In class writing 4/6

Most revere Shakespeare's works as marvelous and great pieces of literature. Many of these believe that the works should be left alone and not tampered with. They gawk at the ways people have taken the plays and changed, adapted, and spun off. They claim that this wonderful literature should not be marred by such foolishness as these adaptations. What these people fail to realize is that many have difficulty understanding the original Shakespearean language. The adaptations allow Shakespeare's works to reach into places it would not have been able to penetrate before. Also, the fact that Shakespeare's works have been adapted this much is a sign of how great they are. The adaptations are the medals around the necks of his works, showing off his achievement.

Part 2:
In Macbeth Manga, the panels showing Lady Macbeth when she is going insane portray the scene well. As she is walking to wash the "blood" off of her hands, she has a sallow, crazed look about her. This image gives life to the words and gives a very good impression of what she must be feeling and look like. The look on her face as she examines her hands is perfect for showing her fear and guilt over the murder.

Part 3:
The relationship between Puck and Oberon is quite dynamic. Oberon is Puck's master. Puck his servant, messenger, but also his jester. Puck finds a merry jest in others' misfortunes, and often he uses these to entertain his master and the rest of his master's company. However, Oberon is not always amused by Puck's jests. When Puck screws up and drips the flower into Lysander's eyes instead of Demetrius' eyes, Puck finds the interaction between the lovers funny, while Oberon is upset with Puck. Puck is always very faithful to Oberon and never purposefully crosses him. Oberon, though occasionally upset with Puck's actions, still never seems very angry with Puck himself.
