...I do think that by doing so it looses a lot of its original meaning. I believe that literature can be interpreted in to many different meanings and ways that other people don't see. To one person Shakespeare can be a legendary writer and to anot her person he can be some idiot that wrote a lot of garbage. After reading this section, I find it interesting that Shakespeare can be interpreted in several various ways. I have seen a few different productions of Shakespeare plays and I can understand the different ways that people have perceived the various plays. Personally, I believe that the difference between a “more faithful” versus a “more free” adaptation of a Shakespearean play is that a show that is “more faithful” tends to follow the time frame and setting that the play was placed in, whereas a “more free” adaptation can change to different time frames and have different surroundings than the play was actually placed in. With a more “faithful” adaptation of Shakespeare we learn more about the history behind the play and what it truly is about. Unfortunately, with a more “freer” adaptation we can lose the history behind the play because the context of the play can change based on the decisions of how the play was interpreted. In a faithful version of a play, the language, setting, costumes, and all other major aspects remain as the author originally wrote them; a free adaptation may change one or more of these elements. A more faithful adaptation has the advantage of...

...``Shakespeare Was Not OF An Age But For All Time`` I agree with the statement ``Shakespeare was not for an age but for all time. `` The words of praise probably the most famous ever written about Shakespeare , were penned by Shakespeare`s good friend and follow writer `Ben Johnson`. For the poet and playwright generally considered the greatest ever is also one of the least known of all literary figures. And his works were indeed created for the popular entertainment of his day with little thought to their immortality. Shakespeare did not take any steps to preserve his writings past their immediate use. (Fortunately his friends did.) With all the academic study of Shakespeare and the trappings of fine culture that have been wrapped around productions of his dramas over the centuries, we often forget what a rollicking, bawdy and entertaining spectacle his plays presented to their original audience — and still can to a modern audience, in the right hands. The timelessness of Shakespeare's themes continue to keep his plays fresh. He dramatized basic issues: love, marriage, familial relationships, gender roles, race, age, class, humor, illness, deception, betrayal, evil, revenge, murder, and death. The essential question that Shakespeare explored in his plays is, "what does it mean to be a human being?" The genius of Shakespeare is that he manged to show us ourselves in every conceivable light. It really doesn't matter when the plays were written since they are about the...

...play will not be as heroic and godly as initially envisioned. This is because there is a shortage in the resources necessary to depict this great spectacle, and it is instead the audience’s responsibility to both create and imagine the play. The opening prologue alone sets the stage for how equivocally this war will be portrayed, and also how frequently the reader’s understanding of Henry will be challenged throughout the play. In Act 1, we are introduced to the crafty Bishop of Canterbury and Bishop of Ely, who discuss a bill that will cause the Church to lose a significant amount of money if passed. They then realize that if they can convince Henry to invade France in order to claim the throne, they can postpone the bill in the meantime, as Canterbury has already proposed to donate a generous amount of money towards the war. Soon after, we meet Henry for the first time, and Canterbury delivers a prolonged speech to justify his claim to declare war with the French, by reassuring Henry that he can indeed inherit the French throne. Leading up to Act 1, scene 2, lines 290-310, King Henry has been presented with a chest full of tennis balls sent from the Dauphin, as a form of mockery to suggest Henry’s immaturity and inability to lead a country. This provokes Henry’s powerful rant, a retaliation to the mockery. This speech provides an essential insight into Henry’s multifaceted personality. It portrays not only Henry’s unpredictable nature, but also in such ambiguity alludes to the...

...The True Richard I have chosen to analyze the character of Richard III due to his cynical yet honest personality. One thing that sticks out about his character is his relationship with the reader and how he tells us exactly what he’s planning. Even when we are told what Richard will do, the reader is still surprised when he goes about the actions. For example, Richard tells us he is “subtle, false, and treacherous”(I.i), but there is nothing we can do to stop him from being that way. Another quality of Richard that sticks out to me is his ability to manipulate his peers. In act one scene two Lady Anne is mourning the death of King Henry VI, but Richard is set on manipulating her into loving him. Richard has no interest in Lady Anne, but instead wants to be closer and closer to becoming King. Richard’s dedication to achieve his goal no matter what obstacles come his way is a defining feature that sticks out to me. Throughout the play, Richard is faced with obstacles that test his commitment to becoming king. His first major test is when he has to win over Lady Anne. Richard killed Henry and knows Anne is out for his guts, but he has the courage to lie to her saying that he did not kill him. Later, Richard admits to killing Henry, but sweet talks Anne by making her believe that the murder was in an attempt to win her over. While reading this scene, we see Richard being honest to the audience, but a liar to the characters in the show. He knows that his actions have caused Lady...

...Question (1): Assume a 45-hr/week and an hourly wage of €21. Material cost is €15 per running meter and the standard inventory value of output is €173 per unit. Overhead is charged weekly at the rate of €1838 and 0.75 times direct cost. Week | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Output | 636 | 576 | 624 | 644 | Workers | 12 | 11 | 11 | 9 | Material (meter) | 4125 | 3675 | 3930 | 4035 | A. Briefly explain the concept of productivity? Productivity Productivity is a measure of the rate at which outputs of goods and services are produced per unit of input (labor, capital, raw materials, etc.). It is calculated as the ratio of the amount of outputs produced to some measure of the amount of input used. Productivity = Quantity of goods and services produced Amount of resources used As the equation indicates, there are two variables in measuring productivity- the amount of production and amount of resources used. Productivity varies with the amount of production relative to the amount of resources used. Productivity can be increased in several ways, which Are given below here- 1. Increase production using the same or a smaller amount of resources. 2. Reduce the amount of resources used while keeping the same production or increasing it. 3. Allow the amount of resources used to increase c production increases more. 4. Allow production to decrease as long as...

...Employment Law (week2) 11/04/2013 1. What do you think are some of the factors in the modern workplace that contribute to a theft of time? How can those factors be managed? A major factor that contributes to the theft of time in the workplace is cell phones. Cell phones have become such a necessity for some people that they carry them virtually every waking hour, including at work. If the company is monitoring calls, an employee is most likely to use their cell phone making personal calls, accessing social networking sites and mostly texting. Using cell phone in the workplace can cause problems because of lost productivity. Employees engaged in personal cell phone conversations or using their cell phones to check social networking sites are wasting their employers' time unless they are on break. The potential for lost productivity is a key reason some employers seek to decrease cell phone use at work. A company can decrease cell phone use by banning phones from all meetings, group training sessions and conferences. Companies can implement and govern cell phone usage policies in the workplace while striking a balance that is fair to the company and its workers. 2.

...world" in which we live? How have the political, social, cultural, and economic forces that we associate with modernity changed our world and its people during the past 500 years? Why has the intercommunication, interaction, and interdependence of the peoples of the world become so much more intense during the past 500 years than they were in earlier ages? How and why did western civilization rise to global domination in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and how has the challenge of western power and cultural prestige affected the course of history of all the World's people? Finally a question that we should be asking throughout the semester: how have the patterns of world history over the past 500 years determined or affected 1) the way we now live and think, and 2) our prospects for peace, prosperity, and the "pursuit of happiness" in the coming decades? This course is NOT primarily a narrative survey of civilizations, dynasties, and nations. The history of humankind is more than the sum of the histories of particular countries or empires. The most important developments in history have not taken place merely within the boundaries of nations. Rather, large-scale patterns of history have unfolded in continental, hemispheric, or global settings, drawing peoples of different languages and cultures into common historical...

...distribute the ball quickly to my teammates to avoid the turnover. I also need cardiovascular endurance to be able to get support to a lone runner that breaks the defensive line so the ball does not get turned over. I have got a good cardiovascular endurance because I have been rugby for 5 years; I also do a lot of PE in school which means the oxygen passes through the alveoli into the red blood cells quicker and I need oxygen to breakdown the excess lactic acid. I also have to have cardiovascular endurance to supply the working muscles and to supply the body with available aerobic energy. In defence every player needs cardiovascular endurance to make a tackle and to be able to get back up to make the next. At half time or at a low intensity part of the game for example a lineout I am in oxygen debt and EPOC occurs (excess post exercise oxygen consumption) which increases my rate of oxygen following exercise. I am able to gain my breath and energy to play again. To improve your cardiovascular endurance you could do the bleep test. The bleep test is a multi-stage fitness test, you must do 20 metres shuttle runs in time with the bleeps until the bleeps get too quick for you. It is a maximal test which means it will take you to your fitness limit. The shuttle runs are done in time to bleep sounds on a pre-recorded audio cassette.

...Supply Chain Management Final Paper Name: Student ID: Instructor: [Abstract] With the updates of music carriers, the market of headsets expanded quickly. Using the in-ear headsets as a sample product, this paper works on the requirements, souring, logistics, sustainability and costs of the product, and finally works out a supply chain for this product. [Keywords] Supply chain management, headsets Overview Product introduction I choose customized in-ear headsets (or earbuds) as my product. And my firm will be located in Shanghai, PRC. Several colors and different sound drivers are provided. The type of sound drivers used in the headsets, the appearance of the shells and the cable color are determined by customers. Background information As music players get smaller and smaller today, people found there’s no more space for the convenience promotion of music carriers. Thus, customers start to focus on the quality of music they hear. In the past years, the market of earbuds especially those in-ear headsets whose price is over $50 has expanded, and becomes a 10-billion trade. I’m quite interested in audio products and this idea came out when I was looking for a new earphone on some e-stores. That moment I was browsing the official site of Ultimate Ears, the very famous brand of professional ear monitors, and it’s also well known for its customized in-ear monitors for vocalists. I hope to figure out how this kind of customized-pattern works if it is applied...
