You should be writing modern day scenes of the "get thee to a nunery" scene and preparing to present them in class. Also, please don't forget to prepare your vocabulary words. See you Tuesday.

It is true in any age much like what King Claudius once stated that “Madness in great ones must not unwatched go”. In any way, Madness in people cannot go without it being seen. It cannot go unattended without considering that madness can be viewed in a variety of ways. Madness can be seen as a way of disillusion, anger, frustration, and even at times, obsession. An example of this in Hamlet is when Hamlet acts out in a crazy, almost wild way, even going as far as being half naked and touching his sister in a strange way. This can be seen as Madness in a person acting out in anger and disillusionment. It can also be seen as madness that a normal teenager would show.
Evidence in a news story that can support this is when a person loses his cool and lashes out in anger in a way that it is almost uncalled for and can hurt people, who feel that whatever they said in anger, can almost make them feel uncomfortable. This brings up the controversy over Comedian Michael Richards, whose tirade and response, in which he used a racial slur over and over. What he did is madness in anger and that for many, the racial slur that he used has a history of degrading a race or people for no reason. To that, how he said it can cause people to feel uncomfortable and hurt. To me, how he exhibited his madness is not only shocking, but wrong.
