Answer:

Greece

Explanation:

In ancient Greece, the theatre was one of the most important parts of the culture and art, as they valued the spoken word. It started to develop around 600 years BC. Dramatic arts were a means to explore and understand life, humans, and gods. The main genres were comedy and tragedy.

Comedy was used to put a satirical and humorous perspective on everyday life and human trains. They would often exaggerate stories and features with the masks. Some of the most famous comedies are Lysistrata, The Clouds, and the Frogs.

Greek tragedies are older than the comedies and the oldest ones come from Athens. Tragedies explored stories of love, loss, pride, conflict with gods, and so on. Many of them were based on myths and dealt with ideas of abusing the rules, without even realizing them, and then suffering the punishment. Some of the most famous tragedies are Antigone, Electra, Medea, Helen, and Heracles.

Read the "Thanksgiving a Personal History" by Jennifer New. What does the author struggle with as her perspective of thanksgivin

Svetllana [295]

She initially admits that she doesn't feel much toward Thanksgiving, but then progresses to reflecting on the unique memories from her childhood that stick out; she realizes that her perception of tradition was surrounded by a desire to explore and see more variation in the world, experience the new. As she grows older she sees the blatant consumerism and the beauty of 'togetherness' marred by expectations of spending lots of money. As she spends more time with friends and others, they begin to see differently how Thanksgiving can be viewed from multiple perspectives; as she then marries to a husband with a larger family, more diverse, she sees the dichotomy of willing to be in a group of people but also alone. Through reflection she realizes that she actually yearns for the solitude that her childhood Thanksgiving's brought her, and the quiet time with family.
