Answer:

The option that contains the objective summary of "forgiveness triumphs" theme is:

B. The scene where Laertes asks forgiveness helps demonstrate that forgiveness can be more powerful than revenge.

Explanation:

Exchange forgiveness with me, noble Hamlet:

Mine and my father's death come not upon thee,

Nor thine on me! [Dies.]

Hamlet: Heaven make thee free of it! I follow thee.

I am dead, Horatio.

-Hamlet,William Shakespeare

Laertes seeks revenge for his father's and sister's deaths, for which he blames Hamlet. However, once they are both poisoned and about to die, Laertes realizes the futility of revenge. Death conquers all. Killing someone only brings more tragedy and suffering onto oneself and others. That is why Laertes asks Hamlet to "exchange forgiveness" with him: so that they can both be free from the deadly ropes of revenge and resentment.

The meaning of the saying Actions speak louder than words? And does the saying talk about proving someone wrong or not?

Inga [223]

Actions speak louder than words means talking about something isn't going to make it better, you should take action so it helps solve the problem. I wouldn't say it talks about proving anything wrong based on the definition.

What does the character Dr.Faustus suggest about the idea of the Renaissance Man???

sattari [20]

So, Dr. Faustus is an embodiment of curiosity gone wild. His blase attitude towards humanistic science is, however, some kind of a scientific decadence: he casts away philosophy and law, to embrace magic, as a relic of medieval obsession over mysticism. In this regard, he is a subversion of the Renaissance Man. He thinks he has already learned all there was to learn about this world, so now he yearns for another kind of knowledge - esoteric, otherworldly, knowledge that isn't exactly a knowledge because you don't have to study long and hard for it, you just have to sell your soul to Lucifer.

But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

as supportive and nonjudgmenta

Explanation:

The hints we get form the text are " approved tolerance for others", and "inclined to help rather than to reprove". From this, we can assume he's not bitter and unforgiving. We don't have any textual evidence for cheerful, independent, or adventurous. So we can assume that he's as supportive and nonjudgmental.
