The Screwtape Letters is a novel written by C. S. Lewis that is so named because it is a collection of fictitious letters written by a powerful demon to his nephew.

The Chorus: an unspecified number of Canterbury's women, is a corporate character serving the same purposes as does the chorus in Greek drama: to develop and, more importantly, to comment on the action of the play. The women's initial speech fairly defines their dramaturgic role: "We are forced to bear witness." And yet this chorus, like its ancient Greek predecessors, is no mere, dispassionate, objective "eyewitness"; rather, it is a witness bearing testimony to truth-almost as in a legal proceeding, but that analogy fails to capture the nature of the testimony the chorus offers. In commenting upon the action of Thomas Becket's murder, the women are voicing insights into, reflections on, and conclusions about time, destiny, and life and death. In the end, they emerge as representatives of ordinary people-such as those who make up the audience of the play, or its readership-people who, mired in and having settled for an existence of "living and partly living," are unable to greet transcendence when it is offered to them. As they state in the play's final moments, not everyone can bear the "loneliness. surrender. deprivation" necessary to become a saint. Not all can be saints-but all can pray for their intercession.

My mother,Mary Charshafian, born Maryam Adalian 1900 in Yetem, California spoke often of her friend Lucy Saroyan, her brother William Saroyan wrote stories that many people have read, even non Armenians.

I have pictures of myrig and a friend I believe to be Lucy.

He has a serious manner.

They don't really. The Macbeths are looking the innocent flower while being the serpent under it. There is the appearance that the Macbeths are good people and deserve to be king and queen, but in reality they have committed horrible crimes. (Macbeth commits crimes without involving his wife in both acts.) So, nothing is what it seems: fair is foul and foul is fair. But there is no confusion in the audience's mind about what is good and what is evil--we know even if the people in the play do not.

(Points a long arm and finger) Stay! I stay you! I render you powerless and motionless! (Joe picks up the phone and dials) All right, I can't do it, but put down the phone, please I'll tell you everything. (Joe looks at him; puts down the receiver) I'll tell you what I know, take it or leave it... God and Satan were sitting around having one of those boring philosophical debates--this was a week ago Tuesday. And Satan was sitting there in this pink suit--gorgeous tan, little mole on his cheek... And Satan says there is not one man on the face of the earth, in the entire universe--regardless of race, religion, Polish, whatever--who would not renounce God once the Devil put enough heat on. Can you believe it? Two grown deities talking like this? To which God said--this is a quote, they got it on tape--one man would never renounce. And that man is.. (Makes a bugle sound) Ta tum ta tum ta tum ta tum ta taaa... JOE BENJAMIN! Thrills right? ...So they make a bet--I'm only telling you what I heard--and the bet is, the Devil will make your life so miserable, you'll renounce God! So-o-o, that's it. Hell of a story isn't it?

You're lucky, I'm actually doing this monologue in my theater class right now.

Giles Corey accuses Thomas Putnam of being an opportunist of the worst kind, attempting to benefit from the witch-trials by putting himself in a position to purchase the land of those individuals condemned to hang. "Giles Corey accuses him of taking advantage of accused landowners' plights. Knowing that the convicted will be forced to sell their land for much less than it is worth, Putnam is all too eager to attain these properties at cut-rate prices." "He has many grievances, and his vengeful, angry behavior seems to stem from his desire for power and possessions." There are already disputes over land rights swirling around the town, so Corey just points out how Putnam is ready to add to his holdings.

in total there are about 24 but each school has to pick a minimum of 5 this is entirely the decision of the respective teachers and faculty most likely the literature department in that school.my school does the lion and the jewel,the burdens,the african child,lowino and ocol these change on an annual basis though the national examination body(UNEB)makes one book compulsory for about 5 years afterwhich anotherone picked currently its rhymes and rythms and we are in year 3/5

John Proctor, Elizabeth Proctor, Rebecca Nurse, and Giles Corey are the main nonconformists in The Crucible. Reverend John Hale, Ezekiel Cheever, Reverend Samuel Parris, Betty Parris, Mary Warren, Thomas Putnam, and Ann Putnam are the conformists.

One is sheepish and hesitant, whereas the other is assertive

It means that when you love someone that it doesnt matter what they look like but what is on the inside. And since Cupid is painted blind he doesnt love with his eyes but with his mind (he loves whats on the inside) =]

What was Shylock's nature?

It's not a quote from Kandinsky; it's just a description of the Kandinsky painting, which sets up the main theme of the play (chaos and order, two sides, two faces, of the same thing). And it's actually Paul who says it (Will Smith's character), not Flan (Sutherland's character), although Flan/Sutherland may have repeated it during the course of the play/movie.

Anyway, the line is "The Kandinsky! -- that's a double. It's painted on either side," during the scene in which Paul bursts into their apartment, all bloodied up. And then again at the very end of the play: "The Kandinsky's painted on two sides."

Sutherland's character does claim to quote Kandinsky during a cocktail party and I've been looking for the exact verbiage myself. It goes something like this: "It is clear that the choice of object that is one of the elements in the harmony of form must be decided only by a corresponding vibration in the human soul."

Every production is different: if you said false beard (for Feste), a ring (for Olivia to give to Viola), money, a money bag, luggage (for Sir Andrew to pack), swords (for Viola, Sir Toby, Sir Andrew, Sebastian and Antonio), a letter (for Malvolio) and a Shakespearean guitar (for Feste to play while singing), that might work.

The full quotation is:

Your honour's players, hearing your amendment,

Are come to play a pleasant comedy;

For so your doctors hold it very meet,

Seeing too much sadness hath congeal'd your blood,

And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.

Therefore they thought it good you hear a play

And frame your mind to mirth and merriment,

Which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.

In other words, watching a funny play is good for your health. To understand the medical theory going on here, you have to know something about the four humours, especially the black bile and blood. These two substances were supposed to regulate a person's temperament and behaviour: lots of blood made a person sanguine, happy, optimistic, but lots of black bile made a person melancholic, depressed and unhappy. The diagnosis is that "too much sadness hath congeal'd [Sly's] blood" which stops the blood from making him happy. His melancholy is taking over.

Psychiatry was easier then.

The messenger here employs a metaphor: he says melancholy is a nurse to frenzy. In the same way as a nurse helps a person grow strong and healthy, melancholy encourages and strengthens frenzied, desperate and erratic behaviour.
