Answer:
C). Beckett begins with the idea of endings.
Explanation:
'Endgame' by Samuel Beckett works upon the existentialist philosophy and belongs to the 'theater of absurd.' It is often considered as the follow up of Beckett's classic work 'Waiting for Godot.'
As per the question, <u>the play authorizes the idea of circularity as the play begins and ends on the same note i.e. 'intertwining of beginning and end</u>.' It is based upon the key idea of 'hopelessness' and the characters are endlessly waiting for 'nothing' but death. Clove internally feels 'he need to live' and plans of leaving but could not and goes back to the same situation(reflects absurdity and nothingness). Thus, the entire play moves around this very idea and hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
1. Three
2. Aabb
3. Fixed form
Explanation:
Think of the excerpt they gave us as paragraphs instead of stanzas . There are three large chunks in the passage which would make it three stanzas . The rhyme scheme would be aabb because of its constant rhyming through each line . And the poetic structure the author uses is fixed form due to how he interprets his poem in a mannerly structure .
The lines are spoken by <u>Friar Lawrence</u> to <u>Capulet</u>, and it refers to the heaven being bothered to <u>Capulet</u> by some past sin he committed. At the same time, <u>Friar Lawrence</u> mentions that <u>Capulet </u>should stop trying to go against heaven and stop challenging it and questioning the reasons why the wedding became a funeral.
Answer:
The main idea in this entry from Dorothy Wordsworth's journal is:
B. the weather during the writer's journey to Holford.
Explanation:
After reading this passage, we can see how the focus is on the weather. Even if it is described in almost poetic way, and even if the moon is mentioned a couple of times, the author's point is to give an account of what the weather was like during the journey to Holford. We are told about the clouds, gusts of wind, the sound of the storm, what things looked like before and after it hit... Notice, however, that the writer does not express any dislike for the stormy weather. It is just a simple account of it, but written in a beautiful manner.
