Love & Relationships: Then & Now

...claim to have known that they were supposed to be with someone the second they met them, and some say that one cannot experience love at first sight because one does not really know someone until they spend quality time with the person they believe that they are meant to be with. The concept and accepted, societal definition of a real, serious relationship has changed so much throughout history, and Taming of the Shrew and 10 Things I Hate About You are two examples that show this progression. In the 1600’s, relationships and love were very rare, men just wanted to marry the most beautiful woman; whereas in modern times, relationships are portrayed as much more casual. In Shakespeare’s play, Taming of the Shrew, marriage is a very important concept, but it is very different than it is now. It is the fathers job to give away his daughters to the most wiling suitor, or the man who makes the best deal. If a suitor is interested in pursuing and marrying someone, the suitor will approach the daughter’s father and meet with him. They write a contract, willing things to the suitor and the father’s daughter for when the father dies, such as large proportions of land, or his home. If the daughter has multiple suitors, the father will choose who presented him with the best contract, not necessarily who loves his daughter the most or who his daughter wants to be with. Petruchio and Katharina’s marriage is a good example, because her father gives Katharina to Petruchio because of the contract...

Taming of the Shrew Papaer

...conflict can resolve leading to the formation of a new society, indicated by some kind of party or festival (Frye 163). Frye further explains that this structural component of comedy is the origin of comedic form. At first William Shakespeare’s play, The Taming of the Shrew seems to have a clear message that the green world theory does not define the structure of the play and that Petruchio tames Katherine. While this could be an interpretation of the play, I find it unlikely that this is the case. The analysis of the film, 10 Things I Hate About You, opens the door visually to see the green world theory in action, which allows the reader to appreciate The Taming of the Shrew as a comedy as well as reinterpret its conclusion. The green world theory is the structural backbone of The Taming of the Shrew, and commands that Katherine and Petruchio change over the course of the play and ultimately both are tamed. The green world theory can be seen in 10 Things by analyzing Frye’s key elements of comedy, such as form, character type, and repetition. The movie opens in an old society where Kat and Bianca’s father, who plays the role of the senex (as Frye suggests, a character in charge of the plays society) and strictly controls the environment in a way that is not fitting for the time period (Frye 171). He does not allow either of his daughters to date, and this becomes a problem for the young men interested in dating Bianca. The plot is propelled in the green world when...

The Shrew Comparison

...In the play The Taming of the Shrew and the movie 10 Things I Hate about You there are many similarities and differences. They both have the same plot, characters have the same names and/or characteristics in the play and movie, and they have similar settings and themes. But they are also different in ways. In the play Taming of the Shrew the main characters are a man named Petruchio who wants to marry Katherine, who has a bad temper. Then there is Lucentio, who is in love with Bianca, Katherine’s pure, loving, kind, younger sister, and will do anything to win her over. In 10 Things I Hate about You, we have Patrick, who falls in love with Kat, a bad-tempered girl, and Cameron, who falls in love with Bianca Stratford, a loving girl and who...

10 Things I Hate About You and the Pursuit of Happiness

...10 Things I Hate About You and the Pursuit of Happiness 10 Things I Hate About You is a Shakespearian parody that is based on his literary work, Taming the Shrew, but also pays homage to his other works as well. This film is a loose adaptation that uses modern day teenage problems and settings as well as modern day language in place of Shakespeare’s old world customs and a language that has long since been put to rest. While this film has many archetypical characters, concepts, themes and symbols, one thing sticks out the most and that is the concept of the pursuit of happiness. No matter what day in age we are in this is a concept that we as humans are always trying to obtain. The induction of this film surrounds around the character Cameron (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a new-comer that is being shown around by school by his new friend Michael, as he burns, pines and perishes over the sweet, sexy and much adored innocence that is Bianca Stratford (Larissa Oleynik). It is here that you learn that she is untouchable as her tyrannical father will not let her date. At this time, you are also introduced to a few key characters such as Joey Donner (Andrew Keegan), the egocentric king of the popular crowd and Katarina “Kat” Stratford (Julia Stiles), the polar opposite of her younger sister and plays an ill-tempered harridan with cutting wit that is hell bent to not be tempted by the idiocies of teenage life. It is here that the pursuit of happiness starts. Cameron (Joseph Gordon-Levitt)...

Shakespeare: an Observation of Life

...Shakespeare: An Observation of Life What is it about Shakespeare’s characters and stories that make us all able to relate in some way or another 400 years after they are written? Maybe it’s his take on inner conflict, or is it how he never portrays a hero as perfect, or a villain as all evil? There is a certain universal truth about the human condition in every story. Whether it is the tragic outcome of unchecked greed and ambition, an unrelenting desire for revenge, or the pursuit of love, his representation of human nature is just as real and as relevant today, as it has been through the centuries. Most of Shakespeare’s characters are complex personalities led into tragedy by their shortcomings (Johnson). Even Shakespeare’s heroes are never just heroes; Shakespeare tends to build his stories through “false heroes” such as Othello, Anthony and Brutus, and “good villains” or “villains with a conscious” like Macbeth (Johnson). It is this type of inner conflict that makes Shakespeare’s stories so insightful and relatable. People love to identify with the hero. They like to think of themselves as heroes in their own lives and the success of a hero in a story makes them feel better about their chances of success in their own lives. While a hero may be the object of any story, a hero is only as great as the obstacle he can overcome (Pattison). The obstacle can be almost anything, it could be a tornado ripping through a city or a killer great white shark, but it is the human villain...

Ten Things I Hate About You Essay

...The Shrew And The Strength Katherine is a very complex character in Taming Of The Shrew and Ten Things I Hate About You. Kat knows exactly where she stands and is confident enough to open her mouth even when it can be little overbearing. Kat has a strong sense of self but can be blinded by love and I use the term “love” loosely in her taming of the shrew self because she isn’t really loved she is “loved’ because is tamed. In the movie though she is much harder to barge from the anchors the hold her to her rough demeanor but she keeps her anchors and incorporates Patrick into her personality instead of throwing it into the trash for a him. She is loved despite the fact she isn’t tamed. Let’s start at the very beginning of when we first meet Kat. A strong and independent women who stays true to herself and won’t let anything stumble in her path of feminism and strength “Why should I live up to other people's expectations instead of my own? -10 things” Kat proclaims. Though we can say she was strong and independent some may see that as snappy, rude and well the “B” word. “People...

10 Things I Hate About You Analysis

...In 1593, William Shakespeare wrote “The Taming of the Shrew” and in 1999 “10 Things I Hate About You” made its debut in theaters as a modern adaptation of Shakespeare’s play. Both works are comedies that deal with the theme of gender playing a part in character’s roles in society. The modern adaptation, directed by Gil Junger, sets the plot in a high school and adds more of a teenage romance twist on the story. Although “10 Things I Hate About You” may not follow the exact storyline of William Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew”, there are many similarities between the two works including characters, dialogue, and theme (Andrews vi, IMDb). William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon to John and Mary Shakespeare. In 1582,...

Have you started to see yourself hunching when you walk? If we had lockers in middle school it would solve all these problems. Lockers would make a big difference in middle school. Reasons we should have lockers are having a place to keep our stuff, personal space, and less to carry on our backs.

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff

...Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff Abstract This book report is about Richard Carlson’s book, “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff…and it’s All Small Stuff”. The book explores how small the small things can cause stress to people, and gives advice on how to combat those small things. Carlson (1997) describes different ways to calm down during the hectic, day-to-day life, and how to remove stress by changing your perspective about things. Carlson offers 100 different sections of advice, organized in chapter formats. Carlson teaches the reader to look at life another way and gives relevant examples on how to do this to eliminate daily stress. Carlson gives such advice as to “live in the present moment” and “to make peace with imperfection”, among other stress reliving advice. Carlson’s main objective is to shift the reader’s paradigm on what is really important in the day-to-day life and how changing your thinking can greatly impact your life. The book “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff…and it’s all Small Stuff” by Richard Carlson was a very profound book to read. It was both eye-opening, and an effective reminder that negative or bad things that happen to us can’t always be taken too seriously. We go about our lives and react to things, treating things as a constant emergency and don’t stop to think what that reaction may cause. This is the biggest point that Carlson tries to makes in the book, in that how we relate to our problems...

...Stuff Shells for the Caribbean Families often pass down favorite recipes from generation to generation or from friend to friend. I took a moment to talk with my wife, Antalaya Israel who of which has a West Indian background (Trinidad). We spoke about her family favorite dish or at least her favorite, and to bring in that recipe to share. Surprisingly for Caribbean women, stuff shells were and still are this Trinidadian favorite dish of all times. Now I get it because being from Bermuda, I tend to lean more to Italian dishes as well but my wife is the oldest of three girls and lived with a mother from my observations, that cooked nothing but soul/Caribbean cuisines. At the end of this interview, I will encourage the reader(s) to try my wife’s recipe for stuff shells. I use my wife as a reliable source for this project because of her family’s background---Trinidadian. There’s no secret that Caribbean women love to cook, and not just love but can actually put great things together in the kitchen. Her mother and I often argue about who is the better cook but to be honest, her mother is a very good cook. From the spices she uses to presentation. As a matter of fact, she has a catering company---she being the mother. Trinidad cuisine is known for a number of dishes that has contributed to the culinary world.

To discard objects intended to future use…feels like dashing hopes, losing opportunities, squandering potential” (Chocano). They put memories into the items they buy, which is why they get anguished when someone throws it out or when they are being asked to throw it out themselves. It means so much value to them that it is hard for them to let their junk go. Although they lack the discipline of putting a limit to their buy, they should be praised for not adding onto the depletion of...
