O knihe

Essay from the year 2014 in the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 1,0, , course: Shakespeare I, language: English, abstract: "[T]he action of hurting or harming someone in return for an injury or wrong suffered at their hands", as the Oxford Dictionary defines "revenge", which is a central motif in many of William Shakespeare's works. Be it the classical avenging form of revenge, or more subtle ones, it is key to a proper understanding of Shakespeare's oeuvre. We need to focus especially on "Julius Caesar" and "Titus Andronicus", but might also be able to see certain depictions of revenge in "Henry IV (Part One)".

Generally speaking, "revenge in its cruelest forms is an element in every category of [Shakespeare's] plays except the 'happy' comedies" (Kimpel 120).
