Shakespeare was not just one of the most prolific playwrights of his time, but of all time. An quick Internet search revealed that the general consensus is that he wrote in his lifetime thirty-seven different plays—comedies, tragedies and histories.

The realities he faces are some of the most unimaginable hardships any human being could imagine going through. These difficulties leave their mark on Hamlet as a person, and the consequences of them become his consequences. This essay explores ...

William Shakespeare wrote Hamlet more than four hundred years ago. Yet, it was not the first mention of Danish Prince in the literature. The history knows about the Prince Amleth, a character, preserved by 13th century chronicler Saxo Grammaticus and retold in 16th century. Actually, this means that the tragedy of Hamlet is not new.

Children's literature can have many purposes - they are often used to entertain, to delight, and to spark imagination. Many are also used to provide children with useful lessons for proper behavior and desirable attitudes. However, one additional benefit that children's literature has is its unique method of discussing adult topics and subjects in front of children in a way that does not offend the status quo, or introduces it to them too harshly. At the turn of the twentieth century, three stories in particular were particularly useful in conveying adult messages to their audience - "Uncle Remus," "Rip Van ...

The Opposing Visions of Joel Chandler Harris & Charles W. Chesnutt

These two extracts exemplify two distinct traditions in African American Literature. In fact, since Harris was of white descent, the Uncle Remus stories as a whole represent a white concept of African American culture, suitably diluted and sanitized, it could be argued, for a predominately white readership. It is true that Harris as an illegitimate son of an Irish immigrant from a very poor background and sporting a vivid shock of very red hair might have felt himself slightly ostracized in Southern society; it is also true that he spent much of his time as an apprentice on the Turnwold plantation, during the American ...

The House of Spirits by Isabella Allende

1. Introduction.
The House of Spirits by Isabel Allende is the first novel that she published. The book became highly popular and the style of “magical realism” was used to describe the novel. Rogers (2002) explains that “magical realist writers write the ordinary as miraculous and the miraculous as ordinary. The miraculous, on the other hand, is described with a precision that fits it into the ordinariness of daily life.” That is exactly what this novel does until gradually it cycles through about seventy five years of one family and ends in a place that is more real than magical.

I must say that I really like this play. The play "Uncle Vanya" is an inimitable Chekhovian lyricism, gentle humor, the atmosphere of sadness and hope, a sense of foreboding things to come.

Summary

Judging by the title of the play, the focus is the fate of the author of Uncle Vanya. Overestimating their way of life, he is going through a spiritual crisis. Now Uncle Vanya realizes that his ...

In classic literature, there can be many subtle messages the reader misses. Authors are often notorious for inserting messages into their writing like this. Metaphors and other hidden meanings give the writing more weight and depth. “Araby” and “The Dead” from James Joyces’ Dubiners and Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse are no exception. They appear blatantly clear on the surface, but upon closer examination, they reveal issues of the mundane, the power hungry, and painful growth.

Similarly, he acts sane when he wants to, and is quite logical in his reasoning. Centuries ago Shakespeare wrote of the social issues that existed in his society. Today, the themes in Shakespeare’s works remain common in the society. The deception of his uncle ...
