Think about the experiences you've had with dramatic texts, including seeing live performances or film adaptations. How does the

era in which a play was written affect your ability to enjoy it or understand it? How is it different to read or see a play written more than two millennia ago (such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece) compared to a few centuries ago (for example, Shakespeare or others from the Renaissance) or one produced in the last 100 years?
Is there something like a modern sensibility to more recently written dramatic works that helps you connect better to them than to works from past centuries? Are there traits in older forms of drama that engage you because they are NOT modern? Describe the traits of drama that keep you engaged as well as characteristics that make it challenging to do so.

Answer:

1.  The era in which a play was written affects the ability of reader’s/spectator’s ability to enjoy it or understand it due to the lack of context, such as social norms (which change with every era), historical events which were the influence or inspiration for the dramatic word.

2. The difference in reading or seeing a play written more than two millennia ago such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece compared to a few centuries ago such as Shakespearean ones or one produced in the last 100 years is in the form of drama. Greek and Shakespearean drama are continuation of the same tradition but they have different forms and context. What makes these old dramas popular in modern time is their everlasting themes.

3. There certainly is. Modern sensibility helps you to connect better to the more recently written dramatic works that than to works from past centuries, as the context is much closer and therefore even more personal and understandable. But, that sometimes isn’t the matter, for example with Avant-Garde dramas.

4.  Speaking from myself, yes, there are certain traits in older forms of drama that engage me more in older dramas because they don’t have a modern form or sometimes theme. When you engage in an artistic work it is according to your own sensibility.

5. The traits of drama that keep modern people engaged are mostly the context which influences the capability to understand it better and therefore to engage in it. The characteristics that make it challenging to do so are mostly the forms and language which is confusing and most likely failed to deliver what author actually wanted to achieve, like in Avant-Garde and Postmodernism dramas.

The correct answer is the last option.

In citations, longer texts (for example, novels) should be put in italics, while shorter texts (like articles and short stories) should be encased in quotation marks: "Greens Get a Boost Under the Glow of the Supermarket."

disa [49]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Often times when we study the Civil Rights Movement, we focus on well-known individuals like MLK and Rosa Parks. But in reality, the success of the Movement was a combination of group and individual actions of people who really committed to fighting for the rights of African Americans.

There were powerful organizations that participated in the movement such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) or the Leadership Conference of Civil Rights(LCCR) who played an important role in the process.

There were also other major events that are marked as important hiatus in the story of the civil rights moments. I am talking about the Greensboro sit-ins, the March on Washington, or the Salma to Mongomery Marches.

Regarding Rosa Parks, let's remember that Rosa Parks was the woman arrested in Montgomery, Alabama in 1955. She denied giving her seat to a white passenger in a bus. That was the beginning of the Montgomery Bus Boycott.
