Which characteristic of modernist writing is not apparent in the poem Heat by H.D. - Hilda Doolittle?
The poem "Heat" (1919) does not display any of the sense of discontinuity present in much of the contemporary Modernist poetry.
Did the audience participate in the globe theatre performances 1700?
Yes. The audience was much more rowdy back in Shakespearean times and was common for the audience to proclaim that they could do better and climb up on stage.
Why are highwaymen romantic?
They weren't they were actually ruthless. They caused much bloodshed. The image of highwaymen being romantic was potrayed through poetry and stories. However it doesn't mean it was truthful.
When did William Shakespeare get inspired?
The idea that writers sit around waiting to be "inspired" is a very romantic one. Professional writers set aside time and write every day. They do not wait to be "inspired". If you check out the way writers like P.G. Wodehouse or Ernest Hemingway worked it was like this. We do not know very much about Shakespeare's work habits when writing, but we do know that he was a professional writer who earned his living partly through his writing, and that because he was also a professional actor with rehearsals and performances to attend, he had only limited time to write in. This suggests that the romantic idea of him writing when the inspiration hit is not accurate. If your question really means "Where did Shakespeare get the ideas for his plays?" the answer is that he got them from books he had read of history and Italian stories as well as from older plays he had seen and perhaps acted in. Very few of Shakespeare's stories were really original; the originality was in the way he told them.
What does holding for laughs mean?
An actor holds his movement or next line until the laugh from the audience evoked by the previous moment subsides. Holding for laughs is important in live comedy as the next line will be lost in the laughter. That is, the audience will not hear the line. It is also important to give the audience time to laugh. If actors routinely "step on laughs" the audience will stop laughing for fear of missing something. Such an audience doesn't have nearly as much fun.

Modernist writers couldn't make assumptions about their readers because?
Modernist writers couldn't make assumptions about their readers because they believed in the fragmentation of experience and the need to challenge traditional literary conventions. This led to more ambiguous and complex narratives that required active engagement from the reader to interpret and make meaning from the text. The shift towards subjective perspectives and non-linear storytelling meant that writers could not assume a passive or uniform audience response.
What are the fundemental values of modernism?
Modernism covers a large number of writers, and a large geographical area (most of the innovative writers from both Europe and the US who established themselves later than about 1890 will come under the heading 'Modernist' for at least some of their output); there isn't really any single 'fundamental' value of modernism, it is more a general way of approaching writing. That said: 1) almost all 'modernist' writers prefer to use natural language over literary forms (traditionalist writers as late as 1900 were still using 'thee', 'goeth', 'where'er', 'alas' in poetry - modernists try to write the way people actually talk: 'you', 'goes', 'wherever') 2) similarly, a modernist usually writes about the world he knows, not some old-fashioned fantasy world (traditionalist Alfred Dumas wrote about musketeers who rode around on steeds and fought with swords; modernist Emile Zola wrote about women who were married to rich factory-owners, and committed adultery) 3) as modernism takes hold (mainly after World War I) you increasingly see modernist authors having strong political or social ideas. Traditional authors like Dumas or Balzac were mainly interested in producing books which would sell well, and that the audience would enjoy reading. Modernist writers were more likely to want to write books that 'made people think'. Many early modernist writers were sympathetic to Fascism (Yeats, Pound, Marinetti), later there were more Socialist modernists (Brecht, Dos Passos). There was no special political orientation that made you a modernist, but modernists were much more likely to have political messages in their work than more traditional writers.
Modernist writers couldn't make assumptions about their readers because of?
the increasing diversity and fragmentation of their audiences due to urbanization, industrialization, and the various social, political, and cultural upheavals of the time. This made it challenging for modernist writers to predict their readers' backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, leading them to abandon traditional narrative techniques and experiment with new forms of expression.

What are the characteristics of classical poetry?
One of the problems with defining 'classical' poetry is that the term is used to mean two very different things. All the poetry of the Greeks and Romans is called Classical, but there are not really any common characteristics to such a varied canon of work. The other use of the term 'Classical' is to distinguish the main movement in European writing between the end of Renaissance Humanism and the beginning of the Romantic Movement. These writers are also called Augustans, and in French they run from about Ronsard to about Chateaubriand, in English from probably Dryden to Coleridge. In this sense, Classical writers tend to focus on social issues, where Romantic writers tend to foreground the individual. Pope writes about the literary scene in London (the Dunciad), whereas Wordsworth writes about going for a lonely walk and finding some daffodils. Classical writers tend to overvalue clear and precise thinking (Pope's Essay on Criticism), Romantic writers are more interested in dreamstates (Coleridge' Ancient Mariner). At a formal level, Classical writers favour strict metres (almpst all Dryden's important work is in heroic couplets) where Romantic writers prefer free rhythms (Wordsworth's Ode on the Intimations of Mortality). It is difficult to say exactly what the difference between a Classical and a Romantic writer is, but once you have a feel for the distinction it is easy to make. Much as it is difficult to say what the difference is between a crooner and a rockstar - but Bing Crosby doesn't sound anything like Michael Jackson.
