Answer:

a. Both works show a marriage denied; only Shakespeare offers background.

Explanation:

Ovid's " Pyramus and Thisbe" and William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" both tells the story of two star crossed lovers who had to have a fatal ending due to their complicated love stories. While both stories seem to have the exact same play and theme and tone, one thing that is evidently missing from the excerpts provided in the question is that while Shakespeare provides the background of the story, telling the history of the families of two characters Romeo and Juliet, Ovid's excerpt ,misses this detail. Both shows a marriage denied, only Shakespeare offers the background for why the union was refused.

<span>Before 1789, the U.S. had been ruled by the Articles of Confederation (1781) in fear of govt. abusing power (like British rule). In 1787, it was obvious that they needed a perfect Union and so, while protecting the independence of states, the Articles of Confederation didn't describe the powers of a federal chief executive nor a judicial system. The creation of our Constitution and present form of government was informed by these and other considerations that arose during the years of the Confederation.</span>
