Moliere/Modern Relevance
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that examines three plays by Moliere. The writer argues that Moliere's genius took the form of comedic plays that present serious social commentary. While Moliere was commenting on his own era, human nature has not changed over the interceding centuries. Therefore, his work still has a great deal to say about the human condition to modern audiences. To substantiate this argument, the writer examines three plays: Don Juan, Tartuffe, and The Learned Ladies. No additional sources cited.

Musset's Lorenzaccio & Hamlet
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page essay that contrasts and compares the characterization of Lorenzaccio, which was created by nineteenth century playwright Alfred de Musset in his play of the same name, to Shakespeare's characterization of Hamlet. Like the tortured Dane, Lorenzaccio, i.e., Lorenzo de Medici, is a good man who becomes corrupted by his desire for revenge. As this suggests, there are distinct similarities between the characters. Both Hamlet and Lorenzo disguise their true nature and intention from their perceived enemies. Both men subjugate their own lives to what their desire for justice. Both men wish to protect women whom they love from the corruption around them. Both men commit murder. The writer also explores differences in their characterization. No additional sources cited.

Perspective Narrative in Camus' The Outsider
[ send me this paper ]
( 8 pp.) The philosophy of The Outsider (1942) is
a philosophy of the absurd. The narrator of the
piece is a middle-class bachelor, Monsieur
Meursault; we are told that he is viewed as someone
of little if any consequence. And the amazing bit
of news is that he doesn't care how he is viewed
at all, because all of society is absurd, and he is
just a small piece of it. So what one does - is
simply what one does, as Meursault really does have
a "benign indifference of the universe." This
discussion will examine how the narrator, Meursault,
aka Camus, gets that message across.
