anastassius [24]

I think that it the second option. The words were borrowed into English along with concepts they describe. Since ballet was developed and refined in France, in order to make it more universal, the concepts and steps were given the French name. This makes it easier for everyone to come together.

Hope that helps!

ESSAY 1:Lady Macbeth, described as a fiend-like queen, is responsible for the deaths ofcountless people. She meets a fitting end
Alexus [3.1K]

Lady Macbeth is extremely ambitious and her desire to be queen is more intense and even irrational. Her ambition leads her to commit terrible acts, which lead to her rise, but it is the same ambition that leads her to fall.

Unlike her husband, she is courageous, focused and incisive, even going away from Christianity, when she asks the spirits to remove any feminine instinct to care and serve from her, as that would take away her proactivity, her intolerance and her ability to go over anyone to achieve the goals you want.

Lady Macbeth is responsible for the murder of King Duncan and for the fall of the kingdom at the hands of her husband. She is also responsible for the desperation and lack of control that Macbeth demonstrates, since it was only because of her that he came to power.

As previously said, it is Lady Macbeth's ambition that leads her to ruin, when frightened by the events and with a strong emotional weight caused by her past actions, she finds herself in an unbearable psychological agony to the point of making her take her own life and walk towards eternal punishment, establishing a great ending for a great villain.

The siblings are shocked, contributing to the theme that  people are not always as they seem.

The siblings are angered after learning about their real  father, contributing to the theme that it is best to be  honest with others.

The brother condemns their mother but the sister  sympathizes with her, contributing to the theme of  forgiving loved ones.

The siblings are shocked but still watch over their  mother, contributing to the theme that it is best to be  loyal to family.

After being raised by the now-deceased woman, who inculcated them a strict code of morality and religiosity to such extent that Marguerite had become a nun and the son a flawless magistrate, this discovery makes them furious, and they angrily leave her.

How did the Cyclops character contradict everything the ancient Greeks thought was important?
FromTheMoon [43]
Ancient Greece thought that hard work was to be rewarded, and government was to be organized and respected. The way Odysseus describes the Cyclops shows that they, as a race, just kind of let things happen. Their crops grow unattended, without being cultivated or cared for, and they have no form of organization or government. They deal with their own problems family to family and don't get involved in each others discipline.
