George Orwell’s “Shooting an Elephant”, which was written in 1936 posits that “when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys'' (7). Orwell supports his statement through an overarching allegory to colonialism, ambivalent diction, and extended metaphor of one's free will and power. His purpose is to show the complex nature of imperialism and the negative impact it has- not on the subjected peoples- but on the imperialists as well, in order to reveal to the audience that it is an institution of suffering for everyone involved. He conveys his point by explaining the feeling of the pressure of being forced to do what they want him to do despite the fact that it goes against his moral judgement. He undergoes the feeling of being in a position of power and therefore must do what the people want him to do and care for what the other people think of him. Orwells casual and colloquial diction suggests his audience was intended to be broad and varie, in order to ensure the reach of his social commentary.

most of it was correct and flowed nicely :3

there were a few things I fixed though! I hope this helps ^^

What about a modern performance of a Shakespearean play could be changed without affecting the play's meaning?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

We could change the language and adapt it to reflect the contemporary English we use nowadays. That would make the play more understandable, especially for the young people and wake up their interest for the theatre.  

We could change the setting, that is, time and place of some plays and adapt it to contemporary surroundings, without changing the topic of the plays, as Shakespearean problems and inner struggles are still present in the 21st century, only in different ways.

For example, we could change characters' professions or some circumstances without changing the plot of the story. Or, perhaps, try to represent some contemporary family issues, by readapting Hamlet into a boy who is fighting against his stepfather.
