This question is about the poem "No Man is an Island", by John Donne.
Answer:
The statement that best describes a theme of the poem is:
C. Everyone and everything in the world is connected as part of a larger whole.
Explanation:
No wonder the title of the poem says no man is an island. We are all connected; we are a continent, a family. If one of us dies, no matter where in the world, all the rest of us should grieve, according to the speaker. We are a part of a larger whole. No man is truly isolated for all men are a part of humankind:
<em>[...]any man's death diminishes me,
</em>
<em>because I am involved in mankind.
</em>
<em>And therefore never send to know for whom
</em>
<em>the bell tolls;</em>
<em>it tolls for thee.</em>

The reason hun is because Shakespeare uses an early form of the English language. There are a few differences between today's English and Shakespeare's Early Modern English. He uses words such as thee, thy, lord, thou, art, etc which is complicated for us to understand. Also, many of Shakespeare's plays were written in iambic pentameter which makes his writings much more difficult to interpret. Another thing is that he invented new words in his writings, over 1,000 words he invented.
