both the tragedy of Macbeth and Wuthering the women are very manipulative! At first‚ Lady Macbeth seemed to be kind women towards her husband. Then Lady Macbeth starts to be very manipulative!

Macbeth‚ Banquo‚ and Macduff are all very interesting and crucial to the play‚ Macbeth. They are also complex in a way. The most complex in my opinion is Macbeth.

In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein‚ Victor Frankenstein becomes a modern Prometheus by creating his monster.

Prometheus and Frankenstein are similar in many ways‚ such as their actions and results of creating humans. But they are also very different in personality. Prometheus parallels Victor Frankenstein greatly. Victor’s work by creating man is the same innovative work done by Prometheus in creating human beings. It’s reasonable to say that Victor stole the secrete
