I think that Shakespeare's message about ambition seems to be that too much ambition can be a bad thing. I think he thinks that ambition overall is good and is a good thing for a person to have but if someone has an excess amount of this ambition it can lead to bad things instead of good ones I think by the end of the play something bad will happen, considering he is foreshadowing it now.
I remember that William Shakespeare writes plays. Many of his works are themed on tragedy and comedy. He wrote them a long time ago in the 1500's and the language he uses goes along with that, using phrases that we no longer use today because of how language has changed. Shakespeare is very well known and a very good writer and incorporates a lot of different things into his writing which is why we read Shakespeare so much in high school. Last year it was kind of difficult reading Shakespeare because some of the ways they said things back then have changed so it sounded different and it was hard to translate it to how we would say it today. The only part of Shakespeare that I enjoyed was the romance in Romeo and Juliet, although i did not necessarily enjoy the style of writing.
The gallery walk was very eye opening, what i saw was similar to what I had thought about the themes in Lord of the Flies. I did not have enough time to look at very many projects but the ones that I did see had strong ideas about how being away from a normal society, and similar to my project,having a thirst for power can lead people to do things that are wrong. How being away from normalcy can change people and let out their "inner beast". I hadn't really thought about comparing Jack and Hitler's actual actions, I considered their personalities and how they both wanted power, but i never thought about comparing the deaths that the other project I looked at did. I thought this project overall was very good and a great learning experience.
