When Grandpa Jim says, "only fools rush in where angels fear to tread," he means that you should be careful and think twice before putting yourself in a scary situation. Scary stories teach us that it is okay to be scared sometimes, because if we were never afraid, we would put ourselves in danger without thinking.
<span>It is important to examine an
author’s and/or publisher’s institutional affiliations and/or previous works
because this is important when vetting your sources for bias and therefore
credibility. What is meant by this? Well, let’s say you were doing research on a
gun control issue. Let’s further say you
have discovered a really good, well-written article in support of gun control in
favor of gun rights/the right to bear arms.
However, upon doing a little investigating, you discover that the author
of the article is in fact a member of the National Rifle Association. As such, the article is most likely biased
and therefore not a reliable source of information. So, again, it is important
to always examine an author’s or publisher’s institutional affiliations as well
as previous works. </span>
Understanding a poem's dramatic context helps the reader to figure out the theme because it could give many clues leading up to the theme(it gives example of the theme). It also helps to set a mood and gives a better idea of how the author is feeling.
