Which thematic statement is best demonstrated by the events of Shakespeare's The Tempest?

English
1 answer:
Yuri [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:  B) Even in a new place with new people, travelers never escape their old problems.

Explanation:

<em>The Tempest</em> tells a story about Prospero, a magician who was utterly betrayed by his brother and forced to flee his dukedom. Caught in a tempest, he arrives on an enchanted island together with his daughter, Miranda.

The characters in the play have multiple times found themselves in a situation where they could behave in disagreement with their social status. However, they continue to act in accordance with their societal roles. The most obvious example of this is Prospero himself, who is determined to recover his title, although he now rules the entire island and has a servant (Ariel) and a slave (Caliban). Instead of being pleased with this situation, he plots a revenge to regain his title, because this is how it works in his society.

In addition, Miranda and Ferdinand are not intimate even when there is nobody around them, because they are used to controlling their urges. Both Caliban and Stephano and Trinculo do not reach freedom as they are convinced by the society that they belong to a lower class.

In the myth that bears his name, Prometheus steals the ability to make  fire from Zeus, the king of the gods, and gives it to humanity. For his  crime, Prometheus is punished for eternity.  In Ernest Hemingway's novel The Old Man and the Sea, a fisherman  struggles for several days to reel in an enormous fish. When he finally

succeeds, sharks eat the fish before the fisherman is able to get it

back to shore.

Which motive is present in both a myth and the modern story?

A. Stealing from the gods

B. Punishment for great deeds

C. The importance of courage

D. Turning against nature

The answer to this question is B. Punishment for great deeds

Explanation:

In both "Prometheus" and " The Old man and the Sea" the main character struggles to achieve a specific purpose or deed. In the case of the myth, the character deed is to steal the ability to make fire; while in the novel the deed is to catch a big fish. Moreover, each of these deeds is followed by a punishment because both Prometheus and the fisherman are penalized after their deed, this includes punishment for eternity in the case of Prometheus and loss of the fish in the case of the fisherman. According to this, the option that describes a common motif (repeated symbol or idea) is B.
