The king sends people to the arena because he thinks that if they chose the right door (the lady) they were good people but if they chose the wrong door (the tiger) they deserved it and they were bad people.
Our Town by Thornton Wilder is a modernist play because it explores the transience of human life, in a sense that the characters in the play highlight the significance of the little things that they do in their daily lives. The play is also narrated through the view of a stage manager which openly tells the audience about how the stage is designed and what each prop is meant for. The stage manager is a character both inside and outside the play which blurs the wall between the reality that what the audience is about to see is fictional, and the fiction that the play is supposedly real in the character's point of view. This characteristic of the play destabilizes the line between fact and fiction and is considered a modernist play based on that setting itself, among all other themes of the play.
Flat and Static
A flat character is an uncomplicated character.
A static character is a character that ungergos little/to no change
Limericks and haiku's have some qualities that they share but these two forms of poetry are very different. Haiku's are a from of traditional Japanese poetry, unlike Limerick's origin which is unknown. They are both similar though because each of these forms of poetry have evolved throughout the years and can be used to express, most commonly, feeling towards nature. A haiku's format is much different then any type of poetry, it consists of 3 lines, the firs and last lines of a haiku's only have 5 syllables while the middles line has seven, they generally do not rhyme. Limericks format consist of 5 lines and his usually humorous, <span>The first, second, and fifth lines must have seven to ten syllables while rhyming and having the same verbal rhythm. The third and fourth lines only have to have five to seven syllables, and have to rhyme with each other and have the same rhythm. These two forms are similar in another way, as you can see both of the forms consist of a specific amount of syllables in their lines, although they do not have the same amount needed. Limericks and Haiku are all forms of poetry but poetry is very diverse and similar at the same time!
