Can you please check if the following statements are correct? Thank you.
1.Antony uses a rhetoric language.
2.He makes a comparison (draws a parallel) between his uncle and his father.
3.Hamlet refers to Claudius as a pickpocket of the Empire since he took the crown and put it in his pocket.
4.The Vice was usually represented as a clown. He wore the traditional dress made of different coloured scraps of cloth.
5.Hamlet isn’t sure if his uncle really killed his father. (instead of the usual: he wonders whether Claudius killed his father or not.)
6.Brutus compares political power to a series of images: to an adder, that is a poisonous snake, than to a sting, which may cause danger and eventually, to an ambitious man climbing a ladder. (Is it correct to use the colon to introduce a list of items?)
7.Claudius behaves like (or as ?) a king who apparently takes care of his people though he is just a murderer.
8.Try to make your last three clauses into three separate sentences (?)
9.Your last three clauses are obscure and needs to be rewritten (or reformulated?)
10.Antony doesn’t believe in Brutus’s speech (?) and he charges (?) Brutus to have killed Caesar to get the crowd’s approval. (??)
1. I don't know what "a rhetoric language" is, sorry. =(
2 and 5 -- Dump the parentheses stuff.
6. Use of the colon here is correct. Shouldn't "than" be "then"? Use semicolons to separate the items in the series, since each item also has a comma in it.
7. like
9. "need" not "needs" (plural subject)
10. Antony doesn't believe Brutus's speech, and he charges that Brutus killed Caesar to get the crowd's approval.
1. To check if the statement is correct, we need to analyze whether Antony uses rhetoric language in his speech. To do so, we would need to study Antony's speech and identify any rhetorical devices used, such as repetition, parallelism, or appeals to emotions.
2. Similarly, to verify if Antony draws a parallel between his uncle and his father, we would need to examine Antony's speech and identify any instances where he compares the two individuals.
3. To confirm whether Hamlet refers to Claudius as a pickpocket of the Empire, we need to reference the specific lines or scenes in the play where this comparison is made.
4. To determine if the Vice was typically represented as a clown wearing a traditional dress made of different colored scraps of cloth, we would need to research the history and characteristics of the Vice character in medieval or Renaissance theater.
5. To check if Hamlet is uncertain about his uncle killing his father, we would need to examine the relevant scenes and dialogues in the play to find any indications of doubt or questioning.
6. Regarding the use of a colon to introduce a list of items in Brutus's comparison, it depends on the context. If the comparison is crafted as a complete sentence prior to the colon, then it would be appropriate to use a colon to introduce the subsequent list of items.
7. To assess whether Claudius behaves like a king who takes care of his people even though he is a murderer, we need to analyze Claudius's actions and dialogues throughout the play to see if there are instances of him showing concern for his subjects while also acknowledging his guilt as a killer.
8. In order to make the last three clauses into separate sentences, they could be rewritten as follows:
- Antony does not believe in Brutus's speech.
- Antony charges Brutus with having killed Caesar to gain the crowd's approval.
9. To address the statement suggesting that the last three clauses are obscure and in need of rewriting, it would be helpful to have specific details about which clauses are being referred to. Without the context, it is challenging to provide a precise response.
10. To confirm Antony's beliefs about Brutus's speech and his accusation that Brutus killed Caesar for the crowd's approval, we would need to analyze Antony's words and actions in the play to find evidence of his beliefs and charges towards Brutus.
