Restoration Comedy was the result of a revival of the theatre 1660, aftering being banned during the Puritan days of England. 

The genre was quite raunchy for the time, and mocked many elements of contemporary British society, like Wilde's play did. It also did not attempt to impose a morality on its works, preferring rather to create art for the sake of art, like The Importance of Being Earnest.

Serjik [45]

Answer and Explanation:

This question is about the short story "The Most Dangerous Game," by Richard Connell (1893-1949), an American writer and journalist. In the story, the main characters are Rainsford and General Zaroff, two very skilled hunters. Rainsford falls from a yacht and ends up on Zaroff's island, where he is hunted by the general.

The setting changes after Rainsford sees lights in the distance. What is the new setting?

After falling from the yacht and swimming to the island, Rainsford walks for a while. At first, all he can see are rocks and a dense jungle. After some time, he sees lights in the distance. The setting changes, the new setting being Zaroff's mansion.

What details are provided about the it?

The narrator describes the place as being incredibly large - so large that Rainsford thinks it is a village at first. Word choice conveys the grandiosity of the house: "enormous building", "lofty structure", "pointed towers". The narrator is comparing Zaroff's house to a castle, a palace.

How does Rainsford feel about this place?

The place is so astonishing that Rainsford thinks it is a mirage. Nonetheless, he walks up to it and knocks at the door.

I guess she wanted to get to the Lancelot's room sneaky using the key she has got. And she put on the socks as she wanted to look not so ladylike. But it's still not clear for me.

HELP ILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST Review the module writing prompt.

Answer:

Two different authors. One is an essay and one is a poem.But both of them  describe nature as the most amazing and beautiful thing that they have ever seen. They saw how wonderful and amazing life is. It's obvious that they have a connection with plants, air, clouds, and trees.  

William Wordsworth uses poetry  and Nate Muir uses prose, but they both use similar methods describe different things in nature and to communicate to the way nature makes them feel to their audience. They both paint a picture with words.

The writers of "Calypso Borealis", and “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud,” are similar not just through the diction, vocabulary, but also through the impact of the mood, and tone, while both of the writers express their relationship in different ways there is still the impact on the audience.
