What is revealed about the Chorus in this excerpt from the prologue of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet? CHORUS: Two households, b

oth alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life; Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife. The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, And the continuance of their parents' rage, Which, but their children's end, nought could remove, Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage; The which if you with patient ears attend, What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • The chorus describes two noble households (called “houses”) in the city of Verona.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

The houses hold an "old resentment" against one another that remaining parts a wellspring of savage and bleeding struggle. The Chorus expresses that from these two houses, two "star-crossed" sweethearts will show up. These darlings will patch the squabble between their families by passing on. The narrative of these two darlings, and of the horrible hardship between their families, will be the theme of this play.

What is "the crucible" within the play and how does it bring about change or reveal
Kobotan [32]

Miller's title, The Crucible, is appropriate for the play. A crucible is a container made of a substance that can resist great heat ; a crucible is also defined as a severe test. Within the context of the play the term takes on a new meaning: not only is the crucible a test, but a test designed to bring about change or reveal an individual's true character. The witch trials serve as a metaphorical crucible, which burns away the characters' outer shells to reveal their true intentions and character beneath. Throughout the play, Miller carefully peels away the layers of each character so that the audience not only can identify the character's motivation, but also can reevaluate the character through his or her actions. In other words, the audience observes the character as he or she is tested, and the audience ultimately determines if he or she passes the test.

Which verb moods would be best to combine in an essay on what life would be like if all wars were ended?
LuckyWell [14K]

The answer is conditional and subjunctive moods.

The conditional mood is used to talk about improbable situations and  circumstances which depend on some condition.

For example: <em>If all wars were ended, the world would be a happier place.</em>

The subjunctive mood is used to describe wishes and hypothetical conditions.

For instance: <em>I wish all wars were ended. </em>
