The power is not corrupting. He is hopeful and determined, which makes him the powerful icon in the poem. ]]> 2017-10-31 14:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/202157621 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/214162492 Power comes into play with the provost and the mayor. They are the most powerful because they know how to trick everyone into certain situations which allows them to get the outcome they want. ]]> 2017-12-07 15:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/214162492 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215503714 Power comes into play in Viva La Vada as it discusses a king. The song tells the story of a king who became too powerful that corruption led to his downfall. The king was wicked, wild, and ruled with an authority that shocked others around. He remembered how lonesome being a king was and wondered why and who would want to be king. ]]> 2017-12-12 16:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215503714 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215503864 Power comes into play as the poem describes a decaying statue that remains powerful because of the words engraved on it. The sculptor wrote," My name is Ozymandias, King of kings, Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!". Even though the statue has been damaged it still portrays the meaning of once being a powerful artifact. The quote doesn't make the characters corrupt, it only preserves the power the statue once displayed. ]]> 2017-12-12 16:45:51 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215503864 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215504143 Power comes into play with The Kid. Since him and Lizzie have been together, he has introduced her to a lifestyle that causes her to change, and is hard for to come back from. The power he has over her is like a corruption because it's changing her into a different person. The characters are risky, dangerous, and criminals who have lacked a positive influence in their lives. ]]> 2017-12-12 16:46:09 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215504143 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215504840 Power comes into play with all of the characters in Macbeth who want to become king. The desire of power corrupts them because it causes them to do bad things in order to get the outcome they want. Most of these characters are more independent, controlling, and determined than the others.

The textual evidence that supports this idea would be found in paragraph 42, after Mary's husband had told her the news she killed him, which is not something she had planned to do. 
The ending is ironic because as the police are searching for the murder weapon they do not realize that they have just eaten it, and Mary laughs because she knows what has really happened.]]> 2017-12-13 16:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215881546 atwatemi https://padlet.com/atwatemi/jwlvbyu2to7m/wish/215881830 The theme of the story was "many risks come with youth and freedom". The figurative language in the text highlights how free Icarus felt, but also contributes to the theme by showing how Icarus' youth and freedom led to him risking his life.
