MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Personally, I disagree and agree.

Explanation:

"Love overshadows hate dramatically, since it is the passion of the protaganist and since Shakespeare has lavished his most moving poetry upon the love scenes."

Basically, what he's saying here is that love is more powerful than hate because Juliet/Romeo are so passionate about it. Furthermore, Shakespeare's most famous lines often come from the love scenes in Romeo and Juliet.

Love is not more powerful than hate. In fact, these two emotions are about the same level of intensity. They both require focus on a person/multiple people, they both require energy, and they both are in general, just powerful feelings that have been demonstrated through history. One can be stronger than the other. It just depends on the situation.

Secondly, his reasoning makes sense. Love, in this instance, overcomes the family feud that the two protagionists' families have. So, love does overpower hate in this story. However, take that with a grain of salt, because the love that happens ends in a tragedy. Both protaganists die because they, arguably, loved a little too much.

Thirdly, I don't agree with the statement "and since Shakespeare has lavished his most moving poetry upon the love scenes." Sure, his most famous lines are from these scenes, but that shouldn't be a reason to why love overpowers hate. It should just be an example of what Shakespeare wanted to achieve. He wanted to show that in this instance, love can be more powerful than hate. Does that mean it is in every situation? No.

Those are my ways of seeing it, I hope you get a good grade and I hope you understand Shakespeare, because it is really hard to. Good luck!

How does Wealth in the great gatsby relate to today's world

Natalija [7]

Nearly a century after its publication, F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" remains a literary classic. One challenge it presents, though, is understanding how the Roaring '20s tale of Jay Gatsby's pursuit of wealth and romance at all costs is still relevant nearly a century later. The novel's portrayal of materialism, superficial relationships and the myths of fame and celebrity create remarkable parallels between Gatsby's world and the present day.

Materialism
Possessions and status are a key ingredient to many of the characters' lifestyles. In order to attract Daisy's interest, Gatsby defines himself by his enormous house, decadent parties and distinctive cars and clothing. Daisy, too, values materialism, as the convenience of her marriage to wealthy polo player Tom Buchanan keeps her from fully embracing Gatsby's vision for their future. High school English teacher David Dowling writes that America's continued obsession with materialism is one reason for the novel's permanence, depicting the conflict between moral values and the desire for wealth that still entangles people today.

How can I remove a paint splatter from the wall before my parents wake up??

Kazeer [188]

Apply a thin coat of olive oil to paint drips, and rub with a dry rag, working in a circular motion.

For stubborn spots, wrap a rag around a plastic putty knife and scrape, exerting only light pressure. As a last resort, try applying a small amount of mineral spirits and wiping with a dry rag.
