In at least two hundred words, discuss the way the book begins and ends with a “story” about Okonkwo, and what the difference in
kow [346]

Answer:

Explanation:

The last sections of  Things Fall Apart are viewed as the most emotional occasions of the story as it closes with Okonkwo, a man who went through the greater part of his time on earth turning into a solid and regarded figure in his general public, ending his life. Directly before he ends his own life, he additionally ends the life of an envoy with a blade. In these last parts, Okonkwo shows the subject of individual versus society by doing things that are not satisfactory in the public eye and following up on brutality and animosity. All through the entire book, Okonkwo battled to live inside the limits of the Igbo society and he endured the results each time he damaged them for his own needs and wants. When Okonkwo ends his life toward the finish of the book, his companion Obierika is profoundly disheartened and tells the Commissioner that he can't cover Okonkwo in light of the fact that it is taboo to submit ... in Igbo conventions and that whoever does is viewed as detestable. Okonkwo conflicted with the customs of his general public and group and completely split away from his locale because of the conditions of his general public and what his general public reached be at long last.

What is one possible disadvantage of hearing the characters’ voices as opposed to silently reading the scene?
ziro4ka [17]

The answers are: It does not allow listeners to interpret each character through his or her tone; and it does not allow listeners to review or reread what each character has said.

When hearing the characters voices out loud, and in the hypothetical case that it is a live audition and not a recording, one, as part of the audience, does not have, evidently, the possibility of reviewing or rereading what each character says. This may seem vane, but in reality, it can be very important when reading since sometimes the sense of what´s being read is so profound that, in order to capture in full, one needs to review a certain passage.

Also, hearing the characters has the disadvantage of making their voices concrete and specific according to whoever is speaking. This leaves out the possibility of filling the character´s voice with one´s own imagination, wit, and fantasy, which usually are very important characteristics of a fictional character (literature, in the end, is always a very subjective activity on the side of the reader).

Despite centuries of tension, England and Scotland united under one monarchy when Scotland’s James VI became James I of England
bogdanovich [222]

Macbeth is considered by many a critic a Sakespeare's mature tragedy. The play contains a lot of supernatural elements and takes place in Scotland. Indeed, these traits do not appear by chance. It is well known that King James had a fascination for the obscure arts, there is even a book called "Daemonologie" written by the king himself.

The Scottish play, as it was called, begins with witchcraft. The lines where it is said that three "weyrd" sisters "All heil Macbeth, that shall be King hereafter!" (49, 50) reflects Shakespeare's intention to reverence his patron and his interest in the uncanny. It is of importance to mention that the word "weyrd" has its origin in the old English word for fate, which is one of the main themes and motifs in the play. Macbeth is to become king and face his destiny.

Macbeth's skepticism is present when we read in the words of Macbeth orders "Say from whence / You owe this intelligence? Or why / Upon this blasted heath you stop our way" (75-77). There was skepticism for what was to come with the new union. The term United Kingdom comes from there, from the alliance of the nations.

The play, with all its supernatural elements and references to withcraft and nobility, demonstrate respect and honor to the new king, who watched the theatrical representation of the tragedy and found the association to his interest in the dark arts presented in the Globe.
