Hamlet is a play by William Shakespeare about a Danish prince named Hamlet who seeks to avenge his father's murder at the hands of his uncle, who has married Hamlet's mother and become the new king. Hamlet struggles with internal conflicts over fulfilling the ghost of his father's demands while battling his uncertainty about the validity of the ghost's claims and whether killing his uncle is the right course of action. Throughout the play, Hamlet acts increasingly erratic, leading other characters to believe he has gone mad. This culminates in a fencing match where Hamlet is mortally wounded by his opponent's poisoned blade. In his dying moments, Hamlet kills his uncle, revealing the murder plot before dying, havingHamlet, Brief Summary

The Spanish Tragedy was written in the late 1580s, likely by Thomas Kyd. It was highly influential, spawning many revenge tragedies. The play is set in a corrupt Spanish court and explores themes of revenge, justice, and the conflict between divine and human justice. It leaves ambiguous how Don Andrea was killed and whether the characters can find justice through legal or divine means, as revenge continues to drive the plot. The play helped establish conventions for the new revenge tragedy genre in Elizabethan theatre. presentation on tom jones

Tom Jones is presented as a rebellious young man by society. He leads his life according to his own perspective of goodness rather than societal conventions. Some key points about Tom's rebellious nature include that he constantly stole apples and ducks as a child, got in fights with his rival Blifil and Mr. Fitzpatrick, lived wildly without manners, and had numerous love affairs. However, Tom was truly loving and kind, and his rebelliousness may have stemmed more from being a motherless foundling and seeking maternal love than actual defiance against society.Tragedy Drama Analysis: Themes of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet

Alexander Pope was a Roman Catholic poet born in London in 1688 who was self-taught and inspired by classical Greek writers. He is known for writing the mock-heroic epic poem "The Rape of the Lock" in 1712, which satirized a trivial incident between two aristocratic families. The poem uses supernatural machinery like sylphs and gnomes to elevate the trivial incident of a lock of hair being cut from a woman, and pokes fun at the outsized importance placed on physical beauty and trivial matters among the aristocracy. It exemplifies the genre of the mock-heroic epic through its use of epic conventions like supernatural elements for trivial matters.Doctor Faustus

The play is set in the Kingdom of Denmark and revolves around Prince Hamlet, who is consumed by grief and anger after the death of his father, King Hamlet, and the subsequent remarriage of his mother, Queen Gertrude, to his uncle, King Claudius.
Hamlet is a complex and psychologically nuanced character who struggles with existential questions about death, revenge, and the meaning of life. The play explores themes of revenge, mortality, madness, and corruption, as Hamlet grapples with the decisions he must make and the consequences that will follow.

Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare about a Danish prince who suspects his uncle of murdering his father. When the ghost of his father appears and confirms that he was poisoned by his brother, Hamlet vows to avenge his death. He feigns madness and stages a play mimicking the murder to prove his uncle's guilt. This causes several accidental deaths, including of Ophelia and her brother Laertes who seeks revenge. In the end, Hamlet kills his uncle in a duel but is also fatally poisoned, naming Fortinbras as the rightful heir to the Danish throne before dying.Random 140312110033-phpapp02 (1)

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spots—systemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AI—that could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.Research & Research Methods: Basic Concepts and Types.pptx
