Answer:

He explores the purpose of living and places a high value on reason.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet" tells the story of how a young son/ prince avenged the death of his father on the hands of his own uncle. Claudius had not only murdered the former king but also taken his wife, Queen Gertrude to be his own wife.

The passage / speech of Hamlet is based off the scene from Act IV scene iv, when everyone had left and only Hamlet was left on the stage. He is saying that man and animals are alike, if only men does not use his reasoning and thinking capacity. Since he's been planning on how and when to do the deed, he claims that men are supposed to use their reasoning skills everyday, or that wouldn't have made them no different to the animals. This importance of reason and thinking was one of the more important issues that Renaissance humanism emphasizes, thus reflected in this scene.

How can you tell from the preamble that the constitution is meant to do more than merely resolve the country’s issues at the tim
Alexeev081 [22]
The Preamble:
We the people of the United States of America, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the genreal welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United States of America.

It states that they're going to provide freedom for the nation, provide support for our soldiers (I think that's what they mean by common defense), enforce laws, and basically make the nation just a peaceful, free land.

Let me know if this helps.

What makes Holden depressed in Catcher in the Rye? Can you give a page number and quotation?
AnnyKZ [126]

Holden gets depressed because of fake behaviors. In the beginning of the novel, Holden describes how it makes him depressed when the headmaster only talks with the parents of the students if they are good-looking. He explains it in this following quote:

I can’t stand that stuff. It drives me crazy. It makes me so depressed I go crazy. I hated that goddam Elkton Hills (Page 13)


Holden became sad in the novel when his mother gave him the skates which was in wrong size:

One thing about packing depressed me a little. I had to pack these brand-new ice skates my mother had practically just sent me a couple of days before. That depressed me. I could see my mother going in Spaulding’s and asking the salesman a million dopy questions-and here I was getting the ax again. It made me feel pretty sad. She bought me the wrong kind of skates-I wanted racing skates and she bought hockey-but it made me sad anyway. Almost every time somebody gives me a present, it ends up making me sad (Page 37,38)


Holden also disapproves the tourists who want to see the show in the first place. He considers it naive because these people think that they are getting somewhere with this, in his opinion they are not actually.


And that business about getting up early to see the first show at Radio City Music Hall depressed me. If somebody, some girl in an awful-looking hat, for instance, comes all the way to New York- from Seattle, Washington, for God’s sake-and ends up getting up early in the morning to see the goddam first show at Radio City Music Hall, it makes me so depressed I can’t stand it (Page 53)
