    for the good of humanity or just the good of one's loved ones every hero has a cause. Sherlock Holmes seems like an obvious hero but he doesn't really care about saving or protecting people. It seems the only thing Sherlock cares about is working and solving the cases because it is fun for him to have a challenge. But Sherlock does seem to have an internal struggle whether to fight for good or to prove his intelligence according to the author of (sherlock character confessions by Raven Simmons). “Sherlock seems to be divided by the urge to defeat Moriarty because he is a criminal and it would simply be the right thing to do r to defeat Moriarty simply to win a challenge made against his intelligence; basically, as a battle of wits”. So it seems that there may be some kind of good conscience inside of this man. Even though he is a kind of strange man that keeps to himself he does try to help others though it may seem he has selfish reasons for helping. I believe that he is a true hero when you hear someone talk about the great Sherlock Holmes you think of a mysterious british man with quick wits that fights crime for good. He is an iconic hero in british literature that everyone…

    Surrounded by different scenery, each actor used distinct yet sometimes similar gestures as well as facial expressions and props to display their own interpretation on the soliloquy To be or not to be, crafted by William Shakespeare. Each actor, through his performance, was able to further reveal insight into the meaning behind each phrase and words placed in the text. While some actors played Hamlet as a suicidal man, others made him seem optimistic. Some even had the combination of the two. Although every actor was different in demeanor and voice, they all embodied Hamlets overarching confusion and outrage, staying true to the core of the text.…
