what mood is created in this excerpt from dracula by bram stoker? all at once the wolves began to howl as though the moonlight h

ad had some peculiar effect on them. the horses jumped about and reared, and looked helplessly round with eyes that rolled in a way painful to see; but the living ring of terror encompassed them on every side; and they had perforce to remain within it. i called to the coachman to come, for it seemed to me that our only chance was to try to break out through the ring and to aid his approach. i shouted and beat the side of the calèche, hoping by the noise to scare the wolves from that side, so as to give him a chance of reaching the trap. how he came there, i know not, but i heard his voice raised in a tone of imperious command, and looking towards the sound, saw him stand in the roadway. as he swept his long arms, as though brushing aside some impalpable obstacle, the wolves fell back and back further still. just then a heavy cloud passed across the face of the moon, so that we were again in darkness. when i could see again the driver was climbing into the calèche, and the wolves had disappeared. this was all so strange and uncanny that a dreadful fear came upon me, and i was afraid to speak or move. the time seemed interminable as we swept on our way, now in almost complete darkness, for the rolling clouds obscured the moon. we kept on ascending, with occasional periods of quick descent, but in the main always ascending. suddenly, i became conscious of the fact that the driver was in the act of pulling up the horses in the courtyard of a vast ruined castle, from whose tall black windows came no ray of light, and whose broken battlements showed a jagged line against the sky. suspense frustration optimism terror

I'd say that this excerpt shows either terror or suspense.
It is definitely not optimism, since the scene is quite dark and terrifying, and nobody seems frustrated either.
Suspense means that we don't know what is going to happen next, so we are also scared, so it could be suspense or terror.
I'm sorry, I'm not completely sure.

Stella [2.4K]

Leartes and Fortinbras share the same fate as Hamlet, the three of them lost their fathers in unfortunate circumstances. They feel the same kind of grieve of losing a loved one. But each reacts, differently. Their behaviour play a close related trait towards advice and duty, action versus inaction and sanity versus madness. Hamlet and Leartes want to get revenge, while the first is looking forward is getting the throne back and considers the consequences of his actions. Leartes, on the other hand, is blinded by his feelings (madness) and takes belligerent actions without thinking on the consequences.

Hamlet and Fortinbras, want to take revenge both. Whereas Hamlet only seeks to get the throne back and keeps on devating on how and when to take action, Fortinbras wants to clean his family's name and fights in an orderly fashion, with the use of an army.

after reynaldo leaves polonius's room, ophelia enters distraught. she tells her father that hamlet had appeared before her in a
Vladimir79 [104]

Polonius thinks that Hamlet is mad because Ophelia is ignoring him and Hamlet is madly in love with her.

The above scene is taken from Hamlet Act 2 written by William Shakespeare. This scene starts with Reynaldo, a spy sent by Polonius, who travels to France to keep a watch on Laertes. As soon as Ophelia walks in, she informs Polonius that Hamlet stormed into her room, holding her wrists, and stared crazily into her eyes. She continues by saying that she has severed all ties with Hamlet. Polonius decides to meet with the king to devise a method to eavesdrop on Hamlet speaking to Ophelia since he is convinced that Hamlet is madly in love with her and that Ophelia's rejection is what put him in this situation. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two of Hamlet's classmates from high school, have been invited by Gertrude to investigate the origin of his insanity. Hamlet avoids their queries because he is wary of them.

Here madness has two meanings, that is one immediately thinks of a lunatic in an asylum who is unable to understand reality when it is used frequently in phrases to suggest unreasonable insanity.

A composition on child upbringing​
prohojiy [21]

Parents who are strong role models(authoritative parents) for their children often raise them to become capable, content adults. Permissive parenting is typically associated with children who perform poorly on happiness and self-control tests.

Authoritative democratic parents exhibit high demands and high responses because, in addition to holding their kids to high standards and expecting them to work hard and accomplish high goals, they also give them support and are receptive to their needs. Democratic parents with authority also permit their kids to have some degree of autonomy and independence.

The child's strengths, capacity for listening to his needs, and sense of self-worth are the initial values. Children can learn self-love through providing constant, altruistic support, receiving praise, and receiving hugs. Respecting your child's emotions will help them communicate with you.
