    Miranda is “Eve of an enchanted Paradise” (Works of W. Shakespeare vol 16), the meaning of innocence, beauty and simplicity. As soon as she meets Ferdinand, she is ready “to place her life, her love, her service beneath his feet” (Works of Shakespeare vol 16), which is opposed to what Fowles’ Miranda is doing. Though both are well educated, beautiful, they have different meanings of what life is about and what they should do in order to achieve fulfilment. Contrary to the cultural background, Fowles’s Miranda is a survivor, a woman who once being captured, learns to love life, while Shakespeare’s Miranda is fragile, always protected by the hardships of life by her loving father. Both Mirandas are imprisoned in a virtual cell, derived their…

    Violet Weston: The devious matriarch, who suffers from cancer of the mouth and she is addicted to painkillers. The first scene after she took the painkillers, she walked down satire. When she dialogued with her husband, I just thought she was very ugly. Later scenes let me so surprised because she just was a sharp-tongued and shrew’s mother and wife. Her husband committed suicide because he could not stand his every day because he has to live with this kind of environment…

    Primarily, the characters in the book are foils for each other. One example is Lucie Manette and Madame Defarge. Lucie is a very gentle and loving woman. Everything that she does shows her kindness and virtue. Her tenderness and adoration for everyone empowers her to unite the family. For instance, when Lucie 's father was in a horrible state of depression, the only cure for his sadness was the sight of Lucie 's face and the touch of her skin. On the other hand, Madame Defarge is a cruel and fanatical revolutionary. She makes notes in her mental "register" of everyone she decides should be executed. She feels that every heir of the Evrémond family, (Charles Darnay 's family) should be exterminated. After Darnay is released from prison, Madame Defarge reports him to the authorities because of the cruel mistreatment of peasants that his uncle commits, even though Charles strongly disagrees with his uncle 's choices. Each of their personalities are so extreme, that they both are foils for each other 's characteristics. Another foil in characters, is Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is an heir to an aristocratic family. He displays exemplary honesty and great virtue. For example, Darnay made a commitment to Lucie 's father that he would reveal to him his true identity (heir to the very cruel Evrémond family). Carton, however, is the extreme opposite. He is an unmannerly, unenthusiastic, drunken attorney. His love for Lucie Manette occupies most of his thoughts. However, he has a revolution within himself and transforms from a simple person with no prospects into an honorable hero. When Sydney Carton dies, his sacrifice is meant to give Lucie, Charles, and even Carton a better…

    The novel becomes surreal when Lewis develops the story in a twisting way. Lewis turned the table on Orual’s association with ugliness when she becomes queen. The once monstrous person is humanized by showing her better qualities as a capable queen. The now entitled queen is given beauty when she is veiled, “her veil hid the face of a pretty woman” (223). Now only judged for her actions, kind and wise, she is considered beautiful by fairytale standards.…

    Thus we see deceit take place through and through, all for the sake of independence, or for being bound by perplexing circumstances. Johnová notes that in the comedies, along with the cross dressing, the lady usually diminishes her original rank on the social strata. It is seen that “Rosalind, the heiress to the throne, becomes a humble owner of a herd of sheep; the rich heiress Portia becomes a junior, though wise, lawyer; the noblewoman Viola becomes a pageboy.” Thus it is a sacrifice made, with an excusable purpose.…

    The play focuses on the exploration of romanticism and the pursuit of love. The story revolves around the upcoming marriage between Duke Theseus and Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons. The Duke is approached by a man named Egeus who is in complaint of his daughter’s choice of men. He wishes that his daughter, Hermia, will marry Demetrius in which she declines. She is in love with Lysander and proclaims “O hell, to choose love by another’s eyes” (Shakespeare 1659). The Duke gives Hermia an ultimatum to either marry Demetrius or accept the penalty. The penalty is “Either to die the death” or “To live a barren sister all your life” (1657). Hermia and Lysander make plans to run off and get married. Hermia’s friend, Helena, comes into the picture. Helena is in love with Demetrius, but he is not in love with her. Helena tells Demetrius the plan of the elopement in an attempt for him to fall in love with her.
