Not sure what your question is, but here is some information about it:

- It was introduced around 1750s but people already partially stopped using it around 1790s
-There were some specific rules for it, but there was some confusion about them and not everyone followed them

In the poem “The Man He Killed', why does the poet wish if he had met his
lora16 [44]

Answer:

"The Man He Killed" was written by the British Victorian poet and novelist Thomas Hardy, and first published in 1902. A dramatic monologue, the poem's speaker recounts having to kill a man in war with whom he had found himself "face to face." Talking casually throughout, the speaker discusses how this man could easily have been his friend, someone he might have, under different circumstances, had a drink with in an "ancient inn." Struggling to find a good reason for shooting the man, the speaker says it was "just so"—it was just what happens during war. The poem thus highlights the senselessness and wasteful tragedy of human conflict, and is specifically thought to have been inspired by the events of the Boer War in South Africa. Effect of war is the major theme of this poem. The poem is about the soldier killing another man because they are fighting on opposite fronts in the war. Ironically, the speaker fails to justify his action. He simply states that the deceased was his foe.

Which of the following is not a significant theme in the play?
Bumek [7]

I presume you are talking about the Importance of Being Earnest. The answer is likely to be B: Friendship and Honor.

The entire play is focusing on Jack and Algy with their double lives.

Marriage and Courtship is one of the main points in the play, as it's all about how and who these people want to be with.

Social class and mobility is practically the entire point of the play, as Wilde is satirizing it.

This leaves you with Friendship and Honor. There is some importance on friendship in this play, but most instances are just said friends fighting over something.
