The correct answers are options B, C and D.

Marco Polo's cultural context are represented first in the quote about the malik of Homuz who had a castle. <em>Malik </em>means <em>king </em>in Arabic, and the Kingdom of Hormuz existed in the Persian Gulf between the 10th and 17th centuries.

Secondly, the cite about ships which made voyages in twenty days also refers to the cultural framework of Polo's time.

Finally, there is a reference to Saracen people, a term used to mention Muslims in the Middle Ages.

tatuchka [14]

Answer :

The audience learns a great deal about the setting of the play "Hamlet" from the opening lines of the first scene. We learn that the weather is cold, it is late at night and that the story takes place at a castle. The setting of the play helps to establish a dark, creepy and scary mood which is perfectly suitable for the start of a serious play like Hamlet.

ladessa [460]
#1) write an essay where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interpretation of Caesar's return.

<span>Answer: His tone is that of someone that is worried or even alarmed at Caesar’s return after he defeated his rival and also former co-ruler Pompey. Marullus knew that this victory would mean that Caesar will be the most powerful man in Rome. For this same reason he felt in a very dangerous position. He assumed that Caesar would soon impose one-man rule. Marullus joins Flavius who feels the same way to try and put a stop to Caesar. </span>

#2) How this is similar or different from the interpretation the painter has depicted?

Answer: It is clear that the interpretation the painter has depicted is very different. This is apparent when you compare the painting to the word that Marullus himself used to describe the return of Caesar. In the painting it seems as though Marullus is impressed by Caesar’s feat. I believe he was just putting up a front while deep down he felt disgusted just looking at caesar in his glory moment.

<span>I hope it helps, Regards.</span>
