    IMPOSSIBLE GRIEF:· MOTIVATION AND INTENTION IN 1MACHETH KER WELLS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE RE~UIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF FINE ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN THEATRE YORK UNIVERSITY, TORONTO, ONTARIO SEPTEMBER 2013 ©KER WELLS, 2013 ii Abstract This paper considers the issues of identification and motivation in Shakespeare's Macbeth. Proceeding from the proposal that the play allows for a remarkable level of audience identification for the characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, considering their heinous acts, reasons for this level of identification are explored. Two events referred to in the text of Macbeth, but preceding the time of the play, are identified as potentially significant motivating factors in the couple's actions: Macbeth's recent experience of intense battle, and the couple's apparent past loss of a child. Supporting textual evidence is presented in addition to third party research into the effects of close combat and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and the psychological effects on parents of losing a child. Various staging and design implications, opportunities, and ideas that result from these proposals are explored with direct reference to the author's production of Macbeth in Toronto's High Park. iii Dedicated to Marilyn Wells, to L.L.M, and to all the others who have taught me. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ................................................................................. ii Introduction ..........................................................................

Achilles’ suffering is centered on the loss of his best friend Patroclus, while the suffering of Priam – although long in the making due to the attack on his city and his family – has reached a new level of despair with the loss of his dearest son Hector.

  • Rhetorical Appeals (Or Modes of Persuasion)
    Rhetorical Appeals (or modes of persuasion) The rhetorical appeals were introduced by Aristotle (382-322 B.C.) in his text Rhetoric: Of the modes of persuasion furnished by the spoken word there are three kinds. [...] Persuasion is achieved by the speaker's personal character when the speech is so spoken as to make us think him credible. [...] Secondly, persuasion may come through the hearers, when the speech stirs their emotions. [...] Thirdly, persuasion is effected through the speech itself when we have proved a truth or an apparent truth by means of the persuasive arguments suitable to the case in question. Three Appeals Ethos Proof in the Persuader (ethical appeal) Arguments based on increasing the writer or the paper’s credibility and authority o How knowledgeable and prepared is the writer Types o Referring to your skills or titles o Research from reliable sources o Personal Experience and/or interest in the topic o References to credible individuals (quotes and paraphrase) Pros: enhances writer; makes other research look better; adds new voices Cons: bias may influence; lack of expertise shows; doesn’t work by itself Pathos (the pathetic) Emotional appeals Arguments based on reactions from readers o Connects argument to reader values Types o Vivid Language (metaphor, simile, word choice) o Examples/Stories o Imagery (ex: animal rights newsletters or arguments about abortion) Pros: highly persuasive; involves readers; can lead to quick action Cons: over-emotion; easier to disprove; readers may have negative reaction Logos Logical appeals Appeals and arguments that refer to factual proof, evidence, and/or reason Types o Statistics o Examples o Cause and Effect o Syllogism (A + B = C) Pros: hard to disprove; highly persuasive; makes writer look more prepared (enhances ethos) Cons: Numbers can lie or confuse; may not intrigue reader (lack of emotion); may be inaccurate Sources to consult: Lunsford, Andrea.

  • A Reflection on Greek Space/Time Concepts As Design Implications in Minecraft Isaac Lenhart I.T
    Kairotopos: A reflection on Greek space/time concepts as design implications in Minecraft Isaac Lenhart I.T. University of Copenhagen Rued Langgaards Vej 7 DK – 2300 Copenhagen S Denmark +45 72 18 50 00 [email protected] ABSTRACT The game of Minecraft provides an open virtual environment which is somewhere between game and pseudo-game framework (at the current level of development) in which the player is free to explore, investigate and change the world around them. The “virtual environment” of Minecraft naturally involves a description and participation of a spatial and temporal framework in which the player is placed, and presents a unique set of qualities that cross into several categories of Greek notions of the meaning of space and time This paper first describes the historical concepts that the ancient Greeks used for space and time and discusses their links to the concepts of theoretical and technical skills. These concepts are then examined in combination and individually. Finally, this paper describes the mechanics and affordances within the Minecraft environment that are either affected by these spatiotemporal terms or which have impact on the spatiotemporal experiences of the player.

[Type text] INTRODUCTION The concepts of space and time were discussed extensively by the ancient Greeks, who formulated these ideas during their discussions around rhetoric, ethics, metaphysics and physics. Philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Gorgias, Epicurus, as well as the Stoic, Atomist and Pythagorean schools, had their own originating ideas about the qualities and structure of space and time.
