...A Midsummer Night's Dream Genre Comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream is a classic example of Shakespearean comedy. What, you don't believe us? We'll prove it to you. We've got a checklist that details all the typical conventions and features of the genre so you can see for yourself: Light, humorous tone: Check. The play features fairy magic (like Oberon's love potion), silly pranks (like the transformation of a guy's head into that of a jackass), and the botched performance of a play-within-the-play by a bunch of wannabe actors. Need we say more? Clever dialogue and witty banter: Check. Shakespeare is a huge fan of punning and snappy wordplay, so naturally, his characters know how to get their witty repartee on. Shakespeare reserves some of the best dialogue for his warring lovers, especially Oberon and Titania, and even the "rude mechanicals" manage to wow us with their clever banter. Deception and disguise: Let's see…Hermia and Lysander try to sneak away from Athens to elope (behind Egeus's back). Also, Titania and the young lovers have no idea they've been drugged by Oberon and his magic love juice. So, check. Mistaken identity: Check. Sort of. In most of Shakespeare's other comedies, someone usually runs around in a disguise to mask his or her identity. (Sometimes, a lover is even tricked into sleeping with the wrong person by mistake.) This isn't necessarily the case in A Midsummer Night's Dream, unless we count the fact that the love juice causes Titania to fall head...

...Rhetorical Terms/Devices Figurative language is the generic term for any artful deviation from the ordinary mode of speaking or writing. It is what makes up a writer’s style – how he or she uses language. The general thinking is that we are more likely to be persuaded by rhetoric that is interesting, even artful, rather than mundane. When John F. Kennedy said, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country” (an example of anastrophe), it was more interesting – and more persuasive – than the simpler, “Don’t be selfish.” Indeed, politicians and pundits use these devices to achieve their desired effect on the reader or listener nearly every time they speak. The stylistic elements in a piece of writing work to produce a desired effect related to the text’s (and author’s) purpose, and thus reveals the rhetorical situation. In classical rhetoric, figures of speech are divided into two main groups: Schemes — Deviation from the ordinary pattern or arrangement of words (transference of order). Tropes — Deviation from the ordinary and principal meaning of a word (transference of meaning). *Important Note: Words marked with an asterisk* are words for which it would be impossible for you to write 3 examples for your weekly vocabulary assignment. In those cases, please write only the definition, in your own words, and the rhetorical uses/effect of that device, or do what you are instructed to do under those words. Please mark these words that deviate...

The city is considered to have existed in 4000 BC and is thought to be one of the first cities of humanity. The searchers underlined that Uruk was divided into several areas: governors were separated from the craftsmen and traders. In this way, we see that since almost the beginning, traders are put together and parked apart from the rest of society. In this first part, we will answer these questions: why was trading an activity mainly done by foreigners...

Résumé On est au XVIIe siècle dans le salon du bourgeois Orgon. Madame Pernelle, sa mère, s'apprête à quitter la maison et reproche à sa belle-fille et à ses petits-enfants leurs habitudes mondaines, alors qu'Orgon a accueilli chez lui un dévot personnage du nom de Tartuffe, dont, prétend-elle, tous feraient bien de suivre l'exemple. Chacun s'indigne de ces propos : Tartuffe est un hypocrite, un misérable aventurier, qui, sous prétexte de religion, exerce un pouvoir tyrannique sur la maison. Cléante lui-même, le beau-frère d'Orgon, approuve. De la conversation qu'il tient avec la servante Dorine, nous apprenons qu'Orgon manifeste un véritable culte à Tartuffe. Revenu de voyage, Orgon, ne pensant pas à ses enfants, s'inquiète de la santé de Tartuffe, ne prête même pas attention à la mention qui lui est faite des malheurs de sa femme. Comme Cléante le lui reproche, il...
