Answer:

The correct answer is In contrast to Gertrude, Hecuba is the ideal image of a grieving widow.

Explanation:

Shakespeare alludes to Hecuba in this scene since in contrast to Gertrude Hecuba is the ideal image of a grieving widow.

As we know, Hamlet did not want her mother to marry Claudius since he had murdered his father. That is why Gertrude does not appear to be the typical widow who mourns his dead husband, but quickly remarries.

Instead Hecuba, Priam's wife is a great example of a grieving widow.

Respond in a paragraph. Answer is written in complete sentences,
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

So in the story, the pardoner would let individuals know that, in case they gave him cash, every one of their transgressions would be eradicated or washed away. At the point when individuals would feel remorseful for a transgression, they would purchase their "salvation" from the pardoner. I feel like what this says about the pardoner is that he is narrow minded and dishonest. He exploits individuals. The pardoner designated individuals in a frantic condition of not needed the fierceness of God to come over them. He utilized this for his potential benefit which is self centered. He was defrauding these individuals by not really giving them salvation. He was exploited the mentality they were in for his own benefit.

Explanation: Hope this helps:)
