<span>1.
</span>The main argument in this essay is that if the
audience does not accept the villain the poet (specifically Shakespeare here) writes,
then Shakespeare will become the villain of his own play.
<span>2.
</span>In lines 25-44 the author is supporting the
fact that the poet is completely at the mercy of his audience. Sometimes the
reception by the audience has nothing to do with the play itself, it might be
differences from audience to audience based on who is there and how they are
feeling on that particular night.

3. Shakespeare cannot give up revenge because it is what the audience wants.
The author says that “tragedy is revenge”. If he gives up revenge, he is giving
up his audience and therefore his entire basis of work. </span>
<span>
4. The author presents this information directly from the text because the
structure of the lines is as important as what they are saying. Hamlet presents
the images of his father and his uncle next to each other, and the meter of the
lines represents that back and forth of comparison by mirroring each other. “This
was your husband/Here is your husband”. The repetition with slight changes in
description show the contrast better than a summary could. </span>
<span>
5. The author says this is a “catchy example” because Hamlet needs to adopt the
same sense of grand military action towards Claudius for his revenge as Fortinbras
does for what seems like nothing. Hamlet needs, like Fortinbras, to be willing
to throw away everything for “an eggshell”. </span>
<span>
6. Laertes is like the actor that played Hecuba because he is able to turn on
his tears and emotions even if it contradicts what he is feeling inside. This similarity
suggests that Laertes cares more about the show of things, in the same way he
seems to care more about the ceremony surrounding Ophelia’s burial than her death
itself, than the things themselves. It shows that he is all for show rather
than sincerity. </span>
<span>
7. These lines relate to the author’s argument because it reinforces the idea
that the audience is actually in control of the play. It shows examples of
lines that represent the height of the trauma and tragedy, so that the audience
knows the ending is near. </span>
<span>
8. Gertrude refers to Hamlet’s outburst as “madness” and he refers to his own
outburst as “towering passion.” The differences here are in who the audience
chooses to believe. If the audience follows Gertrude’s lead by thinking he is
mad, they will receive the ending differently than if they trust Hamlet himself
that his outbursts are an outpouring of passion. </span>
a story. That is my best guess on this. Hope this helps you!
Answer:
Explanation:
Omit unnecessary words and phrases: excessive adverbs and adjectives detract from the formality of writing, as do phrases such as "you know", and "like" and "well" at the start of sentences, or during pauses in the sentence's rhythm. 4.
Answer:
The one way mirror is a mirror for one and a window for the other side.
Explanation:
In <em>Through the looking glass</em> by the Washington Post, the author uses the one way mirror to describe the peculiar relation between the US and Canada.
For most Americans, i.e. United States citizens, Canada is an empty screen, for we either don´t know much of it or we are not interested. Or a mixture of both. Therefore the Americans are on the mirror side. We look at ourselves and can only imagine what is behind the mirror.
For the Canadians the mirror is a window that clearly shows how much the other side has influenced (economically, culturally) them. Of course the worldpower factor is decisive in the one way mirror comparison: The US, as the worldpower, cannot be bothered by taking neighbouring countries all too serious; Canada, on the other side, is submitted to play the small little brother that follows suit with everything big brother does.
