female roles, but the overall message is still the
same, women are not quite as good as men. As I

Shakespeare Plays Understanding Of Human Nature
4,539 words
Although the precise date of many of Shakespeare?
s plays is in doubt, his dramatic career is
generally divided into four periods: (1) the
period up to 1594, (2) the years from 1594 to
1600, (3) the years from 1600 to 1608, and (4) the
period after 1608. Because of the difficulty of
dating Shakespeare? s plays and the lack of
conclusive facts about his writings, these dates
are approximate and can be used only as a

development. In all periods, the plo...

Makes Me Feel Feature Film

Both Butch Hayes and Samuel Levine both committed
the same crimes against a young person, yet the
viewer is positioned to feel differently to both
of them-more sympathetic towards Hayes rather than
Levine. This is because of the manner both their
characters were portrayed, using, among other
things, techniques specific to the genre (feature
film and novel). One of the main factors, which
manipulate how we feel about Butch and Samuel, are
the way they are both characterised. Hayes is
