If the author wanted to add a paragraph about how one of Shakespeare’s last plays, The Winter’s Tale, is filled with unrealistic moments and almost nonsensical stage directions, what section would this information go into MOST smoothly and appropriately?

The Winter's Tale, more of Romance than a tragedy or comedy, talks about repentance, jealousy and lot of imagination which is far from reality.

Explanation:

This play is one of the last plays that Shakespeare has written. In this play where the king is showed to be jealous and revengeful of everything that he experiences with his daughter.

This play can be called unrealistic, nonsensical may be because of the usage of words that are old/antique for the time it has been written. This play can be placed into the genre of healthy relationship/reconstruction of happy family/unity that prevails. This is because of the father and daughter coming together at the end, where unlike other stories of Shakespeare, it is one of those happy endings.

The information that we add in view of the above can be another addition to this play where readers can understand the depth of these themes used in the play.  

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
