Develop a clear thesis statement based on your comparison of the print version and the film. (You will base the presentation you create in the next task on the same thesis statement.) Using your notes, find textual evidence that supports your thesis statement. In this case, textual evidence can include not only quotations from characters in either the play or movie, but also notes about the setting, stage directions, organization, characters, tone, and mood. Consider the following questions before you create the thesis statement: Which details of the setting or the characters' actions in the film version are not spelled out in the print version of the play? How does the depiction of the scene in the film compare with the print version? Which details are consistent with the text version? How well does the film version capture the tone and mood of the text version? Does the film adaptation reflect a sense of suspense or mystery?

? ? what can you explain this to me i am so confused

the original because it was the first to be created which means it is most likely to be tried the hardest. meaning the actors tried their hardest to make it right because shakespeare was so famous.

hope this : )

awnser:

the thousand and one nights – or, as i prefer to call them in the following forpurely practical reasons: the arabian nights – as we perceive them three hundredyears after antoine galland’s epochal french adaptation bear a distinct arabicimprint. meanwhile, the commonly accepted model for their textual historyacknowledges various stages in the conceptualization and effective formation ofboth the collection’s characteristic frame story and the embedded repertoire. thevast majority of tales in the preserved manuscripts of the nights has beenintegrated into the collection during two periods of arabic influence, the so-calledbaghdad and cairo periods (gerhardt 1963: 115–374). these “arabic” stages arepreceded by an iranian version, probably dating to pre-islamic times, which in itsturn profits from both structural devices and narrative contents originating fromindian tradition. considering the eminent position that iran and iranian culturehold in the early stages of the textual history of the arabian nights, surprisinglyfew details are known concerning the collection’s relation to and its actualposition within the iranian cultural context. in the following, i will discuss linksbetween the arabian nights and iranian culture on several levels. in surveyingthese links, i will treat five major areas: (1) the iranian prototype of the nights; (2) tales of alleged persian origin; (3) persian characters within the tales; (4)persian translations of the arabian nights; and (5) the position of the arabiannights in modern iran
