“Natural Slaves” in Shakespeare’s “Tempest” and Aristotle’s “Politics”
[ send me this essay ]
A five page paper looking at these two works in terms of their treatment of the concept of the “natural slave.” The paper concludes that if by “natural slave,” Aristotle meant that one’s fitness to rule or serve is based on one’s aristocratic or menial birth, Shakespeare would have disagreed with that. But he would have agreed that certain people just don’t make good leaders and would be better off in a supporting role. No additional sources.

Is Hamlet A Definitive Tragedy?
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page paper on Shakespeare's very complex play. Looking specifically at the play's resolution and the characterization of Hamlet, the paper analyzes this play in terms of the rules of classical tragedy put forth in Aristotle's Poetics. It argues that while Hamlet is unquestionably a tragedy from our point of view, it does not in several important respects conform to Aristotle's formula. Bibliography lists 2 additional sources.

Tom Stoppard's 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead'
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay exploring how the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead reflects specific aspects of life: 1. humans as social animals and 2. how the individual finds his or her place in society. The confusions and feelings of what am I doing here and why am I doing it are emphasized.

Feminism in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and “Lysistrata”
[ send me this essay ]
An eight page paper looking at the issue of feminism in these two plays by William Shakespeare and Aristophanes, respectively. The paper argues that both writers mocked women -- in “Lysistrata” because they were too unfeminine, and in “Midsummer Night’s Dream” because they were too irrational -- and shows how both plays call for a return to an ordered society at the end. No additional sources.
