Answer:
Let's take one of the most influential and popular novels of the 21st century - George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire". This work is all the more appropriate to showcase the influence of Greek, Senecan and Elizabethan tragedies since the series have been turned into a critically acclaimed TV show.
Explanation:
These epic fantasy novels deal with a noble family, which is one of the prerequisites of all three types of tragedy we are dealing with here. Furthermore, many of the protagonists from the Stark family are the so-called "flawed heroes" - well-intended and principled people who often end up stranded (or dead) because of their terrible mistakes or oversights.
<u>One notable example of a tragic hero is the head of the family, Eddard Stark.</u> He is an honorable man who ends up betrayed and executed because he took part in the dangerous game of thrones yet refused to play by the dirty rules that would help him save his head and family. In a way, he would have his cake and eat it, which is of course impossible. Ultimately, his great pride and self-righteousness border on <u>hubris</u>, leading him to think that his perspective is the only right one.
There is also <u>Arya's complex and elaborate revenge</u> that's been carefully plotted throughout multiple volumes of the work. Having survived all the family turmoil, she embarks on a personal journey that will be anything but your conventional coming-of-age story. She will learn to fight, survive, and kill her enemies with great skill and imagination. Her bloodthirstiness is a true Senecan feature.
On the other hand, there are <u>Bran's prophetic dreams</u> about the Three-Eyed Raven. Through them, he gradually learns who he really is and how he can overcome his physical disability. These dreams are not just about his own predicament though. They also provide him with an insight into the terrible challenge the whole humanity is facing. Of course, these dreams are not using plain language but symbols and metaphors - just like the Delphi oracle in Greek tragedies.
Answer:
Macbeth's porter scene functions as a comic relief after King Duncan is killed. The troll-like gatekeeper makes the audience or reader laugh with his drunken banter, and relieves the tension of the killing in the prior scene. He casts light on Macbeth's internal torment.

Answer:
Explanation:
It was a fine day when I decided to go for hunting with my father so I went to convince him but when i entered in his room, I saw that he was sleeping. Then I had to go back to the parlor and wait him out. About an hour later, he was up as I saw him walking in the veranda. I walked up to him greeted and asked if I could go hunting with him.
Surprisingly, he agreed, saying he'd wanted to put it to me few weeks back but he didn't want it to seem as though he were coercing me. We took breakfast and set out to the woods behind our house and he taught me how to handle a gun. Of course I was shaking since I'd always steered clear of it. But after a few words, I did take the gun and hold it. He taught me to shoot also, but perhaps, I was wrong with my intuition on wanting to learn to hunt. I'd made only one shot and I was shivering. He had to take me back to the house that morning.
My first time outing was a disaster, but he told me not to worry about it that it happens. I haven't made up my mind if I'd go for another trial yet.
