When Caliban refers to Trinculo as "this thing" in line 13, the word thing conveys

English

Answer: The contempt he has for Trinculo.

Caliban uses this word in Act III, scene 2. The passage is the following:

<em> I say, by sorcery he got this isle; </em>

<em>From me he got it. If thy greatness will </em>

<em>Revenge it on him, for I know thou darest, </em>

<em>But this </em><em><u>thing</u></em><em> dare not, </em>

In this scene, Caliban is plotting with Stephano to take the island away from Prospero, and rule it. He refers to Stephano as "thy greatness" and says that he believes he has what it takes to carry it out. However, he thinks little of Trinculo and does not think he would dare commit something like that. The contempt Caliban has for Trinculo is shown in his use of the word "thing."

zheka24 [161]

Explanation:

              "The Storm" is one of the most famous short stories that was written in the year 1898 by the author named, Kate Chopin. It is about a love story about two person, Calixta and Alcee.

             The author uses many symbols to represents and plots his story. One such symbols is the 'storm'. It is the main symbol of the story. It mainly represents the sexual drive of  Alcée and Calixta and their repercussions because of this drive. The 'rain' is also used as a symbol in this story. It symbolizes and introduces the adulterous affair between the two. The rain starts falling when Alcee arrive sand it stops as he moves away. Other symbols used are the name of the place, Assumption, the colors white, red, green, etc.

              The setting placed in this story tries to create the perfect environment for an adulterous affair. In “The Storm”, by Kate Chopin,  Chopin not only wishes to create the perfect setting but she also uses her setting as the symbol of the affair. The storm and the sexual passion of Calixta and Alcée are both potentially destructive. The storm's destructive act which lead the two protagonists to have sex, it will most likely to have a destructive effect to their marriages.

             Kate Chopin uses the word 'storm' as a metaphor as it sets the mood of the setting of the story and also it symbolizes its potential destructive nature which may ruin the marriage life of both Alcee and Calixta.
