Are/is The basis for creating the voice or tone of a writers work

What is a casting director, and what do you think might be some of the possible benefits of a director using a casting director?

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A casting director is the person that organizes the casting of actors for all the roles in a play or a film. 

Explanation:

The person in this position, facilitates the process of a casting by working closely with the director and producer in order to understand their requirements. The possible benefits of the directos in having a casting director is that this person can suggest ideal artists for each role, although they must not be confused with the manager, who represents the artist directly. The possible drawback of having a casting director can be that, if they (the director and the casting director) don't communicate well, and if the casting directors doesn't comprehend exactly what the director is aiming for, he/she will probably fail in reaching the perfect artist for the role. It always takes risks for the director not being the one that leads the casting.

Which excerpt from act 3, scene ii of julius caesar is an appeal to logos

ankoles [38]

These questions just keep getting better and better. I happen to have just finished an argumentative essay on Julius Caesar so I'm definitely the person you want to ask. Ha.

First off, an appeal to logos is an appeal of logic. It's an argument based on solid facts.

In Scene II of Act III, we see Brutus give his speech to the Romans after having murdered Caesar. However, we also see Antony's appeal to the men of Rome in this act.

So now we have to narrow it down between the two. Was Antony's or Brutus's speech more factual? Which one used logos more?

Partiality aside, I'll have to pick Antony. I'll spare you the explanation as to why I chose him but I will post his excerpt and bolden what appears to be appeals to logos. (Remember, we're looking for facts here.)

ANTONY:

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;

I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.

The evil that men do lives after them;

The good is oft interred with their bones;

So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus

Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:

If it were so, it was a grievous fault,

And grievously hath Caesar answer'd it.

Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest--

For Brutus is an honourable man;

So are they all, all honourable men--

Come I to speak in Caesar's funeral.

He was my friend, faithful and just to me:

But Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

He hath brought many captives home to Rome

Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:

Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?

When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:

Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

You all did see that on the Lupercal

I thrice presented him a kingly crown,

Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And, sure, he is an honourable man.

I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,

But here I am to speak what I do know.

You all did love him once, not without cause:

What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?

O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,

And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;

My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,

And I must pause till it come back to me.

If you need further explanation, please let me know in the comments section.

Reading the short story "Layla and Majnun" above, what is the FIRST RISING ACTION of the text? +

Answer:

THE STORY OF LAYLA AND MAJNUN

By Nizami Ganjavi (1192) also called Layla and Magnun or Leili o Majun is an epic love poem composed in 584 / 1188 by the great Persian poet Nizami Ganjavi. The poem is based on a semi historical and mystical Arabian love story about 7th century Nejdi Bedouin poet Qays ibn Al-Mulawwah and the woman he loves Layla bint Mahdi (also known as Layla al-Aamariya.) It is sometimes referred to as the “Romeo and Juliet” of Iran. Below we have the complete story in English for your enjoyment.

I.

LaylaOnce there lived among the Bedouin in Arabia a great lord, a Sayyid, who ruled over the Banu Amir. No other country flourished like his and Zephyr carried the sweet scent of his glory to the farthest horizons. Success and merit made him a Sultan of the Arabs and his wealth equalled that of Korah.

He had a kind heart for the poor and for them his purse was always open. To strangers he was a generous host and in all his enterprises he succeeded as if good luck were part of him, as the stone is part of the fruit — or so it appeared to be.

Yet, though respected like a caliph, to himself he seemed like a candle, slowly consuming itself without ever spreading quite enough light. The heart of this great man was eaten by one secret sorrow; he, who otherwise possessed everything he desired, had no son.

He had remained childless. What did glory, power and wealth mean to him, if one day they would slip from his hands, without an heir to receive them?

Was the caliph fated to wither, did the branch have to die? If the cypress tree fell, where would the pheasant build his nest?Where would he find happiness? Where shade and refuge?

He only is truly alive, who in his son’s memory survives his own death. Thus the noble man brooded and, the older he grew, the greater became his desire. Yet for many years his alms and prayers were in vain. The full moon which he so eagerly awaited never rose in his sky and the jasmin seed which he sowed would not

germinate.

Still the Sayyid was not content to bow to his fate. For the sake of one wish yet unfulfilled he thought but little of everything else that heaven had granted him. That is how humans are made!

If prayers remain unanswered, do we ever reflect that it may be for our good? We feel sure that we know our needs, yet the future is veiled from our eyes. The thread of our fate ends outside the visible world and what today we mistake for a padlock, keeping us out, we may tomorrow find to be the key that lets us in.

Much, of course, can happen in the meantime.
