The Story That Started It All William Shakespeare based his play "Othello" on a story called "Hecatommithi" by Giraldi Cinthio’s. This was a collection of a hundred tales that was printed in Italy in the sixteenth century. It is thought that Shakespeare read the original Italian version and got inspired to write his own. In writing his own version‚ Shakespeare kept most of the original ideas but also added some of his own twists. Giraldi‚ Giovanni Battista ‚ 1504-73‚ Italian author‚ known also

The Time During Oliver Pure terror was the first thing I felt when I heard the news. How were we going to fulfill our huge production without it? Oliver was perfect- the lighting‚ sound‚ music cues‚ and the cast. The mixed cast was very large and full of orphans who looked as if they had lost all coordination. But‚ the actor who played Bill Sykes had forgotten one element of his costume that was so crucial to the show and the meaning of it. His hat. Sure‚ he forgot a hat. Big deal‚ right

Chapter 1 The book The Time Machine by H.G. Wells consists of a story within a story. The first two chapters make up the outer story‚ the frame‚ that leads the reader into the main story. This main story is the tale of the TT‚ which he recounts to his audience. In my opinion this special technique is very important‚ because Wells shows the reader that the story takes place in Victorian England‚ in a world of gas lamps‚ ciagars and men who really have the time to talk about topics like the fourth

‘Although Josefina is central to the plot‚ she is never presented as a convincing character’. Do you agree?

Each and every character within the film differs from one another. Through the beliefs and values of the Shuar‚ to the way things get done with the European. Josefina‚ the films only female character‚ is a beautiful resident of the

Marquez explores both the natural and the supernatural in his short story‚ "A very Old Man with Enormous Wings." Although the plot revolves around the character of a winged man who has fallen to earth‚ the story’s main focus is not on the angel‚ but on the folks surrounding him. As the story goes on‚ the author portrays an essentially negative view of human nature. According to Marquez‚ people not not only lack logic‚ they show ignorance. The people of the Columbian town mistreat the
