Working record of my drama exam.

In the beginning of the preparation of the flesh is mine I was working with lethaniel and Dillon on two separate scenes but because of complications as a group we have decided that they should do a scene together and I shall get a new partner. That partner was mackai Byrne.

He was an excellent partner as he did not play around during the lessons matter of fact he came up with the idea of practicing outside of the classroom while the others practiced inside so we could minimise background noise.

The scene that we performed was act 1 scene 1.

 

I portrayed the character of Agamemnon whilst he portrayed the protagonist, Achilles.

Agamemnon is the main antagonist of the play, although he is a Greek mythological character in this specific play he represents Israel. Hecuba, who isn’t part of our scene , represents Palestine but in the original mythology she represents Troy.

 

Achilles is an achean warrior in Greek mythology but in this flesh is mine he is the greatest solider to fight for the Israelites.

Hamlet soliloquy analysis

shakespeare uses the metaphor slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing death?to die. This quote is used to define what hamlet is going through to kill his uncle or to commit suicide as it would be cowardly not too do either. The saying slings and arrows of outrageous fortune is defining that hamlet is being missiled with the mental tormention of killing his incestious uncle which causes his insanity. The rest of the quote is basically explaining that hamlet is battling the thoughts of suicide. The line “and opposing death?to die” is I believe is that not inflicting death to Claudius will forcibly make him kill him selve.

To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we

Enders game

Enders game is a story about the protagonist Andrew ‘ender’ wiggin.

the book begins with the removal of Enders monitor which is a futuristic device that lets his superiors connect to his body without any removal his free will, it also lets them see through his eyes to “protect” him from harm. The real reason however for the monitors removal is that they believe that he is ready to join the battle school. This is because over the period of 50 years the alien race ‘buggers’ have invaded earth twice and the humans are taking precautions to prevent a third one.
