I remember doing something like this in my English/U.S. History class, so we are in the same shoes. ¯\_✿ ³✿_/¯

Washington has a entwined history with the sport of baseball. From President William Taft to President Barack Obama, every president since William Taft - exept Jimmy Carter - has thrown at least one ceremonial pitch while in office. A lot of presidents have had a history in the sport of baseball. And some of them could have made a career out of it.

President Warren Harding, for example, owned a baseball team in Ohio. Dwight Eisenhower used to play on a junior baseball team at West Point. Even so, Washington did not have a baseball team for almost 3 decades, from 1971, till when the Nationals came in 2005. George W. Bush was the first president to throw a pitch in the new Nationals' new ballpark. The opening pitch of a baseball is truly a POTUS tradition, and always will be - I hope. -

diamong [38]

Answer:

Antigone is a very stubborn character. However, her motives are good. She wants <em>to</em> make sure her brother is treated respectfully in death<em>.</em><em> </em><em>B</em>ut <em>(</em><em>no</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em>)</em> she disobeys the king's orders <em>too</em>. She is not willing to except treating Polyneices badly because of choices he made while living, which is why he <em>was</em> killed in the first place. Rather than follow the king's wishes, she follows her heart. Which gets her into trouble. She doesn't care, though. She excepts her sentence of death and does not waver.

Examine the theme of moral corruption in Hamlet and write an essay of about 200 words on the subject. Be sure to include example
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Moral corruption is evident throughout Hamlet. The statement "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark," made by Marcellus in act I scene IV, sums up the moral corruption in the play.

You may have used these other instances of moral corruption in your answer:

Claudius eyeing his brother's wife, Queen Gertrude

Claudius murdering his brother

Claudius marrying his brother's wife

Claudius and Gertrude attempting to convince Hamlet to move on from his father's death and accept his stepfather

Polonius' treatment of Ophelia and his willingness to do the bidding of Claudius

Prince Hamlet plotting to kill his uncle Claudius

Prince Hamlet abusing his mother and calling her promiscuous

Hamlet killing Polonius instead of Claudius

Claudius ordering the king of England to put his nephew, Hamlet, to death

Claudius poisoning Laertes's sword before his duel with Hamlet

Hamlet stabbing Claudius

the death of all the morally corrupt characters of the play (Hamlet, Polonius, Laertes, Claudius, Gertrude, and even Rosencrantz and Guildenstern), which may mean that corruption will lead to death

You may also have used quotes from the play similar to the one below, in which Hamlet laments his mother's sudden marriage to his uncle:

O God! a beast that wants discourse of reason,

Would have mourn'd longer—married with my uncle,

My father's brother...
