What metaphor does Haemon use in 'Antigone'?
A stiff versus a flexible tree in a storm and a taut versus a slackened sail on a voyage are the metaphors that Haemon uses in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon advises that one uncompromising opinion is insufficient to rule an entire city. He brings up the example of trees that survive a storm because their branches go with the flow. He also cites the example of a voyager who reaches a destination by adjusting the sail to environmental conditions.
What did A G Gardiner write on Habits?
The London newspaper editor A.G.Gardiner once wrote an interesting article on how useful or troublesome habits can be to a man. His argument is that helpful habits can be cultivated. He usually spent long hours with a pencil in his hand. The pencil had become a part of his organism. Pencil promoted his thoughts. It became his favourite weapon with which he wrote fluently. A pencil was as stimulating to him as his sword was to Artagnan, the fighting hero in the novel, or as his cheroot was to Grant, the U.S.President. One morning Gardiner tried writing an article without a pencil, but with a pen. His mental mechanism failed and the pen won't move. He had thought his pen would jump like a horse but it remained as obstinate as a mule. However hard he tried, the pen could not be moved. He thought he was Stevenson in the story riding his mule Modestine which would not move. The habit of using a pencil had become such strong in him that a pen became of no use to him. Habits can cause failure in life as well as success. Gardiner cites a cruel joke played by Walter Scott on a classmate. The boy was First in the class whom Scott rivalled. The boy always answered questions fingering a button on his jacket. Scott cleverly removed this button and the boy became a failure not only in the class but later in his life also. This poor fellow early took to drinking and died of consumption. Most of us are bundles of habits neatly done up in a coat and trousers. But habits should be a stick that we use, not a crutch to lean on. Bad habits should be thrown away and good habits cultivated. Gardiner had a problem of finding his coat and hat when he left his club. So he cultivated the habit of hanging them always in a particular peg or the one nearest to it. It worked and solved his problem.
Where did shakespeare go after leaving his family?
Like most questions about Shakespeare's life, we don't really know the answer. Here are some suggestions: 1. Some historians have speculated that William and Anne may have lived with William's parents at Henley Street, Stratford. 2. Germaine Greer, in her excellent biography of Anne Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Wife, says that it was a firm rule that if a couple was to live together, they needed their own place to live. She cites as a possibility that, although they were married, Will lived with his parents and Anne with hers until they were able to get their own place. 3. Alternatively, Greer suggests that they could have afforded to rent the cheapest form of hovel (a cottage). This would make them similar to most other poor and newly married couples.
