Why are Shakespeares plays condisderd difficult for nodern students to understand

English
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago
3 0

Well, there could be many reasons. First off, there are many different historical and cultural differences between Shakespeare's time and modern times that a modern student doesn't pick up on, doesn't understand.

Second, you simply have to take into account the fact that, with modern technology, students' attention spans have gotten so bad that simply reading Shakespeare plays is "too boring" for them.

Modern students want quick answers, a bubble they can circle on a multiple choice test type of answer. Interpreting Shakespearean plays requires thought and critical thinking, things that, I'm sorry, but no students seem to use nowadays.

Also, there is the small fact that, especially amongst teenage males, things like plays and reading Shakespeare are labeled as feminine or "gay".

From my previous ans to ur Q last week:

Daisy is the ultimate status symbol; at least for Gatsby she is. In a way, she IS the American Dream. W<span>hen Daisy and Gatsby reunite and begin an affair, it seems like Gatsby could in fact achieve his goal.

But </span>Daisy refuses to leave Tom and Gatsby is killed by George. With the “strivers” all dead, the old money crowd is safe again. <span>Daisy was born with money and does not need to strive for great wealth or other far-off things from the American Dream.

</span>Nick describes Daisy as “High in a white palace the king’s daughter, the golden girl,” literally considering Daisy as a prize. He also pessimistically says, “you can’t repeat the past”, implying there is but a small window for certain dreams.  The dreams cannot be achieved once the window is closed.

Nick is not happy with his family’s respectable fortune and his girlfriend out west. At the end, <span>Nick sadly meditates on the lost promise of the American Dream
</span>

The part on Nick was a little thin - as Nick explains in the book, the American dream was originally about discovery, individualism, and the pursuit of happiness. It has been corrupted by <span>easy money and relaxed social values. Nick</span><span> realized after Gatsby's death: the dream was also about learning from the past.

"On Nick’s last night in the East, he walks over to Gatsby’s mansion. Nick looks out along the beach and wonders what this land was like long ago-when it was a new and unspoiled world. Nick sees the green light. The green light represents the dream. The pure dream that Gatsby had. The purity of the American Dream is something that is in our past. The past of our nation, and in the innocence of our youth.
</span>
Nick realizes that what Gatsby had was the sense of unlimited promise. He possessed The American Dream. An older and wiser Nick returns to the Midwest."

A sample of a text that we can use to illustrate how to make a summary and analysis would be <em>Animal Farm</em> by George Orwell.

The summary of the book is the behavior of the animals after they had successfully overthrown the humans because they did not like how they were treated, but ended up being worse than the humans who they overthrew.

The analysis of the book is that it is an allegorical narration that mirrors the Russian Revolution and its use of animals that could talk and reason like humans helped make it more entertaining and gave it a refreshing perspective,.

<h3>What is a Summary?</h3>

This refers to the concise representation of the main points of a text in an objective manner.

Which literary device does the underlined portion of the text most clearly show?
Alja [10]

Answer:

B) Flashback

Explanation:

I have found the sentence that is missing in your question. Also, I think that the sentence is not written correctly but I cannot find from which story it comes from.

”If she close her eyes, she down from a nearby mountain and chasing her family.”

  • In this sentence we can see a flashback as a literary device because the narrator is describing us a situation from the past in which he has the ability to remember it trough closed eyes.

Flashback are often shown in literary work as interruptions where writers are showing action that happened in the past because in that way they are providing context to some events or narrative that will happen in the future.
