Montresor could be just a sadistic character who wants to murder his enemy for

As related earlier, catharsis aims to elicit pity and fear in order to purge such emotions from the audience. As such, the tragic hero’s punishment must not be considered entirely deserved otherwise it would be seen as justice and the cathartic effect would not take place.

However, in order to confirm that Oedipus’ punishment exceeds his crime, both must be identified. Oedipus’ crime is quite simply his attempt to escape his own fate.

When confronted with the choice between doing it themselves and hiring a pest control company, most initially opt to do it themselves.

The farmers had experienced so much, and taxes had affected them profoundly to the point where they wanted to overthrow the government in control. In order to do this they needed to fight for change, so at first, they began handing out petitions for paper cash, bring down taxes and judicial reforms. This was the initial step of building up another kind of government. However, there were no signs of modification that had been executed by the government, so farmers had chosen to arrange a new plan. The plan was to just sit outside of a variety of courts and wait until they would close everything down.

The Peasants’ War began in June 1524 when peasants in Stühlingen refused to fulfill obligations that they regarded as unfair and their protests led to a series of rebellions over the coming months.

Penal sanctioning represented for him a tangible example of the ‘collective conscience’ at work, in a process that both expressed and regenerated society’s values.” It is difficult to judge a case like Niveen’s because it lack physical evidence, thus it is entirely based on cultural moral values. Contrary to Foucault’s theory, Durkheim considered punishment irrational, he believed that: “[P]assion… is the soul of punishment.” Niveen’s trail seemed to be driven by passion: the social worker’s passion to penalize a ‘bad mother’.
