English

A drama is considered a tragedy when its main characters are noble and the outcome is fatal. The main character makes a fatal error (<em>Hamartia </em>in Greek as defined by Aristotle) trying to do the right thing in a scenario where the right thing cannot be done. This leads to the main character's death or other form of moral or physical corruption, such as going crazy. In the case of Hamlet, prince of Denmark, the main character tries to avenge the death of his father the king by killing his murderer, the king's brother Claudio, who did so and married Hamlet's mother the queen to become king.

"I call not upon a few but upon all—not on this state or that state, but on every state—up and help us. . . . Let it be told to
denis-greek [22]

The pamphlet seeks to engage Americans in the fight against the British. Indeed, Paine wrote The American Crisis pamphlets during the early stages of the American Revolution that were very unfavorable to Americans and when their cause seemed more uncertain than ever. Support for the Revolution was waning and Paine intended to galvanize it in order to facilitate a turnaround of the current situation.

The analogy of winter intends to show the reader that as winter gives way to the new life of Spring, the initial struggles and defeats of the American Revolution would give life to victory. The use of the terms hope and virtue intend to show Americans that this was a just war against tyranny and that the alternative to victory was the death of democracy.

How does the author use dramatic irony to create humor in king of the jungle
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The author provokes naivety in the characters, making them not know the obvious things that the public already knows, creating humor from naivete.

Explanation:

The dramatic irony is identified in a text when the author uses symbols to pass messages to the public without revealing anything to the characters. This creates unpredictability for the character and an advantage for the audience that is following the story. In this case, the author can create humor (where the audience laughs at the character's naivete and therefore his inability to act correctly) or suspense (letting the reader know the element of drama that the character is not aware of).
