In his play Twelfth Night, William Shakespeare portrayed the character Malvolio as being excessively arrogant and full of self-pride. These negative qualities, emphasized throughout the play, would inevitably prove harmful to Malvolio as he is tricked through a forged note that he believes his beloved Olivia wrote to him. Through Malvolio, Shakespeare intended to show that individuals need to have a balanced sense of self-awareness, to recognize their flaws, and to try to correct such flaws -- something Malvolio fails to do.

When people speak of education it is generally regarded that education is beneficial to all persons involved with it. However in the case of Africa, this is not necessarily the truth. In Africa, Western education was forced upon the native people. The Africans already had a system of educating their youths in place before the coming of the Europeans to Africa. Generally, the purpose of Western education is seen as to benefit the Africans. The truth is different. Europeans educated Africans solely for the ability to exploit these people of their labor and intellect. Western education for Africans during the colonial period was not beneficial to the Africans, and was actually destructive to their traditional society.

The story runs like a damaged anthill pouring ants. I find Dickens swaying from Shakespeare to Poe a mystic and somewhat poetic slide. At Times very hard to follow. The story is amuck with characters being introduced at odd times. The characters although fictional gives a good account of the human suffering and the terror of the times. It is interesting to note Dickens continued interest with spiritual metaphors in this work following the same interest of spirituality shown in A Christmas Carole.

A radio talk on BBC by George Bernard Shaw and it has been taken from Modern Prose, edited by Michael Thorpe.Here,with his characteristic sneer, Shaw discusses the true meaning of freedom and its present-day implications. Shaw was indoctrinated into socialism quite early in his life due to his contact with Sidney and Beatrice Webb and William Morris, and his reading of Marx, who, he said, "made a man of me." He was also influenced by the writings of Henry George and he brought a courageous, clear mind to the study of social problems. Like his predecessor Samuel Butler, Shaw tore off veils and laid bare the illusions of complacently blind people.
