Please copy the following notes that are in RED

Mood-- a literary element that evokes certain feelings or vibes in readers through words and descriptions. Usually, mood is referred to as the atmosphere of a literary piece, as it creates an emotional situation that surrounds the readers. Mood can be developed through setting, theme, tone and diction, imagery, etc.

*After we read ACT I, SCENE I, let's use the list of words for mood to describe it and support our choice with a textual example.

Paradox- from a Greek word that means contrary to expectations, existing belief or perceived opinion. It is a statement that appears to be self-contradictory or silly but may include a latent truth (basically, doesn't seem to make sense but it does).  A paradox is often used to make a reader think over an idea in innovative way.

*After we read ACT I, SCENE I, we will attempt to identify the paradox and explain what we think it means/predicts for the reader.

******What is Shakespeare trying to foreshadow in scene i with these two literary devices?****

Notes for drama:
tragedy--presents the downfall of a dignified character who is involved in historically or socially significant events. This fall is usually caused by a flaw in his character.
tragic hero--the main character, dignified who has a downfall based mainly on a poor character trait. He/she evokes both pity and fear in readers because the audience realizes the struggles faced by him are necessary parts of human life.
tragic flaw--whatever is wrong with his character that causes his destruction--usually leads to an error in judgment.
