The correct answer is 4. No, because he digresses into another topic and does not address historical knowledge.
Explanation
At the beginning of the paragraph, the author announces the sentence "In no other department is a thorough knowledge of history so important as a philosophy". However, nowhere in the paragraph does he develop this idea, on the contrary, he mentions other issues such as the relationship between philosophy and other fields such as exact inqury, the arts (as he mentioned in "on the other hand, in touch with exact inquiry, while, on the other, it has a certain relationship with art"), natural sciences, metaphysical principles, among others. From the above, it can be inferred that the correct answer is 4. No, because he digresses into another topic and does not address historical knowledge.
Answer:
A. The speaker mentions Hamlet to show how he comes to terms with indecision and makes a stand.
Explanation:
In this stanza, the speaker compares himself to the characters in <em>Hamlet</em>. He tells us that he is not Prince Hamlet, who eventually overcomes his indecision and makes a stand. Instead, he is an "attendant." He is only useful to move the story along ("<em>To swell a progress, start a scene or two,"</em>) and is too careful and mild to be exciting in the way Hamlet is (<em>"Politic, cautious, and meticulous; Full of high sentence, but a bit obtuse;</em>"), so much so that he can end up looking like "the Fool." The poem makes an allusion to Hamlet, as an allusion is an indirect reference to a work, place, event, person or idea from an unrelated context.
