The Antique
My first title that i have chosen is "The Antique", but not just because in the script both the characters Nell and Antony are looking for a wedding pressent in and antique, which is when they come across the wardrobe for the first time, but because I thought that the scene its self is like an antique, its beautiful, old and also a very delicute, I think that its beautiful because it ends at a point where the audience are given the choice to decide what happens,whether both character live happily ever after or whether Antony does infact die. I think that that era that it is set in, also makes the characters very delicute as they are both very young, naive and in a time where you dont know whether your going to live the rest of your life. The difinition of anique is "An antique (Latin: antiquus; "old", "ancient") is an old collectable item. It is collected or desirable because of its age, beauty, rarity, condition, utility, personal emotional connection, and/or other unique features. It is an object that represents a previous era or time period in human society." And this is what the scene is summed up in my mind, and onething that stands out to me from the definition is personal emotional connection, the personal emotional connection stands out through out the whole play, as I belive that each character has a emtional connection with the wardrobe as if it is a part of each character.
