To properly understand what the speaker is stating
'Persistant' should end with '...ent'.
I feel like agree with (B) much more because in the question it states that the quote has to show the "cultural complexity" of the genre meaning that its not as static as it was before as mentioned in question A. , but how it evolved over-time thus becoming more complex : branching out into different ideas of race and class .
Answer:
The speech in the lines 144-154 i Act IV scene i presents a different quality in the character of Macbeth. He is shown as a completely different person, ready to do anything to get his power, even to the extent of killing innocent people.
This speech provides a motive for Macduff to attack Macbeth and avenge the death of his household.
Explanation:
In Act IV scene i of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth", Macbeth is seen in conversation with the witches and then later on, he was told by Lennox that Macduff has fled to England. This made him angry and was the very scene where he decided to go through with whatever he decided, instead of waiting for an opportune time.
In the lines between 114 to 154, Macbeth declares that he will raid Macduff's place and kill everyone. This is in stark contrast to his previous personality, where he had to be coaxed and pressured on by his wife to do anything. He also is deviating from his usual murdering of those who are an obstacle to his attaining the throne. Rather, he is now fine with killing innocent people too.
This speech of Macbeth moves the plot forward with his act of actually killing everyone in Macduff's household. It provides a motive for Macduff to confront and avenge his family from <em>"this fiend of Scotland"</em>.
Answer:
A. The fickle nature of justice and the desire for control over others.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's "The Tempest" revolves around the story of Prospero and his daughter 'exiled' to an island and forcibly removed from his dukedom. The story delves into the themes of power dynamics, the struggle for authority, love, enslavement, and class structure.
After his dukedom was taken by his brother, Prospero exhibited the need to have power over others by enslaving Caliban and Ariel through manipulation, deception, and charm. This shows how human is so desirous of having some form of control over others and the fickleness of what is just.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
