Antigone
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. In the play Antigone by Sophocles, the reader is shown a difference between the attitudes of the males and the females in Greek society. In fact, these views make us suspect that Sophocles was a feminist in his portrayal of the female in Greek society. This opinion is easily justified when we examine different aspects of the play. Bibliography cites one source.

Antigone, Hippolyte, and Nora
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the
stories of Antigone, Hippolyte, and Nora of Henrik Ibsen’s “A
Doll’s House.” Initially, “Antigone” appears to be an obvious
story of political dilemmas focusing on civil disobedience and
civic responsibility, rather than the personal development and
revolution of one woman. Hippolyte is the mythological story of a
great queen killed by Hercules. Nora Helmer is the “modern”
construct and is a character in Henrik Ibsen’s famous play “A
Doll’s House.” Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Anton Chekhov's 'The Cherry Orchard': Productions
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Myriad productions have been created that revolved around Anton Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard; however, time after time each rendering failed to present the play in the comedic style that Chekhov had originally intended. Curiously, even the playwright's own wife did not detect the comedic air to her husband's tale, noting only that she expressed her delight at the play and the tears it evoked. Amazed at how she and all other members of the company could not experience the intended farce, Chekhov finally relinquished his struggle to maintain The Cherry Orchard as a comedy. As such, Stanislavsky's production – the first of its kind – presented a melancholy version. The writer compares Stanislavsky's production with those of Andrei Serban, Peter Brook and Lucian Pintilie.
Bibliography lists 3 sources.
