I think it would be 3-anagnorisis because he discovered that he unknowingly killed the King/his biological father (who in the myth knew he would be killed by his son while the son married his mother) and swore before that, that if he ever found the murderer of the late king, he would stab out their eyes. The queen, when she discovered it, was overwhelmed by grief and suicides in the myth<span />

In at least 150 words, discuss the changes that occur in John Proctor’s character, from the beginning of the play to the end.
poizon [28]
There were many changes in the book the crucible in the character John Proctor but the ones that stands out the most are these:
John Proctor at the beginning of the book tells his wife about the affair, his wife retaliates by hating him for it. Abigail (whom he had the affair with) falls in love with him and is emotionally and physically out of her mind. She tries everything in her power to get him back to her. But Proctor refuses to give in. This infuriates Abigail causing her to start accusing everyone along with the help of other teenagers of being a witch. That many people includes John Proctors wife. Seeing that the only way that John could stop Abigail, he confesses to the court of the affair between him and Abigail but the plan is short lived when His wife tells the court that he has never cheated on her. At the end he is accused of being a witch by Mary and then he begins to give a false confession of being a witch which fails and he winds up dying at the end of a rope. So you see there were many changes in his character but all of them led to his downfall!

In at least one hundred words, explain why Animal Farm was NOT an initial success in Britain?​
AleksandrR [38]

Answer and explanation:

Animal Farm was not an initial success in Britain because of the critics it represented. The author, George Orwell, wrote it during the Second World War. In the novel <u>Orwell criticizes soviet leader Iósif Stalin and Russian’s totalitarianism.</u> During that time, Britain and Russia were allies and no one wanted to be attached to a criticism of Russia.

In addition, George Orwell was a Trotskyist, which emphasized that he did not support Stalin. Publishers did not take that risk and rejected the novel.

In 1945 the novel was finally published by Frederic Warburg, but it was not known by the public until late 1950s.
