  • Richard III Good Vs Evil

    489 Words  | 2 Pages

    Though many view Machiavelli as evil, his teachings are better seen as harsh and stable. Richard III has much to learn from Machiavelli, for his rule is unstable and overly oppressive. Machiavelli makes the distinction that one should either gain the subjects' approval or should crush them unforgivingly, two opposite extremes. Richard, however, switches between his type of ruling: somtimes he orders people to die, while other times he manipulates them, sparing their life. As Machiavelli teaches his audience in his book The Prince, if one hurts his subjects in a not fatal manner, they will strike back, seeking revenge; and this is exactly what happens to Richard.

  • Ahab's Evil In The Sight Of God

    549 Words  | 3 Pages

    Being the king of Israel and married to a non-Israelite princess, Jezebel, Ahab does evil in the sight of God by participating in the worship of Baal and other idols (Wyatt, 2012). With difficulty accomplishing his tasks as the king, Ahab possesses a rude, sad personality that goes beyond any that have ruled before him (Wyatt, 2012). Compensating for his inept abilities, Jezebel is strong in many tasks and promotes her belief in Baal throughout Israel, thus threatening Israel’s belief in Yahweh by questioning their beliefs that he is the true God of Israel (Wyatt, 2012). Being an Israeli prophet, Elijah and Jezebel are often in conflict over the belief’s that each has in a higher deity (Wyatt, 2012). Through Elijah’s pronouncement that Israel will face a great drought, which will ultimately affect their crops and own livelihood, conflict arises over whose god controls the weather, fertility of the crops, and the success or failure of life in Israel (Wyatt, 2012).

As the boys got madder, more evil thoughts and plans come into their heads, and they slowly take over their bodies, causing them to do bad and crazy things to each other. For example, when Robert pulled the lever that caused the rock to roll down the hill, and when Jack ordered everyone to hunt down and kill Ralph, and when the boys murder Simon, because they really want to get rid of the “beast.” They would do anything to have the chance of it gone, even when the “beast” is actually the evil inside all of them, and that when they get scared, or when their life is at stake, the “beast” inside all of them comes
