<u>Answer:</u>
In Frankenstein, the two ideas symbolized by Prometheus interact build on one other as R.W. believes firmly in his ability to achieve his goals, but he is challenged by the natural world he seeks to conquer.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Frankenstein is mostly addressed as the Modern Prometheus because he stole something from God which has not been intended to be recognised to humans, and with scientific method and advanced technology he redefined his concept. He like Prometheus and mankind were punished for their actions.
But the difference between the punishments were that Frankenstein was destined to alienation mentally, and the deities bound Prometheus. The difference highlights another point that in ancient times, the Gods controlled everything and were responsible for everything that happened.
But in modern terms, man is in control of his actions and its consequences. Furthermore, the light imagery used as metaphors for understanding such as the "thunder" that Frankenstein had seen in the oak tree account, which embodied motivation and devastation is why Frankenstein is called a Modern Prometheus.
Answer:
This soliloquy in act III scene I is one of the most famous speeches in all of Shakespeare's works: "to be, or not to be? That is the question."
The words in this speech inticate that Hamlet is considering death as a very positive option specially because of everything that he is going through. Moreover, he talks about how meaningless life can be.
Aside from that, throughout these words we can see how Hamlet constantly hesitates and overthinks his actions, this issue is present all throughout the play.
The first line sets the topic of this speech which is connected with whether it is worth living or not. Is it worth all the suffering that we go through in life?
The following seven lines consider death to be like sleeping ( and dreaming) and therefore it becomes a very interesting option, although it is still very uncertain everything that happens around death. "To sleep - perchance to dream- ay...there's the rub" Hamlet says. So what he is saying is, what if dying is the same as sleeping? if so, then we have the chance to dream, but the answer is unknown, so there's the problem, we don't know for sure.
The last three lines of this speech reflect upon the fact that life is a torture because of this uncertainty that we have regarding what happens after life.
