        <description><![CDATA[Review the teacher's prompt - does your teacher want you to explain how Gloucester / Richard III develops as a character, a leader, or to explain how his "character", his personhood, develops? This might help to focus your answer.
First, read about the War of the Roses and the houses of York and Lancaster to get a feel forthe contextof the play.  You will thus begin to understand the importance of succession, precedence, and order that...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[
"And therefore, since I cannot prove a loverTo entertain these fair well-spoken days,I am determined to prove a villainAnd hate the idle pleasures of these days."(I, i) (Shakespeare)

There is no doubt from the very beginning of the play that Richard is very evil, he is open about it, expressing his temperament, making it clear from the start.

"Richard III is a born villain, pushed to the forefront by the evil of others but, at bottom, a...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Richard dreamt that a parade of ghosts- those that Richard had murdered enters the stage. Each of the ghosts criticized him and condemned him for the misery that they had to suffered due to his cruelty and cursed him by saying that he will be killed the next morning and ordered him to go and die and be fearful
Next, the ghosts went to Richmond's side and told him that they were on his side and he would one day rule England and make Richard...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The most famous crime that King Richard III did in history, which is demonized by many people in centuries and still are is the murder of the two princes in the tower of London, who were innocent, or you could say "mockingbirds" of the entire story.
Despite the fact that the princes were very young and had a small role in the entire story, they were very talented and very engaging and memorable figures in the story.
They could see through...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[He is a very complicated character in the story and he is also the dominant force in the story as he is both the protagonist, which means the main character and the main villain himself. He is the source of intense exploration of the psychology of evil.
He is the villain of the story, who would stop at nothing to achieve his dreams, even by means killing someone. He is the master of trickery and the exploitationof people's innocent minds....]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ This scene was psychologically complicated and confusing. It was completely ridiculous that Richard can win Lady Anne's hand in marriage. He had murdered with his own hands, her husband, the dead Henry VI and King Henry. It is quite hard for readers to comprehend that Anne would wear his ring and let him court her, who had murdered her husband. It is complete insanity!
This shows us that Richard's mastery with his manipulation and...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The way Richard manipulates Lady Anne helps us to see what type of person Richard is and just how capable he is of attaining whatever it is he wants.  There is no compassion, no love, and no understanding to his character and we see this clearly as Richard tries to woo the newly widowed Lady Anne.  This sociopathic behavior causes the reader to develop a strong interest in both the character and what will pan out as we move through the...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Margaret and Richard are alike in that they both present us with blatant displays of wickedness, resentment, and sheer evil.  Margaret only plays a minor role in this play, but her dialogue and actions are extremely powerful.  She often prowls the castle mumbling and complaining to herself, and through this behavior we see that her life is full of misery.  Her first line of the play reads, "And lessened be that small, God I beseech him. ...]]></description>
