How symbolic is Brother Man?

The novel Brother Man i a very symbolic book. I agree with this statement for various reasons. The book portrays many scenes that make the book very symbolic. With reference to pages 178- 181, there is a biblical allusion that addresses the crucifixion of Jesus. Just like Jesus, Brother Man was turned on by the people with whom he thought believed in him and followed him because he helped them whenever they needed it. They threw rocks at him and totally disguarded all the things Brother Man did for them just to torment him despite the good in him. This also seems to make the story ironic, since it's ironic that a good man would be treated so harshly.
In addition to that, there were also symbols that seem to make people within the novel to have some sort of belief. For example on page 116, when Cordelia heard the owl hoot three times and the dog bayed at the moon. She was terrified when she observed this action taking place and didn't know how to react to it.

The life of William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare was born on April 23rd, 1564, St. George's Day, in Stratford-Upon- Avon in England, to his proud parents, John and Mary Shakespeare. He was the 3rd child of 8 children, as well as the eldest son and had 4 sisters and 3 brothers. Shakespeare seemed to have been well-off in his childhood, in terms of the class him and his family were in and their financial status. This is because his mother was the daughter of a wealthy landowner and his father was a glovemaker and local politician. As a young boy, he enjoyed reading stories written by Latin authors and learning English and Latin. He attained his education at the Stratford Grammar School that he attended from the age of 6 to the age of 13 and even worked as a butcher for period of time.

As Shakespeare got older, he fell in love with a woman by the name of Anne Hathaway, an orphan, with which he married in 1582 while she was pregnant with there first child, Susanna, that was born in 1583. Together with his twins, Hamnet and Judith that were born in February 22nd, 1585, he had 3 children. When it comes to work, William Shakespeare could probably be called a master writer and actor for he was a poet, actor and playwright. He was not one that wrote in Old English, but he wrote in Early Modern English. Some of his work comprises of 154 sonnets, 38 plays which include 14 comedies, 10 histories, 10 tragedies and 4 romances, two of his major poems are "Venus and Adonis" and "Rape of Lucrece" and one of his most famous plays was Hamlet, which was written in 1602. Other than writing, he was also a member and later part owner of the Lord Chamberlain's Men theatre, later called the King's Men. He was also invester in Globe Theatre in 1599, but not for long since it burned down during one of his plays. As he got older he continued to acquire his skills as an actor as well as a playwright until his death on 1616 in England.

William Shakespeare was an extremely talented man who seemed to have had a significant impact in the world since his plays were used many times to make various movies as well as books, for people to watch and read. His plays and poems gives people a better picture of how things use to be in the 16th and 17th Century when it comes to educational purposes, as well as making some interesting plays to watch and enjoy just for the fun of it.
