The characters in Aeschylus’ Agamemnon create only fear and no pity in each other and in the audience.’ How far do you agree with this statement? I agree with this statement to a certain extent‚ however‚ I think it does not represent the whole of the Agamemnon. I think that what invokes pity‚ are events‚ rather than characters‚ that have preceded the play. There are mixes of passive and fearsome characters in the Agamemnon. Clytemnestra and Aegisthus are an example of fearsome characters‚ when

First World War increased rather than narrowed Germany’s political division’ How far do you agree with this judgement? Although initially it seems apparent that the First World War narrowed the existing political divisions in Germany during this period‚ as the war progressed‚ the resentment grew‚ in part because of the huge losses and the economic crisis that hung over the country. Therefore because of this the political divisions increased‚ and by the end of the war the polarisation

Not only were they disgruntled by this‚ but also Alexandra’s close friendship to Rasputin‚ a Serbian peasant. This particularly
