Hamlet: Appearance Versus Reality
Number of words: 1604 | Number of pages: 6.... Polonius speaks to his son with advice that sounds sincere but in
reality it is rehearsed, hollow and without feeling. Polonius gives his
advice only to appear to be the loving caring father. The reality is he
only speaks to appear sincere as a politician, to look good rather then
actually be good:
"And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell; my blessing season this in thee!"
(Act 1, Scene 3 lines 77 - 81)

The Effects Of Advertising On Society
Number of words: 568 | Number of pages: 3.... not only harder to identify but
having more problematic effects. Since society likes to think of the good as a
subjective thing, it would seem to be acceptable for advertisers to qualify
their products as being good. However, Adler shows that some goods (namely

advertised product embodies the good they need, and to achi .....

Macbeth: Macbeth's Personality
Number of words: 1825 | Number of pages: 7.... motive which should energize back of his great deed:
The service and the loyalty I owe,
In doing it, pays itself.
But while he destroys the king's enemies, such motives work but dimly at best and are obscured in his consciousness by more vigorous urges. In the main, as we have said, his nature violently demands rewards: he fights valiantly in order that he may be reported in such terms a "valour's minion" and "Bellona's bridegroom"' he values success because it brings spectacular fame and new titles and royal favor heaped upon him in public. Now so long as these mutable goods are at all commensurate with his inordinate desires .....

Analysis Of The Ending Of "Death Of A Salesman"
Number of words: 1229 | Number of pages: 5.... while having a conversation with a ghost from the past, he
continues to lie to himself by saying that his funeral will be a big event [2],
and that there will be guests from all over his former working territory in
attendance. Yet as was to be expected, this is not what happens, none of the
people he sold to come. Although perhaps this wrong foretelling could be
attributed to senility, rather than his typical self-deception [5]. Maybe he
has forgotten that the "old buyers" have already died of old age. His imagined
dialogue partner tells him that Biff will consider the impending act one of
cowardice. This obviously indicates tha .....

Number of words: 1740 | Number of pages: 7.... along to court Kate, saying he wanted to marry wealthily in Padua. It
appeared, though, as if Petruchio was the kind of man who needed an opposition
in life. The shrewish Kate, who was known to have a sharp tongue, very
adequately filled his need for another powerful character in a relationship
(Kahn 419). When Petruchio began to woo Kate, everybody was rather surprised,
but Signior Baptista agreed when Petruchio wanted marry her on Saturday of the
week he met her. Clearly, he was not opposed because he wanted to hurry and get
Kate married so she would not be in Bianca's way anymore. Petruchio showed up
