    King Martin's Chivalry In Oedipus The King

    In a world where the approaching winter will last for 40 years, kings, queens, knights and vagabonds struggle for control of the Iron Throne. Some fight with sword and axe, some with magic and poison. To the north, however, beyond the Wall, the Others are preparing their army of the dead to march southward as the warmth of summer is drained from the land. This book stands out by way of its superbly developed characters and adroit prose. Chivalry is a concept integral to the society of the Seven Kingdoms, with tourneys and knights in shining armor galore. These trappings, however, merely give cover to dangerous men and women who will stop at nothing to accomplish their goals. When Lord Neddard Stark of Winterfell, an honest man and perhaps the only good-hearted creature in the noble caucus, comes south to act as the King’s chief…

    The Deposition Of Richard III Analysis

    During the War of the Roses, England was constantly in a state of war between the House of Lancaster and the House of York, who were massive rivals that competed for the throne of England (History 320 Lecture, 10/30/2015). In Polydore Vergil’s account of Henry VII, Richard III’s personal ambition can be seen. The author first tells of a nightmare Richard has the night before Bosworth Field, which Vergil believes was “no dream but a conscience guilty of heinous offences, a conscience, I say” (Polydore Vergil, Account of Henry VII, 479). Though the source makes no explicit mentions of it, it is widely believed that Richard III murdered his nephews to take the throne. When his brother, Edward IV died, his legitimate son was crowned Edward V, but was shortly taken captive by his uncle and placed into the Tower of London (History 320 Lecture, 10/30/2015). Instead of allowing for a legitimate heir to take the throne as it should have gone, Richard went to immeasurable lengths to ensure he would be king, further escalating the conflict and disrupting English society as a whole. This caused not only great scandal, but Richard III was a terrible king, guilty of many offenses as Vergil states. He created great disruption not only in his court by taking the throne away from his nephew, but also to the lives of his subjects. Vergil makes note of this as well, specifically mentioning the strife of the English people, who had consistently been “torn by rival factions” (Polydore Vergil, Account of Henry VII,…

    How Does Shakespeare Present Cordelia In King Lear

    In Act V, from scene i to scene iii where the herald enters on pages 227 to 243, the overall atmosphere or mood is unexpected. This is clearly evident through the main characters and the events that surpass, that the audience may assume that order and justice would have triumphed over villainy and cruelty. However, that is not the case. Although Cordelia, has just been reunited with Lear, her father, giving the audience a cathartic moment of relief by suggesting that justice shall prevail. Nevertheless, Shakespeare revokes this hope when Edgar encourages Gloucester to disperse, announcing that Cordelia loses the battle against Edmund and Albany.…
