Best Answer

Scar is motivated primarily by his desire for the throne. In this respect, he most clearly resembles Richard in Richard III, a play which The Lion King resembles much more strongly than Hamlet. Claudius is also motivated by his genuine and caring love for his sister-in-law, who reciprocates his love. Scar is not. Claudius also proves to be an astute and wise king, as shown in his handling of the Fortinbras situation, to say nothing of his diplomacy in dealing with Laertes. He would like to get rid of Hamlet, who causes nothing but trouble for him, but Hamlet will not stay away (totally unlike Simba), and Claudius cannot overtly threaten him because of Gertrude, a factor which does not apply to Scar.

What are the differences and similarities between assumptions and stereotypes?

A conclusion without empirical evidence or physical proof and a conviction with some basis (though not necessarily accurate) are the respective differences between assumptions and stereotypes. A belief which does not recognize individual differences but instead seeks generalizations (though not necessarily correct) is a similarity between assumptions and stereotypes.


Are there any subplots on The Lion King?

I may not be interpreting "episodes" correctly however it may interest you that the Lion King holds many strong parallels to Shakespeare's "Hamlet". If you are not familiar with Hamlet yet, I recommend you read the plot summary available on spark notes. Hamlet Hamlet King of Denmark: Killed by his brother Claudius Claudius: Killed his brother and married his widow to become King. Gertrude: Married Claudius after death of her husband (unaware that it was a murder) Hamlet the Younger: Broods and withdraws because of grief The Ghost: Ghost of Hamlet the Elder visits his son to tell him of the betrayal and murder. Only when his murderer is dead will the ghost be at peace and he beseeches Hamlet the Younger to discover the sinister plots that have come to pass. The Lion King Mufasa: Killed by his brother Scar Scar: Killed his brother and is close to Sirabi, the widow of Mufasa Sirabi: Doesn't know that Scar murdered her husband and is obligated to him as the Alpha Female Simba: Runs away driven by guilt and grief Mufasa's Ghost: Tells Simba to "Remember who [he is]" and motivates him to return to pride rock to restore balance There are more in-depth analysis' available however I hope you found this comparison useful. Best of luck!

What are some differences between impromptu and extemporaneous speeches?

Impromptu speeches are given with little to no preparation, while extemporaneous speeches are delivered with some degree of preparation and research. In impromptu speeches, speakers rely more on their ability to think on their feet, whereas in extemporaneous speeches, speakers have more time to organize their thoughts and structure their arguments.
