Which description accurately characterizes Romeo, based on his behavior in Act II, Scene 2 (the “balcony scene”)?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Romeo is characterized by his succumbing to his impulses. His behavior in Juliet's balcony is a reflection of his reckless personality. The enmity between the Capulets and the Montagues is well known and the fact that his own life is in risk appears to be of little importance for the young lover. He even states that his life "were better ended by their hate" than living without her love. Romeo's diction is an indication of his being passionate and impulsive.

Explain how parris's problems with his congregation help to fan the belief that witches are present in Salem
iogann1982 [59]
<span>Parris is a weak, paranoid and suspicious demagogue, Parris instigates the witchcraft panic when he finds his daughter and niece dancing in the woods with several other girls. Parris is continually beset with fears that others conspire against him. Parris knows the truth that Abigail is lying about the dancing and the witchcraft, but perpetuates the deception because it is in his own self interest. Parris fears any defense against the charges of witchcraft as an attack upon the court and a personal attack on him. As a pastor, his primary concern is personal aggrandizement - he strives for monetary compensation, including the deed to the preacher's house and expensive candlesticks.</span>
