<u>Explanation:</u>

Macbeth wishes to take up the throne and believes he would be the next king. In Act IV, scene I, Macbeth tries to demonstrate his ambition to the witches.

Which lines in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich together use symbolism to indicate that death is approac
Margarita [4]

The lines from this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s, "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" that use symbolism to indicate that death is approaching are:

"There was light and now there is darkness. I was here and now I'm going there!"

Here, the author uses the symbols of light and dark to represent life and death. Where there is light there is life, whereas darkness means to close his eyes forever and fall into an eternal slumber.

Tolstoy also uses the references "here" and "there" to refer to life on earth and the afterlife. Ivan feels like his time in this side is ending, and that he is finally going "there," to the afterworld.

Think about how Alec's monologue contributes to the meaning of the play. What details in this speech help you better understand
trapecia [35]

Hello. You did not inform the play to which this question refers, which makes it impossible to formulate an exact answer. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

A monologue is a character's speech. This speech the character makes alone because he is expressing his deepest feelings and thoughts. This promotes a broad understanding of the audience with the character's actions, because the character is showing the most intimate of his being. Usually these speeches are emotional and have a strong appeal to the feelings of the audience, the actor and the character.
