7 0

<span>When he states "get thee to a nunnery" to Ophelia, he is expressing pent-up anger towards his mother, who he feels has been unfaithful and incestuous when she married his uncle. At the beginning of the play itself, we see a brooding Hamlet who seems almost more upset by his mother's marriage than by his father's death.</span>

What tenets of realism are evident in Zitkala-Sa's “The School Days of an Indian Girl”?

Answer: I believe that the tenets of realism that are evident in Zitkala-Sa's “The School Days of an Indian Girl” are the struggles that Native Americans had to go through to "fit in" with the culture of the Europeans. At some point she revolts against at first, but begins to assimilate. Even after she assimilates herself she begins to find herself not belonging anywhere.

How does Zitkala-Sa's realistic representation of her experiences affect readers?

Answer: I believe that the way that Zitkala-Sa's realistic representation of her experiences affect the readers is in a way that they could empathize with the struggles that she had to go through because of the fact that her people's territory was completely overrun.

I hope it helps, Regards.
