In “The Apology” Socrates reveals a profound defense that no one knowingly does evil. Socrates defense does not rely on the right to freely expressing ones ideas‚ but rests entirely on revealing the ignorance of his accusers. This defense begins after Meletus declares that Socrates solely corrupts the youth by himself; everyone else in Athens helps the youth. Socrates creates an analogy and compares Meletus statement to horses and horse-trainers. Socrates exposes that horse-trainers must have many

In the tragedy of Othello‚ Iago draws out the true nature of Othello‚ inch by inch. He tangles the Moor into a web of lies‚ hatred and deceit- which leads to devastating consequences. Reputation is the most outstanding theme in this play as it visibly classifies characters and it defines relationships between each of them. At the conclusion of Act 2‚ Shakespeare uses various methods to present Iago to the audience‚ and reveal his ideas and thoughts‚ the most effective being a soliloquy. "Motiveless

The book Crime and Punishment and its author‚ Fyodor Dostoevsky‚ both came many years before their time. In the book‚ Dostoevsky clearly describes the medical disorders we now know today as schizophrenia‚ bipolar disorder‚ and dissociative identity disorder which is also known as multiple personality disorder.

“noble” who commits the most horrendous of sins‚ murder. * At the heart of these contradictions is a black man trying to fit into a white society‚ and it is these weaknesses and anxieties which result from Othello’s attempts at assimilation‚ which Iago manipulates to his own ends. * Othello’s feelings of insecurity are certainly not unjustified. Everyone around him‚ even the one he loves‚ still see him to be- and refer to him as- a moor. Indeed Desdemona herself admits that she “saw Othello’s

Iago is portrayed as perhaps the most malevolent and conniving character in classical literature. In William Shakespeare ’s tragedy‚ Othello‚ Iago manipulates the people around him through masterful and clever tactics. Through these devices‚ Iago brings forth a nearly apocalyptic end that leads to his torture and the death of many around him. Iago ’s malevolence and his complete mastery of it is clear to even the most cursory observer. But‚ more than this‚ Iago is the king of evil himself‚ Satan

Arren Quigley Architectural Genius in the Renaissance At the beginning of the Renaissance a problem was apparent in Florence. The city was trying to distinguish themselves from Milan‚ their rival‚ and had built a great cathedral‚ Santa Maria del Fiore‚ with this in mind. The problem was that for 122 years the church had been left open to the elements. No roof had been built. In 1418‚ the town fathers of Florence decided that the time had come to build a roof. The roof had to be grand and tall.

In William Shakespeare’s "Othello"‚ the character Iago is‚ at least in my point of view‚ the main and most interesting character. Iago is in virtually every scene in the play‚ and has his hands in almost all doings within the play. Iago is truly one of the greatest villans in literature. Iago is viewed by all in the play‚ with the possible exception of his wife‚ as an honest and trust worthy man‚ which could not be farther from the truth. Iago plays all the characters in the play like puppets. He
