English

Katena32 [7]1 year ago

In the Hamlet skull scene, Yorick's skull is held by Hamlet while he muses on his own vanity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Vanity of life:

The audience is reminded of the futility of human life by Yorick's skull. The futility of Yorick the court jester's life is portrayed by Hamlet holding the skull in his hand. He once astounded the court with his brilliance, but today he lies in a lone graveyard beside those who lack his intellectual prowess. Is it necessary to put more effort into one's life if it only results in death?

The symbolism of life and death:

It is not novel to discuss Yorick's skull's symbolic value. Shakespeare employed such dramatic techniques to extract the text's symbolic meaning. Similar to the Macbeth dagger and the Hamlet skull. In the Hamlet skull scene, Yorick's skull represents death, the final destination of life. The skull that Hamlet is carrying alludes to the contrast between life and death. Hamlet represents life, and the skull in his hand represents death. Only a hand's width separates them!

In at least 250 words, explain how Oedipus’s character influences the events of the plot of Oedipus The King
Fittoniya [83]

<u>Oedipus’s character influences the events of the plot of Oedipus The King:</u>

Oedipus is the hero of both Oedipus the King and Oedipus at Colonus. Theseus King of Athens. He goes about as Oedipus' partner by securing him in Colonus and witnesses his demise. Creon ruler of Thebes, brother by marriage of Oedipus.

In Oedipus Rex, Creon is a sibling of sovereign Jocasta, the spouse of King Laius just as Oedipus. Laius, a past lord of Thebes, had given the standard to Creon while he went to counsel the prophet at Delphi. During Laius' nonappearance, the Sphinx came to Thebes.

To maintain a strategic distance from the forecast of a prophet that he will slaughter his dad and wed his mom, Oedipus goes in deliberate outcast to Thebes. By and large, Oedipus is depicted as a deplorable character, who meant well yet couldn't get away from his destiny.

His characterizing characteristics are his assurance, outrage, want for truth, blame, and trustworthiness. Genuinely, Oedipus thinks about his new realm and its kin. He meets straightforwardly with his subjects and vows to execute the man who has caused the plague.

PLLZZZZ CAN SOMEONE WRITE THIS FOR MEEEE !! I BEG UUU Answer the questions below according to the instructions given. Please not
lina2011 [118]

QUESTION ONE: The most single and memorable day in my life occurred one week ago. I was on my way home and went across this young women, she had the most peaceful face I had ever seen.  

It was quite late that night on Central station, I was going back home coming back from Cleveland. Engrossed in my thoughts, she approached and made me realized that I had dropped a silk handkerchief. At that moment I came back to reality, looked at it and told her it wasn't mine. She said I was the only stylish men among the station that's why she was sure it was mine. I felt flattered and started talking to her. We talked for a few minutes and we realized we lived close. She lived on Amsterdam and 22nd St.  That´s I offer her a ride on my cab.e   When we arrived we walked a few blocks, I told her my building, suddenly the door was opened and all my family and friends came through the door singing happy birthday to me. That girl was my cousin from San Diego that have not seen since I was a kid and charmed me to take me home to the party.  

QUESTION TWO:

Claim for incorrect charge of account commission

To whom it May concern:

On this written I wish to express my profound dissatisfaction with the service provided. Yesterday morning I reviewed my bank statements and I realized that I had been charged for the account commission service they told me they would not charge me for six months. On December 26 th I received an email from you informing me about the promotion from which the cost of my banking package would subsidized for 6 months. And the first month after that I already notice the cost in my account. I consider it a great lack of respect because it not only damages me financially but also I must invest a large part of my time in making the claim: first by telephone and now in writing this letter (as I have been informed by your employees, you need this writting for the claim to be effective). I hope to perceive quickly on my bank account the amount charged and that you can consider as well the compensation of the extra expenses that this inconvenience caused.

I am looking forward to your response,

Cordially,

XXXXX
