The familiar expression that Nick Carraway notices that Gatsby frequently uses is "old sport".  Gatsby uses the phrase to address male characters. In order to understand its meaning it should be taken into account that it is a term of endearment used in the twentieth century. It expresses the affection that Gatsby felt towards Nick.

It could be said that the use of this term shows Gatsby true self. He wants to be taken as a man who comes from old money backgrounds, he does not want the world to see him as a new rich. Perhaps, by using this language he can hide his real personality as well.

Read Stephen Crane's "Do Not Weep, Maiden, for War Is Kind." How does the free–verse form contribute to the theme of this poem?
Monica [59]

Answer:

Free-Verse poem contributes to the theme of the poem as:

Option C: The absence of rhyme and meter brings out the meaningless nature of war that destroys lives and causes grief to innocent people.

Explanation:

The mentioned poem by 'Stephen Crane' highlights the brutality of war. It portrays the pain of separation by the the loved ones of the soldiers who die in the war.

He doesn't focus on the heroism of the soldiers instead talks about the psychological  suffering of the people because of war.

Free verse poem is the one which doesn't have a specific rhyme and meter. It can have breaks in the stanzas. Absence of rhyme and meter highlight how meaningless a war which only destroys lives and brings sadness all over. Thus, free verse poem contributes to the theme of the poem.

Which statement best explains why Shakespeare alludes to the story of Pyrrhus and Priam throughout Act II, Scene ii of Hamlet?
irina [24]

Hi!


The statement that best explains this is:

The allusion highlights ideas that relate to the murder of King Hamlet.


We see that in the myth of the Trojan War, Pyrrhus eventually kills Priam (the King of Troy). Pyrrhus was elated to have done this deed, and that to with Priam's wife, Hecuba, beholding the sight. Priam had caused the war that had eventually resulted in he death of Pyrrhus's father, Achilles, and so by killing him, Pyrrhus was successful in avenging his father.

The reason Hamlet alludes as this particular story is to establish that his motive is similar to that of Pyrrhus's in that Hamlet seeks to avenge the death of his father by killing the King, Claudius, in the presence of his own mother, and Claudius's wife, Gertrude.


So just to be clear, the hints at the following roles:

Hamlet as Pyrrhus

Claudius as Priam

Gertrude as Hecuba
