Critical Lens Essay On Othello
Adrienne Rich once said, "Lying is done with words but also with silence". This means that lying isn't only when one tells something false, but also when one does not speak at all, the truth included. This is generally true. A text that illustrates this quote would have characters who do not reveal the truth at a time when doing so would be important. Othello by William Shakespeare satisfies this quote with characters like Emilia

Frankenstein
Frankenstein The film Frankenstein was greater then I had expected. The film made so much sense once it had all came together. Even though Frankenstein was not at all how he was depicted back in the early 1900's, I think this version was more of a reality.
