What is one universal theme illustrated by the character relationships in
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

D. People depend on each other.

Explanation:

Samuel Beckett's one act play "Endgame" tells of an absurd story of a blind protagonist and his power over the other characters who are also helpless in their own ways. This power dynamics among the characters, with the character of Hamm as the most supreme of the four, is evident in his constant need of help from Clov.

Throughout the play, we can see that Hamm depends on his servant Clov for whatever he needed to do. Meanwhile, Clov also have a sense of obligation to his master Hamm who had taken him in when he was alone. This subservient notion is numerously questioned by him but that did not overrun his feeling of obligation to Hamm. Also, the characters of Nagg and Nell shows the dependence of each other for their survival. The couple who re parents to Hamm also had to depend on their son, and Nagg constantly has to "kiss" Nell which seems to him the only thing that keeps him going. All these characters' relationships with one another shows the universal theme of a person depending on each other for their survival.

What can a writer describe about two characters to help develop their personalities
photoshop1234 [79]

Hello there! Here are some ways a writer can describe about two characters to help develop their personalities:

  • Through their thoughts and actions:<em> How they react to or what they think after certain situations can show if they're sympathetic, jealous, rude, stuff like that, basically their traits.</em>
  • Hobbies/Interests: <em>What they do for fun can tell a lot about them. For example, a serial killer and ballerina are, well, very different. Showing what they do reveals them more as a person.</em>
  • How they present themselves:<em> this can show a lot about a person, especially with how they take care of themselves, if they shower often, how they walk...</em>
  • How they interact with other characters: <em>You know the cliche grumpy old neighbor - or the snobby popular girl? These cliches are built up from how these characters interact with others. A snobby girl could talk down on people she believes are not as good as her. the grumpy man may yell at kids for crossing his lawn</em>

These are all factors you can take into account. In summary, how characters interact with their environment, society and themselves really goes to show their personalities. I hope my answer was helpful, have a great day!
