What is the strangest thing in romeo and juliet you have ever read

History

Kruka [31]3 years ago

<span>There are actually quite a few similarities between the two. Both couples were separated by family politics, but were able to get around them somehow (the crack in the wall for Pyramus and Thisbe; the masquerade and subsequent balcony scene for Romeo and Juliet) . They both agreed to marry in spite of their parents' disapproval, and both female leads attempted to contrive some way to be together with their lover in spite of their circumstances (Thisbe was scared away by a lioness with jaws dripping blood, and she left her shawl behind which the lioness chewed up; Juliet put herself into a death-like sleep in the hopes that she would escape her own impeding arranged marriage). However, everything went awry when the male leads thought that their beloved had been lost to them forever (Pyramus saw the shawl, and stabbed himself with this sword; Romeo saw Juliet in her deathlike sleep, and drank poison). The suicide of the male leads was soon after imitated by their female counterparts (Thisbe stabbed herself with Pyramus' sword; Juliet stabbed herself with Romeo's dagger). </span>

<span>In plot and, to a certain extent, theme, there really isn't much difference between the story of Pyramus and Thisbe and Romeo and Juliet - it is even possible to assume that Shakespeare derived inspiration for Romeo and Juliet from the story of Pyramus and Thisbe (Pyramus and Thisbe is a story of Roman origins). Shakespeare only added more characters to the story, emphasized the family rivalries, and set his story in Verona.</span>

Answer: C. Spurred a period of economic growth and prosperity

Explanation:

The businesses were happy in the 1920s and this made them produce more and drive the economy forward thereby leading to prosperity unlike anything ever seen before.

They were happy because the government was pro-business which meant that they interfered little in the affairs of businesses such that businesses were free to chase profits how they liked. Higher tariffs on foreign goods meant that domestic producers could sell at higher prices and make a profit.

satela [25.4K]

The primary aims of the League of Nations:   Maintain the peace process and prevent future wars.

Details:

An organization such as the League of Nations was the signature idea of US President Woodrow Wilson.  He had laid out 14 Points for establishing and maintaining world peace following the Great War (World War I).  Point #14 was the establishment of an international peacekeeping association. The Treaty of Versailles adopted that idea, and the League of Nations was established in 1920.  [Notably, the United States never joined the League, because the US Senate did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles.]

The League of Nations had set out clear goals for what it intended to do. The main aims of the League were disarmament across nations, preventing war through collective security of the international community, settling disputes between countries through negotiation, and improving welfare of people around the globe.  But it proved unable to meet those goals.  The United Nations, formed after World War II, has similar goals, and has been more effective in its efforts -- though there are still plenty of people who criticize the UN's effectiveness.
