her life was anything but normal. Bishop uses
poetry to create order, beauty, and stability to
an otherwise bland world; this can be seen by
analyzing her poems. Sometimes it would take
Bishop a few years...

Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Antic Disposition

Hamlet only feigns madness because it allows him
to do and say things that he otherwise could not
say without severe repercussions and suspicion
being held against him. It also prevents people
from blaming him for his ridiculous antics, and
from taking him seriously. We first see Hamlet's
initial plan of faking insanity falling into place
when he is talking to Horatio and Marcellus,
telling them not to comment to anyone about his
"antic disposition (Shakespeare, 75). " Hamlet's
supposed madness ...

appreciate anybody else but themselves. It is also
believed that the only children often fail in
building their own families because they have
absolutely no experience of sharing and
