Abstract
This paper summarizes and analyzes "The Tempest" and looks at whether the analogy commonly used by critics, that the leading character in "The Tempest" can be compared to Shakespeare himself, deserves merit.
From the Paper
"?The Tempest? fills out the Shakespeare folio as the last production ?the bard? creates with his own witty craft. Numerous critics through the years liken the leading character Prospero to that of Shakespeare by making poignant, yet simple comparisons (1659). Shakespeare retires from playwriting and the theatre in real life, while the character Prospero relinquishes magic and an island. However, this general analogy only succeeds in being a basic argument such as all writing derives from the life of a writer. Innumerable and significant differences exist between the fictional and the factual that demand deeper analysis. With many complexities and nimble nuances the textual evidence implicates Prospero?s enchantments as being moral tools to accomplish virtuous deeds. Prospero renounces magic when he achieves a guarantee of overall good and simple virtuous actions themselves beget mystical moments."

Abstract
The subject of Jesus, his love and forgiveness has been interpreted in many different ways over the centuries and by scholars from various backgrounds. This paper addresses the various views and interpretations. It uses several sources, including the Bible.
From the Paper
"The fundamental statement of faith about Jesus Christ in the Book of Revelation, therefore, is revealed through one central image: the "slaughtered" Lamb is risen and "has conquered" sin and death and so is "worthy" to open the scroll and receive praise and worship. The sacrificial death of the Lamb set in motion God's plan of salvation and "ransomed" God's people and set them free from sin and death, once-and-for-all (5:9). Herein lies the significance of the lamb. Just as the blood of the paschal lamb signified the deliverance of the people of Israel from slavery and bondage in Egypt, so too the blood of the Lamb signifies the deliverance of God's people from slavery to sin and death."

Abstract
This paper presents a review of the scholarly and peer-reviewed literature concerning forgiveness and how forgiveness therapy may be affected by a counselor's religiosity. More specifically, the paper attempts to determine precisely how a counselor's own religiosity measures the degree to which he has forgiven an individual that has hurt or offended him, as well as whether a counselor's religiosity influences his willingness to encourage a client to forgive someone who has hurt or offended that client.
From the Paper
"The subject and benefits of forgiveness have also recently appeared in the popular media, which portrays forgiveness as a simplistic phenomenon; however, according to many psychological researchers, forgiveness tends to be an effortful yet beneficial process that takes time. In other words, according to forgiveness researchers, forgiveness may be a more difficult process than that displayed in the media. "

From the Paper
"Murray (2002) suggests that Hargrave (1994) provides a competent theoretical framework for using forgiveness in therapeutic environments, noting that forgiveness requires specific action "regarding the responsibility for the injustice" resulting in hurt; further forgiveness involves allowing the victim to discern that legitimate reasons exist for the offenders accepting responsibility for his or her wrongdoing and that promises to refrain from further injustice may serve a just cause. Forgiveness is best achieved under this premise when the offender agrees they are responsible for actions and when the victim no longer holds the offender responsible for their injustice; this approach allows "restoration of trust" which becomes a basis for reestablishing relationships among those involved (Murray, 188)."

Forgiveness in Christianity and Islam, 2007.
A comparative analysis of the approaches of Christianity and Islam to forgiveness.
3,188 words (approx. 12.8 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 92.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how there are substantial similarities between the approaches that Islam and Christianity take to the concept of forgiveness. It looks at how both religions stress God's forgiveness and how, when people become either Christians or Muslims, they are told that God forgives them any sins that they have committed prior to that point. The paper also discusses how the two religions provide a means for their followers to gain forgiveness from God and how they both emphasize the importance of people forgiving one's fellow humans when one has been wronged. It also shows how there is a disconnect between the preachings of both religions and the actions of their practitioners, which demeans both religions.
From the Paper
"Moreover, the concept of Christian forgiveness by God has two components. In the sixteenth century, William Tyndale invented the word atonement to describe the doctrine of Christ's sacrifice. Christ's sacrifice "accomplished both the remission of sin and reconciliation of man to God," which means that there were two elements of the holy forgiveness. The first element is that, by sacrificing his son, God redeemed the entire human race. The second element of that doctrine is that, by dying, Jesus provided a means of redemption for individual human beings. "

Abstract
This paper presents five studies that look into the concept of forgiveness and the positive outcomes of forgiveness therapy, in treating depression and anxiety. The paper concludes that patients who are able to forgive their transgressors are more likely to release old patterns of tension and self-pity, which may result in improved therapeutic outcomes in the short and long term.
From the Paper
"The researchers collected data within a 2 week period of time, completing an anonymous questionnaire that measured demographics, presenting problems trait and state forgiveness and participant's preferences to receive forgiveness interventions in therapy. Symptoms improvement was also measured in patients with troubling symptoms. The results of the stud suggest that explicitly discussing the subject of forgiveness in therapy sessions often results in better outcomes for patients participating in therapy and improvement in general outcomes for symptoms related to depression, anxiety or similar problems. The researchers suggest the results of the study have multiple implications for other therapists, suggesting that promoting forgiveness in therapy may be an effective tool for reducing anger and un forgiveness in patients and for promoting clients ability to heal."

Kristeva makes many assertions that are strikingly similar to views explored in Bryce Courtenay's 'The Power of One.' Specifically, the character of Peekay uses inner dialogue to express his attitudes on forgiveness, attitudes that coincide with the views Kristeva gives on how and why forgiveness is necessary."

Process of Forgiveness, 2003.
A new critical reading of Lucille Clifton's "Forgiving My Father".

Abstract
This paper reveals how this work contains oppositions and ambiguities, but the unity is exposed. The underlying theme is revealed: The speaker struggles with her internal conflict. Should she forgive her deceased father for his lack of love? She realizes that it is too late.
From the Paper
"In Lucille Clifton?s poem, ?forgiving my father?, the speaker focuses on the debt that her deceased father owes to her and her mother, in an attempt to undergo a process of forgiveness. The debt owed is not physical, but emotional, as a monetary debt is used to symbolize a lack of love and affection. Although the title of the poem indicates that the speaker has forgiven her father, much of the text reveals through its metaphors, that the daughter has resentment and anger toward him. Near the end of the poem, these oppositions actually balance the speaker?s feelings towards her father, in that she realizes that it is too late to forgive or blame, thus resolving her internal conflict."

Abstract
The relationships between men and women in Shakespeare's "King Lear", John Milton's "Paradise Lost" and James Joyce's "Ulysses" all reflect certain power structures in the context of gender. But they also reveal the main ingredients of the human condition, as love and forgiveness also play vital roles. To be sure, these realities are about power, but they entail human dynamics as well, which include every aspect of male-female relationships. In examining each text, we begin to understand love and forgiveness are very powerful themes in each realm. There is a common theme of a spiritual journey for each man and woman.

Abstract
The paper gives a definition on the romance genre and then explains how and why Shakespeare's "The Tempest", fits this genre. It discusses the main theme of the play, that of forgiveness. The paper shows that "The Tempest" illustrates the importance and value of forgiveness and expands on Shakespeare's methods for making this point are linked closely to his use of the romance genre.
From the Paper
"Prospero is also an important character in terms of understanding the need for forgiveness, with this enhanced because of the use of the romance genre. Prospero acts as the ultimate example of someone who has achieved forgiveness. This is seen by the way that he does not choose to harm Antonio, Alonso, or Sebastian, despite the wrongs they have done to him. Instead, he chooses to make them realize their errors and repent. Prospero's role as the ultimate example of forgiveness occurs because his power on the island makes it clear that he could choose to kill or punish if he chose to. The fact that he does not choose to shows that his goal is not really to seek revenge. Instead, his goal is to force reconciliation. This makes it clear that the real solution to being wronged is not to seek revenge for those actions, since doing so would only lead to more wrongs."
