Lear——A Combination of Justice and InjusticeAnalysis of Lear’s Character in King Lear

With no knowledge of justice, Lear makes a serious mistake in judgment. If one cannot manage the relationship between justice and injustice; particularly, if a ruler always thinks the justice should serve him but forgets he should as well obey the social disciplines; balance justice and injustice, this ruler will destroy his country. Only After a violent journey, Lear recognizes that he has misused justice and he bears responsibility for both his own problems and for those of others who suffers equally. He has learned that no one is above justice. The whole process makes Lear regret and remorse, which at the same time combines his justice and injustice.     

法律约束与指环之爱——莎士比亚《威尼斯商人》指环隐喻研究

指环在西方文化中的重要性众所周知。在《威尼斯商人》中,波西亚在与巴塞尼奥结婚后,表达了自己的忠诚．那个戒指是他们婚姻与爱情的象征。同样．夏洛克也把妻子给他的指环当成了命根。因此,对于他们来说,指环意味着一种爱、一种责任、一种束缚。莎士比亚灵活自如地让此剧的种种矛盾冲突一一化解,最后以大团圆收场。但由始至终．他都在暗示一个不言而喻的真理：法律在构建一个和谐社会中的重要地位。不论指环还是法律．都可以用“约束”一词加以概括。约束可以是一个圆圈就像指环一样,也可以是法律,因为它们有着同样的功效。
