What language techniques are found in All's Well that Ends Well?
All's Well contains the same kinds of literary figures of speech as any other Shakespeare play: metaphors and similes abound. Check out what Parolles has to say about virginity at the end of I, 1. "Virginity, like an old courtier, wears her cap out of fashion" (simile and personification), "Besides, virginity is peevish, proud, idle, made of self-love . . ." (personification), "Virginity breeds mites, much like a cheese, consumes itself to the very paring, and so dies with feeding his own stomach." (metaphor "breeds mites", simile "like a cheese" and personification "dies with feeding") The play of course contains lots of blank verse as well as passages in prose, and a couple of rhymed songs for the clown to sing. Naturally there are the usual rhetorical devices as well: parallel structures, puns, and so on.
How does shakespeare establish that hamlet is indeed a noble gentleman?
Is he? What is a "noble gentleman"? He is certainly arrogant and holds the people of Denmark in contempt, as witness: 1. "the groundlings, who for the most part are capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb-shows and noise" Read: poor people are stupid. 2. "he's for a jig or a tale of bawdry, or he sleeps" Read: Polonius is a lowbrow; ignore him. 3. "the age is grown so picked that the toe of the peasant comes so near the heel of the courtier he galls his kibe" Read: What! Do these peasants consider themselves even close to being our equals? 4. His whole treatment of Osric. "Let a beast be lord of beasts and his crib shall stand at the king's mess." Read: Just because Osric owns land, don't think he isn't another stupid peasant. 5. His callous murder of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. "They are not near my conscience; their defeat does by their own insinuation grow." Read: Sure, I'll kill the messenger. He deserves it for being a messenger. An aristocratic gentleman, surely, but noble? Not in my books.
