The theme of a story is what the author is trying to convey — in other words, the central idea of the story. ... The plot is simply what happens in the story and the order of the story's events, and the moral is the lesson that the writer wants the main character (and by extension, you) to learn from the story.

How is it ironic that Michelangelo’s father feared Michelangelo would not be worthy of the family name and even scolded him for
Triss [41]

Answer and Explanation:

Irony happens when the outcome of events turns out to be the opposite of what was expected.

<u>It is ironic that Michelangelo's father would fear his son's failure. He even scolded him for pursuing arts instead of academic studies. Why is it ironic? Because Michelangelo (1475 - 1564) not only did not fail, but he was such an amazing artist that his name remains as one of the most famous in the world. His expertise was such that he is seen by many as a rival of Leonardo Da Vinci, since they both developed their knowledge and abilities in several different fields. Michelangelo is probably most famous nowadays for his frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, in Rome. He was also an incredible sculptor - David being one of his greatest works.</u>

Who are macbeth's second and third victims? what reason does he give for killing them? why does lady macbeth faint? explain your
pogonyaev
1. Macbeth's second and third victims are the two guards who were standing in front of Duncan's bedroom door. His plan was to kill Duncan in his sleep, but the guards were preventing him from doing that. This is why he killed the two guards with the help of his wife. The reason why he did that was so that he could have someone to blame for the death of the king - he would say that he caught them killing the king, which is why he had to have them murdered as well. 

2. Lady Macbeth fainted to distract everyone's attention to her. She knew that Macbeth was weak, and that if questioned, he would admit to everything - to killing Banquo, Duncan's guards, and Duncan himself. This is why she decided to take matters into her own hands and therefore she pretended to faint. Thus everyone gathered around her to help her, and Macbeth 'fortunately' didn't get the chance to reveal their crime to everyone.
