Browning's most popular "My Last Duchess" appeared first in Dramatic lyrics in 1842. It is the finest examples of dramatic monologue. An ironic self-portrait of royalty is painted. The word spoken is to criticize the last duchess. The Duke of Ferrara is the only speaker and the emissary of a count is the listener. The listener is silent during the entire poem and asks about the smile of the last duchess in the portrait offstage. The listener is trying to negotiate the marriage between the duke and the count's daughter.

Shelia E. is a singer and plays the drums. Which error is made in the above sentence? A. coordinating excessively B. lacking par
viva [34]

Answer:

B. lacking parallelism

Explanation:

The original sentence contains a predicate nominative (<em>singer</em>) and an action verb (<em>plays</em>), which shows lack of parallelism.

The best way to fix the error would be to use a parallel structure, which is the repetition of a certain grammatical form within a sentence:

"Shelia E. <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> the drums."  

Now the sentence uses two action verbs <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> in the present tense, and this is an example of parallelism.

1. Explain Mary Shelley’s use of a motif in Frankenstein and provide at least two examples of this motif from the text.

1. Explain Mary Shelley’s use of a motif in Frankenstein and provide at least two examples of this motif from the text.

 Motifs are recurring structures, contrasts, or literary devices that can help to develop and inform the text’s major themes. 
Example 1: Passive Women Frankenstein is strikingly devoid of strong female characters. The novel is littered with passive women who suffer calmly and then expire: Caroline Beaufort is a self-sacrificing mother who dies taking care of her adopted daughter.

Example 2: Abortion 
<span>The motif of abortion recurs as both Victor and the monster express their sense of the monster’s hideousness. About first seeing his creation, Victor says: “When I thought of him, I gnashed my teeth, my eyes became inflamed, and I ardently wished to extinguish that life which I had so thoughtlessly made.” The monster feels a similar disgust for himself: “I, the miserable and the abandoned, am an abortion, to be spurned at, and kicked, and trampled on.”
</span>

2. What does Frankenstein suggest about duality in life? What examples from the text can you give that relate to this theme?

<span>The Creature's duality is his ability to show love and to yearn for people who love him (as in his mountain retreat, where he fell in love with the family he helped), and his humanity. The flip side of that is his hatred for who he is and his desire to destroy his creator, Dr Victor Frankenstein when he wouldn't make another monster for his companionship. </span>
