English

Answer:

The character relationship in "The Tempest" that is the best example of linguistic imperialism is:

D. Prospero and Caliban, because one forces the other to speak his  language.

Explanation:

<u>Linguistic imperialism can be defined as the imposition of one language on speakers of other languages. As we know, linguistic imperialism was a weapon of colonization.</u> Colonizers would forbid natives from speaking in their own mother tongues, forcing them to learn the colonizers' language. This was one of the many ways to keep natives under control while depriving them from their original identity and culture.

<u>That type of relationship is seen in "The Tempest", a play by Shakespeare, set in an island ruled by former Duke of Milan, Prospero. Prospero has forced a native islander, Caliban, to learn his language. Just like what happens in real life, Caliban is often called a monster. It is typical of colonizers to try and represent the natives as animals or, at least, as inferior in reasoning and knowledge. However, Caliban is actually perfectly capable of expressing himself and of understanding others. His representation is made through the eyes of the dominant culture, that is, in a prejudiced manner.</u>

The novel Frankenstein emerged from an informal storytelling contest among Mary Shelley and her husband and friends. Originally,
finlep [7]

There are are many books, media, movies that represent Frankenstein's story but the one that I like the most is Edward Scissorhands because it depicts American society and it portrays a humorous tone at the beginning of the story at least and it doesn't finish so sadly as Shelley's original novel although Edward Scissorhands has some drama at the end . The creator of Edward Scissorhands doesn't appear in the movie in contrast of Shelley's character in which the relationship between the creator and the monster is very problematic. People react differently to the monster. In Shelley's story the monster in never accepted and in Edward Scissorhands, he is accepted as the new thing in town at the beginning of the story.

1.-The form of media: It is a movie.

2.-The story is presented humorously at the beginning and dramatically at the end.

3.-The tone in Shelley's novel is mostly dramatic while in Edward Scissorhands is humorous at the beginning and dramatic at the end.
