Art Spiegelman's graphic narrative Maus gives the reader an inside glimpse into his father's memoirs. Vladek was not an easy man to live with, nor was a cold tyrant neither. Instead, he was domineering and a difficult father. Artie feels alienated from his father, and has no relationship with him outside their recounting of the Holocaust narrative.

Hamlet's Frustration In order to understand Hamlet, we must understand his frustration. This frustration is most clear in his famous monologue, famously beginning with the line "Oh what a rogue and peasant slave am I." This self-condemnation is contrasted by his admiration for the actor of the previous scene, who "in a fiction" is able to "force his soul to his own conceit." The word "soul" is an example of metonymy, as the soul represents the actor's "visage," "tears," "distraction," and

Not many are familiar with the name Aaron Burr and maybe that is due to the fact that he is not all villain. From the hit Broadway show “Hamilton”, Leslie Odom Jr., who plays Aaron Burr on stage, opened
Shakespeare’s, Richard III depicts the unscrupulous rise to power and ensuing short reign of Richard III of England. Through all of his plays, Richard is becoming known as the perfect villain for the way he raises to power. We know that Richard is obviously a villain by the way he single-handedly orchestrates all of the chaos and violence throughout the course of the play.

Wrought with double irony and an overall sense of mock-pastoral, English playwright John Gay’s The Beggar’s Opera (1728) has its forefront of irony vividly expressed between the dynamic of the central characters Macheath and Peachum. Even the names of the characters comically resemble their occupations within the play, Peachum’s being a play on the word “peach” which means to bring one to trial, while Macheath’s meaning “son of heath” and being a play on the heaths of London, which were prime places

My three main points are what make a villain a good villain, what factors are involved and what makes the Villain memorable.

"The more successful the villain, the more successful the picture," Alfred Hitchcock, the 'Master of Suspense,' once quoted. A great villain is arguably what will make or break a movie, television show, or piece of literature.

Jack Spicer writes affectionately about “ the Kid”. Maybe his hero, definitely not a role model by any moral standards, but just the same he meant something to a good number of people. Billy was almost of Robin Hood status, although I doubt any money taken from anywhere by his hand had ever ended up in the house of the poor. Rather the kid became an icon of the rebel in every man and the heart of every child. Spicer writes about the kid as I myself might write of a beloved fallen ancestor or fellow

This in fact would be the root of my problems in trying to grasp the character of Billy Pilgrim and the life, in which he leads throughout the
