The statements that apply about William Shakespeare’s sonnets are:

1. It consists of three quatrains and a couplet unlike the Italian division of an octave and a sestet. The meter is predominantly Iambic pentameter with each sonnet line consisting of ten syllables.

2. They often present a problem and a solution. Shakespeare usually presents a problem in the first octet (8 lines) and a solution in the sestet (6 lines) with a volta (a turn) in line 9 which transitions from problem to solution.

3. They were originally written in Italian. The  sonnet form originated in Italy and was popularised by Italian masters like Petrarch, Dante and Michelangelo.

4. They frequently focus upon love and romance. Originally used as a medium to express love, Shakespeare’s sonnets  went on to explore different themes like friendship, passage of time, beauty and mortality.

URGENT PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!Why did nations adopt authoritarian governments in the 1930's? *
Karolina [17]

Answer:

1. The great depression

2.The lack of democratic traditions

Explanation:

This question dwells intensively upon the causes of World War 2. Several nations took an aggressive position in world politics, based on an authoritarian style of Government.

Italy became Fascist

Japan became an Absolute Monarchy

Germany became Nazi.

Russia became Communist.

The Great Depression (felt worldwide) had radicalized these nations. Without experience, the authoritarians skillfully blamed the Democratic Institutions for the Great Depression. On the chance that this was true, these nations turned back in time to the most successful model. of government that they knew.

In short, I see two main causes for authoritarianism in the 1930;s.

The Great Depression

The lack of Democratic traditions in that nation upon which to build.

Pani-rosa [81]
(i will use an example cause this is not me xD and i hope this helps you)

An object that I feel that symbolizes a time when I was younger, will be a parrot. I think a parrot symbolizes me when I was younger is because I used to always repeat almost everything that people say. Even if someone I didn't know says something, I would repeat it and I would get in trouble. Another reason why I think parrots symbolized my younger self is because I really liked bright colors all around me. My room was colorful, my drawings were colorful, and my clothes were colorful, just like parrot's feathers, they are different and colorful. One last reason is because just how parrots live and like the tropical weather, I would always want to go somewhere tropical and hot, for an example, Florida. These are my reasons why I think a parrot symbolized my younger self.
