.
Holden is quite peculiar. I say this because of the incident with Sally Hayes where he proclaims his love for her and how they should run off together. The reason this makes him peculiar is because he hates her. "Sally you're a pain in the ass!” is just one of the many crude remarks he’s made to her. Holden Caufield has many bad qualities including one of his favorite pastimes getting drunk.

Romeo and Juliet Essay topic: 1. Are Romeo and Juliet victims of bad luck or bad management? Discuss. In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, bad luck, or fate, plays a major role throughout the story. It causes many terrible events.
It is something that can destroy relationships and also consume the mind. Jealousy can be seen represented in the play a number of times and ways from suspicion to competition, and in every case, it can be very destructive. The jealousy theme in Othello is very interesting because Iago, an evil and destructive character, displays jealousy from the very beginning of the play. Iago has a mind where he feels that he should take revenge on those who he feels have done him wrong. Iago is jealous of both Othello and Cassio because of the same issue.
The illiterate servant of Capulet tells Romeo and Benvolio “My master is the / great rich Capulet, and if you be not of the house of / Montagues, I pray come and crush a cup of wine” (1.2.83-85). It is through an unfortunate chance that of all the literate people in Verona, the servant happens to ask Romeo to read for him, which later leads to the meeting of the two lovers and inevitably to their death. The role of chance in this significant event and throughout the whole play influences the outcome of the play by leading their destiny to death, and therefore removing the play from the tragedy genre. When Romeo sees Juliet dead in the tomb, he says, “Here’s to my love! O true apothecary!

Another example of how tybalt is a trouble maker is in act one scene 5 Tybalt spots Romeo at a Capulet party. Furious at this invasion of Capulet territory, he wants to fight with Romeo right then and there. Also last but least in act 3 scene 1 where Tybalt expresses his troublemaking way the most when he was looking for trouble and wanted to fight romeo and romeo said he didn't wish to fight, Mercutio was taking up for romeo and Tybalt killed him. Benvolio on the other hand portrays himself as a peacemaker in so many ways in this play.He did not like seeing trouble and tried to stop it as much as possible and tried his best to keep the peace. First off His name, Benvolio, means well wishing, which is reflective of his character throughout the play.In the very first scene, Benvolio establishes himself as a peacemaker as he tries to stop the fight between the servants.Also in Act 3 scene 1 Benvolio warns that the Capulets are around looking to start a fight.
In his soliloquy in Act 2 Scene 2 Line 380 he’s especially brutal towards Desdemona in his plans showing no shame what so ever. Othello exhibits a part of humans that is able to be tempted and deceived. While a good man at the start, Shakespeare uses this as a template to bring out the green-eyed monster of jealousy in Othello, as an attempt to highlight that quality in each of us. The dream speech in Act 3 Scene 3 Line 466 is where we see Iago makes this happen. As Iago ends Act 1 with his soliloquy, we become sure that dishonesty is one of his most revered qualities.
