St Josephs University Shakespeare Play Essay
Description
Answer each of the prompts in essay-style like: please use citations from the plays if needed
- In Much Ado About Nothing, how do overhearing, gossip, and conversations drive the action of the play?
- Discuss Don John’s actions in Much Ado About Nothing. What is his goal as the main villain, and what (if anything) drives him to act the way he does?
- How do Beatrice and Benedict overtake Hero and Claudio as main characters in the play? Would you agree or disagree that the play becomes more about them than our main protagonists Hero and Claudio?
- What role does the ghost play in Hamlet? Is it a real apparition or a figment of imagination?
- Analyze Claudius as a character. In act 3 he repents for murder, but how does that contradict the rest of the play? Does he seem like someone who is guilty?
- Trace Ophelia’s breakdown through the play. How do the men around her (father, brother, Hamlet) drive her to suicide?
