Answer:
A writer can use genre conventions to great effect by the inclusion of such conventions at strategic times in the plot when there is a climax or anti climax.
Explanation:
Some genre conventions can be used to maximize effect during strategic moments in a plot. Use of characterizations, plotlines, setting, props, etc can be used for effect during conflict resolution and denouement.
In a play, the character of a protagonist or antagonist can be used in climax to achieve great effect. For example, an antagonist can suddenly be portrayed to have a sudden change of ideology and do a certain thing that will make him capture the attention and sympathy of the audience.
The antagonist may have been portrayed as a heartless criminal who destroys all that stands in his way, but at the climax of the drama, his character can be portrayed to help an old woman cross a busy road, or beat up bullies that ganged up against a random child or even help the protagonist in a very unexpected manner.
This sudden change in the characterization of the antagonist, coupled with the mood of the audience in a setting has used the genre conventions to create effect.
Archimedes, who does not seem to be interested in what is going on, on the other side, wants to be playful. The idea of leaving/disowning was being explained Marcus in this stage of the plot.
Explanation:
Siege of Syracuse led to loss of independence of Greek cities in Italy and Sicily. Archimedes was on of the defenders of Syracuse, who tried to help with certain calculations and quotations that were needed for war against Romans.
In this siege, Archimedes worked along with the King who requested him to calculate few specific aspects that can lead to a strategy of attack against Romans. After a while, when Romans continuously proved victorious in every move they faced, Syracuse's King had to surrender.
Meanwhile, Marcus(one of the defenders) instructs every one to disembark. He explains the reason clearly that their loss is evident now. Archimedes who is still involved playing mathematical games and calculations, Marcus explains to him that disembarking is the only way left for them to survive.
Ignoring this, Archimedes continues his playful games. The disembarking, later proves to be true as Archimedes dies in the war.
