Who knighted King arthur
zysi [14]
That is a very controversial question. First of all, King Arthur was a king, not a knight. And if you mean who crowned King Arthur, then that would be his followers. And if you are referring to some point before his kingship, then it could be the Lady of the Lake, or Merlin. It all depends on which version of the story you mean, because there are hundreds.

Hester is free from prison. Why does she decide to stay in Boston? Give two reasons
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

I believe that by staying in Boston, Hester is attempting to regain self-determination by suggesting that she does not need to live a life of lies in order to resist societies cruel attitude towards her. She also may have remained in Boston due to the fact that she feels an attachment towards her child's father.

Why did Shakespeare choose to write this play in the meter of iambic pentameter?
anastassius [24]
First of all iambic pentameter is lyrical in nature and flows very easily making it easy to remember also its was a convention at the time within poetry (see Shakespear's sonnets) as well as plays. it is also less awkward then basis prose and sounds better this why many rap artist use this system today, remembering that Shakespeare in his day was not particularly highbrow  it makes sense why he chose to use iambic pentameter.
