Christopher Marlowe�s �Doctor Faustus� and the Universal Truth he Presents
[ send me this paper ]
This 4 page report discusses a story of a man who was fundamentally doomed to eternal damnation because of his deal, signed in blood, with the devil. If one accepts the premise of Aristotle that a tragic hero is a person of stature who has a critical weakness that leads to his downfall but that downfall results in his suffering and final understanding or wisdom, then one cannot help but see Faustus as a tragic character. This report addresses that fact and then discusses what Marlowe�s goal was in presenting this story. No sources listed.

Classical and Literary Traditions in Literary Criticism
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page report discusses the fact that even though the classical and the romantic traditions of criticism in literature both deal with literature, each views it from entirely different perspectives. In the �classical� tradition of literature the primary issue is one in which the definition of the work is stated through what has been determined throughout the history of Western literature as the framework in which a literary work appropriately exists. In comparison, the assumption that sensation must surely be preferable to thinking serves as an example of the ways in which the Romantics elevated emotion over reason, and what they perceived to be the true nature of life rather than that constructed by humanity. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Clytemnestra and Medea
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that contrasts how Clytemnestra and Medea are portrayed in plays by Aeschylus and Euripides, respectively. Each woman enacts a terrible vengeance on her husband, showing that she is capable of murder in order to feel that her honor as been upheld. However, a close examination of these plays demonstrates that the playwrights show these similar women in very dissimilar light. Clytemnestra is treated by Aeschylus as a threat to the fabric of Greek society. Medea, on the other hand, is shown in a much more sympathetic light by Euripides, who lays considerable blame for her actions on the societal role of women at that time, and on the dishonorable actions of her husband Jason.
