Plays

not from romeo and Juliet but here is an example:

"Glory be to God for dappled things-

For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;

For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;

Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;

Landscape plotted and pierced-fold, fallow, and plough;

And all trades, their gear and tackle and trim. " (Hopkins's-Pied Beauty)

Danny Glover did indeed star as "Walter" in a made-for-TV version of the play: "A Raisin In The Sun." The play was televised on PBS as I recall. I recorded it on videotape when it aired sometime in the late 1980s. Unfortunately, it was later damaged. In my opinion, Danny Glover's portrayal of Walter was the best by far! Walter was played in the movie by Sidney Portier. As much as I love Sidney's work in many movies like: "In The Heat Of The Night" and "The Defiant Ones," I have to say that Danny's version of Walter was much better. Sean "Diddy" Combs was also featured in the role of Walter a couple of years ago in a special presentation of the play on the ABC network. Felicia Rashad (Bill Cosby's "wife" on his two sitcoms) played Walter's mother. Diddy's portrayal of the frustrated dreamer, Walter, did not capture the essence of the character the way Danny Glover did. So, although Danny gave the best performance of the three actors who played Walter, his "Walter" was probably the least watched because of being shown only on PBS. I wish I could find out where I could buy a DVD of Danny Glover's performance in "Raisin In The Sun." That version of the masterpiece play gets five stars in my book! The other two attempts don't even come close. (Sorry Sidney, Sorry Diddy)

Oedipus is often portrayed as both arrogant and a victim in Greek mythology. His arrogance and pride lead him to unknowingly fulfill the prophecy of killing his father and marrying his mother, but he is also a victim of circumstances beyond his control, such as the gods' will and fate.

During the classical time period, new literary forms developed such as epic poetry (e.g. Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey"), drama (e.g. Greek tragedies and comedies), and philosophical dialogues (e.g. Plato's works). These forms helped shape the foundation of Western literature and continue to influence storytelling today.

In "A Raisin in the Sun," Walter is a round dynamic character because he undergoes significant change and development throughout the play. Initially, he is portrayed as a selfish and materialistic character, but as the story progresses, he learns important lessons about family, identity, and resilience. Walter's transformation from a man solely focused on money to someone who prioritizes his family's well-being showcases his complexity and growth.

George Murchinson in "A Raisin in the Sun" is seen as more of a static character, as he remains relatively unchanged throughout the play. He represents assimilation and conformity to societal norms, contrasting with the dynamic characters in the Younger family who experience growth and transformation. George's lack of development serves to highlight the complexities and struggles faced by the main characters.

The conclusion of "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry sees the Younger family ultimately deciding to move into the new house in a predominantly white neighborhood despite facing challenges and opposition.

She waits for Romeo to make the first move in their relationship, showing her more passive side as she allows events to unfold. However, she takes action on her own when she proposes marriage to Romeo and later when she decides to fake her death to be with him. These moments showcase Juliet's strong will and determination to take matters into her own hands when necessary.

When Romeo says "O, I am fortune's fool," he is expressing his feeling of being controlled by fate or luck. He recognizes that external circumstances have caused him to fall into a situation of misfortune, specifically in the context of the tragic events unfolding in the play "Romeo and Juliet."

Some of the main themes in "School for Scandal" by Richard Brinsley Sheridan include deception and appearances versus reality, gossip and scandal, reputation and social status, and the contrast between moral and immoral behavior. The play satirizes the hypocrisy and superficiality of upper-class society during the 18th century.

In Act 3, the banquet scene from Shakespeare's "Macbeth," Lady Macbeth is distressed by her husband's behavior as he hallucinates and appears guilty in front of their guests.

Overall, Lady Macbeth struggles to control the situation and maintain appearances while dealing with her husband's unraveling mental state.

There is only one "long-standing conflict" in the play and it is between the Capulet family and their hangers-on, and the Montague family and their hangers-on. It is not expressly stated, but we get the impression that this particular feud has been going on since before Capulet and Montague were born. In a sense, if you want to talk about individual conflicts, Capulet and Montague, both older men, have been enemies theoretically since they were children.
