    Goeth's Confusion?

    • 374 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Personally‚ I believe that Goeth was confused. Goeth obviously enjoyed Helen and in an odd way‚ cared about her. Goeth was instructed to believe that the Jews were animals‚ not people. By seeing Helen‚ and how helpful and smart she was‚ Goeth seemingly saw her as a human being. Judging by Goeth’s caring‚ yet abusive relationship with Helen‚ Goeth was confused because he saw Helen as a real person‚ not an animal. Goeth’s confusion of what to believe in causes him to act out in an abusive manner. Throughout

    conquer Troy but never had a reason behind it; Paris kidnapped Helen‚ the wife of Menelaus‚ and that made Agamemnon and Menelaus angry. This finally gave Agamemnon a reason to go after Troy. He wanted his brother to have his wife back and if that meant he was able to attack Troy‚ that’s what he was going to do. He took his anger out on all of Troy instead of Paris specifically. Paris was a contributor to the start of the war because he stole Helen away from Menelaus and took her to Troy. Both of these men

    motive to pursue love‚ Menelaus and Paris fought for Helen of Troy’s affection and love‚ who was the girl they both wished to wed. This started the commencement of the war which lasted for ten years. I believe Menelaus was a hero throughout the Trojan War because he fought for his love (The Macmillan Book 148-9). Aphrodite made a deal with Paris that if she won the apple for a beauty contest‚ she would give him Helen of Troy (Trojan War). Helen was already married to Menelaus‚ but Aphrodite’s ignorance

    rights to express themselves freely.

    the Iliad even begins‚ honor has affected the world greatly. The Trojan War commenced when Paris went into Sparta and stole Menelaus’ honor in the form of his wife‚ Helen. Whether Helen left in her own free will or not is not important to Menelaus. In his eyes‚ Paris tarnished his honor and deserves to die. Paris departed with Helen for Troy‚ while Menelaus plotted his revenge for the next decade. This simple act of infidelity that takes away the dignity of only one individual leads to a ten year

    the central themes of the play. Marlowe’s use of language conveys that Faustus has accepted his fate‚ and you hear the relief in his voice that his life will finally be over once he has seen Helen and “may extinguish clean‚ those thoughts that do dissuade me from my vow”. Once Mephistopheles has brought Helen to him‚ his pleasure is clear and he is satisfied that he will always remember her kiss “here will I dwell‚ for heaven be in these lips”. He is drifting away picturing himself as Paris‚ successful

    history. Helen of Troy‚ one of the main causes that made Troy to be burned‚ and Jorg Faustus who seemed to have been more quack than satanist‚ was considered a sorceror by Luther (NAEL). One may say that those characters are part of The Tragedy of Doctor Faustus because of what their beliefs‚ wishes and actions were. If one considers that‚ one would affirm that Helen is the way to get glory and Faustus is the person who fights for that power and greatness‚ but for a high price. Helen of Troy has
