Favorite Learned Thing

My favorite thing we did this semester was acting out Shakespeare. It was so much fun to read lines, figure out how to portray them, and then give a scene in front of the whole class. On top of its thrill, acting helped me understand and remember Shakespeare so much more than i ever thought i could! It made me enjoy Shakespeare more and have a deeper understanding. When i would re-read lines and think about each character it made me see certain characters in different lights and even both at once. I also liked seeing the other choices my friends made and how they see the characters. The acting was such a relief and a great way to learn Shakespeare. I really hope we can act more because it was indeed my favorite learned thing!

Performance Choices

The performance choices in our class were quite interesting and ranged from a sweet king to a mean king and a loving queen to a selfish queen and a quiet hamlet to a loud hamlet. Ryan and I choice to have Ryan be a sweet king and me a loving queen. Ryan seeming sweet actually proves more to claudius's wicked and deceitful nature. Also my sarcastic remarks as hamlet show my reluctance to be disciplined and sweet son. And be being a sweet queen displays gertrudes deep care and concern for hamlet's well-being. The performance by Ella izzy and had was my favorite because of ellas ability to stay stern and izzys and hads chemistry with Ella! Good job!!

T.S. Eliot

We are all marked for death, from birth. So what shall we do with the time we have here? Eliot tries to create this isolated and solem wisdom with brilliant techniques. Eliot's use of stream of consciousness respresents both his hesitation and his inner-chaos. His many unanswerable questions challange life and the audience itself. His juxtaposition of clashing points helps to emphasize them even more for ex: trivializing and grandizing. The use of Biblical references add to his strong and powerful emotions within him. In short, there is a confusion and inner turmoil that haunts Eliot and it's almost unescapable as it is human condition itself. Mankind is at war with himself and man is shattered- the only way beyond this, beyond the human condition towards wholeness is death.

Explain Important Words!

"To be or not to be"
-Here, Hamlet questions whether to literally BE or to not BE. In short, he is questioning life itself, whether to be alive or not, whether to exists or not, whether to kill himself or not. He questions the thought of whether he should be and live a life full of misery and suffering or to be and endure the suffering in hopes of pleasure and happiness. This is indeed a extremely important and significant quote on Hamlet's side and it also opens up the philisophical question of life itself as well. To be or not to be should be said aloud slowly and each word emphazied specially.
"O, what a noble mind"
-Here, Ophelia is talking about how "noble" or in other words, sane, Hamlets mind used to be. This quote here is one of sadness and regret. She misses and wishes for Hamlets insanity to be gone and longs for his sanity that is almost but vanished. Noble would be the word to better emplify to the crowd, this gives the audience the unfortunate knowledge of insanity Hamlet holds.
"The play's the thing!"
-Here, Hamlet says that the play is the Thing, here this ambigious word- thing- is actaully explained to show the play is the thing- that- will prove that Claudius murdered his father and is guilty. In its ambiguity is explains itself surprisingly and also gives light the the plays text. Play and also Thing should very much be said louder than the other words.
"I took thee for thy better"
-Here, Hamlet tells his mother Gertrude that he mistook her for the better, the King. He is certainly trying to belittle and degrade his mother and he calls her husband the better of her and how unfortunate she is. Thee and Thy should be emphasized to make Hamlets belittlement even worse and meaner.
"Give me some light"
-Here, Claudius calls this towards Hamlet when he stops the play in the middle of the poisoning and instead does not let the play flow and usual but interrupts it. In such a time of death and darkness, this line is ironic as he is calling for light in such a to be dark time. Light would be the word to say aloud loudly to show to audience both the contradiction and the humor!

Figurative Language

Figurative language is the use of words that go beyond just their ordinary concrete meaning. This type of language is very creative, imaginative and includes metaphors, similes, personification, hyperboles, idioms and more. The use of this language helps to emplify the authors work and make a more vivid picture of what he is trying to convey, what his meaning is. Hamlets excessive hyperboles show his insane behavior, double personality and oedipal complex: "My love [for Ophelia] is more than four thousands of men." Indeed, this is just silly but it shows how Hamlet thinks and how he acts based upon those thoughts. Beyond using figerative language to have a rich plot and complelling thriving play, Shakespeare uses this type of language to his advantage to help him describe and show his characters in different lights. He opens up his characters with figerative language and lets it show the meaning of each of them and the central meaning of the play itself!

King and Laertes

After Laertes father Polonius is dead, the King finds strength in manipulating Laertes feelings by attending to him fatherly and lovingly. Laertes at this time, of course, is distraught and vulnerable and the King sees this and knows this and is very much willing to take advantage of this! The King comes to Laertes side - not in compassion but in manipulation, and tries to sooth Laertes with some fatherly advice and fatherly love. On page 802 the King's decietful intentions are revealed: "Good Laertes..../Now you speak/ Like a good child and a true gentlemen." Here, we see the King being TOO friendly, TOO nice and TOO comforting than normal which all points to him trying to decieve Laertes for the Kings own well being. And, in Laertes condition after losing a father and also just being young and naive the King has a upper hand on him and Laertes falls into the trap of the Kings manipulation all too easily. With no one to guide him anymore, no one to tell him right from wrong, or safe from danger Laertes falls into the hands of the King- which may SEEM good but they are all bad.

Hamlet & Mommie

Hamlet and his mother Gertrude have a very complex and unconventional relationship. Hamlet constantly belittles his mother emotionally but skillfully as well. This constant degrade on his mother and full raged anger sheds light on some interesting theories: the oedipal complex. Some could argue that Hamlet is very enraged with his mother because deep down he actaully has hidden sexual feelings for his mother- ones that he so very wants to pursue but society and the human condition have prohibited. Another is that Hamlet is upset for his mothers betrayal of Hamlets biological father- the betrayal would lie in Gertrude getting married so quickly after her husband died. And finally another theory could be that Hamlet seeks attention from his mother but does not find it since Claudius takes Gertrude away from him. On page 785 we see there complex relationship revealed: "You are the queen, your husband's brother's wife; /And- would if were not so! - you are my mother." Here, we see that Hamlet is certainly degrading his mother skillfully by attacking the fact that she remarried in such circumstances!

Sounds

Sounds are very important on making a poems attitude tone and meaning! In sounds are styles and structures such as rhyme, meter, form, and poetic syntax. They each add different things to the musical quality of poetry. Others such as alliteration, enjambment, caesura, assonance, and especially onomatoepoeia. Now the sounds in the poem connect very closely to the meaning of the poem!! In hamlet, the exaggerated 0h! And Fe Fi! Add emotion to the story of hamlets journey. The ghost in hamlet speaks in blank verse which adds emphasis to who the ghost is and how he acts. Sounds cannot be ignored because although they go undetected sometimes they are very important to themes and meanings!

P2 OF: The Light and Dark of Polonius: A Twisted Journey Into the Unknown

Polonius fears loss of control and hence decieves others through disloyalty, insincerity, and lies in order to better control them. According to the infamous Macheavallian principles "deception is superior to legality in effectively controlling them." Here, Polonius sees power in deception and plays others in order to gain an upper hand on situations. Decpetion is a tricky thing and a complex order. It is a truism that some want to deviece you, some want to get decieved by you, some want to use you and some want to get used by you. Indeed, Hamlet opens the audience to this unfortuante part of the human condition. The uncertainty in reality is almost overbearing and Polonius feeds off of this. For him, class function dictates his motivations to spy on his family, Hamlet, and help the King: "What might you think? No, i went round to work;/And my young mistress thus i did bespeak:/'Lord Hamlet is a prince, out of thy star' (i.ii.iii). As Polonius pretentiously quotes himself, he reveals his true self of a fool. Moreover, Polonius is trying to hard to impress the King and Queen through witty speech and intellectual conversation- yet his attempts to try so hard at this world of persona almost make it SEEM like he knows he needs to compensate for his doubts and ignorance. One must look beyond the mask of deceit in order to still see who Polonius is, an old fool. Polonius's foolishness shines when he has the audacity to use his own daughter as a pawn in his game of decpetion: "That show of such an excersie may colour/your lonliness. We are oft to blame in this,-/'Tis too much prov'd" (i.ii.iii). He willingly pushes Ophelia into part of the system, the spying maching, and makes her spy on Hamlet. As inappropraite as this is for a father, we see something important in his horrid actions, a symbol of property. Ophelia is clearly seen by her father as mere property with which he can USE to gain higher status with the King and Queen. Moreover, although Polonius is with the King, he still cannot help himself from using wordy, long-winded sentences giving way to prove even more of his stupidity. Indeed, Polonius gives both the actors and the audience a certain king of enlightenment to humanity's flaws and deciets. Hamlet forces both to come to acknolwege who are we decieving and why? And even before one may ask that question, it first must be addressed: what are deceiveing to ourselves? The uncertainty of reality will forever remain, as human condition causes humanity to blind itself to the biggest and scarest truisms.

Symbolism and The Second Coming

Literary texts contain symbolism in pretty much everything. From objects to places to characters to settings to themes- everything contains a symbol- and even a symbol within a symbol. Just like in every day life each symbol works by association to a certain context. In novels this context would supply to the whole meaning. In the Second Coming the falcon works as a symbol towards the cycle of life, the cycles of history and how it is in one way- a circle. It happens over again, repeating itself forever, infinitely. This symbol relates the life as a whole and gives rise to a deeper meaning- one that each individual will determine for themselves. As in Austen's Pride and Prejudice, symbolism plays a large role in helping her give way to her main points. The furniture, the costumes, the characters- they're all symbols- each one feeding off of each other and each one as significantly important!

Essay

The Light and Dark of Polonius: A Twisted Journey Into the Unknown

In Hamlet by William Shakespeare, there is a constant battle between reality and appearance that gives rise to the display of Polonius’s true character towards the audience. The theme of uncertainty highlights the drastically different speech pattern of Polonius as he changes character when he is in private with equals and public with superiors. Indeed, Polonius, a pompous yet foolish man displays his stupidity in private, yet possesses a certain SEEMING virtuous persona in public. It is through his conniving repetitious words, predominance of speech, complex syntax and detailed language that distinguishes his true character from his seeming self.

In private, Polonius shows his world of dominancy and foolishness towards his children in long-winded and monotonous speeches. In a wordy and repetitious tangent Polonius gives his infamous advice to his son Laertes:

Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice;

Take each man’s censure, but reserve thy           

judgment.

Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,

But not express’d in fancy; rich, not gaudy.

Not only is too much advice bad advice, Polonius’s words do not matter. Indeed, he may seem to trust Laertes, but it is all a facade, as Polonius will soon deceitfully spy on Laertes for the honor of King Claudius. Polonius’s sneaky character seems to show the audience that appearance can indeed be deceiving and there is much more that meets the eye. Polonius predominance of speech can display a profound need to control his family- that gives rise to how badly Polonius wants to be seen in public. Yet, wouldn’t he need to be hiding something unfavorable to try so hard? What is he masking that cannot be shown? To be sure, it is this suspicious and dominant character that displays the illegitimacy of appearance and reality and how so easily it can be morphed. 

OUTLINE:

P1: PRIVATE : POLONIUS'S EQUALS - Ophelia, Laertes, Ron

P2: PUBLIC : POLONIOUS'S SUPERIORS- King, Queen, Royalty

P3: SYNTAX, REPETITION, PATTERNS, THEMES, MEANINGS, AND LANGUAGES

Figurative Languange

Figurative language is a language that goes past just the literal and into metaphors, similes, personifications, hyperboles, exaggerations, alliterations, straw-mans, and on and on. This language is a great way for the writer to produce a vivid and powerful image for their meaning. These words provide meaning in themselves and give an emotional response that ordinary words couldn't do. The language opens up an idea and leads the reader to interpretation of their own. The language is playful and easy to get carried away with into a world of tasteful or untasteful words. But, its up for the reader to decide. Their effect is important and their meaning more important, but its the way we view and think about the world that establishes these relationships among different objects, things, and ideas. This is an elaborate language and is often used to strengthen the writers ideas and support, to evoke emotions of depth, and to invite the reader into meaning. In Pride and Prejudice, Austen uses metaphors and hyperboles to strengthen her argument against certain people and create them as fools. Her metaphors not only display certain follies but highlight and exasterbate them further. We are opened up to her world through figurative language and we even begin to possess certain feelings so close and known to Austen herself. Her words helped up get closer to her meaning as well as adding richness to her story.

Setting

The setting in plays is different because you must consider the physical setting as well. A setting much be realistic and appropriate to create. In Pride and Prejudice, Austen sets up the setting for a Victorian style set- traditional and conventional dressing, furniture, and atmosphere. This setting is so fundamental to Austen's argument. Although it may seem like a mundane, minute detail - it truly makes up half of Austen's  complex story. Her setting added a true reality to the suffocating principles of her time and truly gave the reader a sense of time- which is extremely important. The plot and characters are intertwined with the setting and they feed off of each other to support Austen's main themes and points. Also, Austen was so detailed in describing her settings- and this was not unintentional. It adds a certain taste, interpretation and imagination that extends the story further to expose Austen's inner workings and struggles. The information in the setting is something the playwright must think about for it creates a mental image that can be built upon for an honest design.

Hamlet, Prince of Denmark

There has been a constant struggle between conformity and rebellion in which heroes like Hamlet will rise above mundane expectations and transform to higher princibles. Through choas and deception in the play Hamlet by Williams Shakespeare, Hamlet finds the line between appearance vs. reality. Hamlet struggles constantly "to be or not to be" and through the many puns, solioquies, and attitudes in his speech pattern we see a  rebellious side of Hamlet. Indeed, the speech patterns in the Ghost and Hamlet possess comparisons in uncontrolled emotions of rage and passion while also exemplifying their differences of a serious vs. sweet personality. Also, these similarities and differences feed off of each other intensifying these emotions even more!

Outline:
P2: Public : Hamlet vs. Ghost
Including: diction and tone, levity of manner of speech, personality, puns and jokes of seems*
P3: Private : Hamlet vs. Ghost
Including: audiences, emotion, diction, traits, reality
P4: Including the final : appearance vs. reality and final meaning of the former motif

Ghost & Hamlet

The speech pattern of Hamlet and the Ghost have many similarities and both highlight each other. In terms of Hamlet, his speech seems to be completely controlled by his passionate emotions of hate, rage, love, fear, anger, sadness, and so on. His emotions seem to control him more than he can control them and he comes off as a kind of hot-blooded youth. Also, as a side note, for this comparison i'm going to have to ignore Hamlet's other-side - intelligent and calm in his soliloquies for the sake of my argument. However, i grant and acknowledge this side of Hamlet. Now continuing on, the Ghost (which is Hamlet's dead father) displays both the passion and lack of control Hamlet has in his speech too. His father show a certain amount of rage and revenge in his voice as he demands : "Revenge his foul and most unnatural murder." Indeed, it seems that his father is just as emotionally invested as Hamlet is- and the uncertainty and shakiness of his father mirrors that of Hamlet's speech patterns. Emotion and memory seem to cloud both Hamlet and his fathers speech patterns and their similarities in this both highlight and even more intensify this. Also, although Hamlet is well educated and a sweet boy - his want for revenge and rage seem to take over more and he almost loses himself in this and meeting with the Ghost only worsen these feelings as both their rages feed off of each other.

Character

Character certainly goes along with plot; the character in the plot can either be the protagonist or antagonist. During the course of the plot, the characters begin to grow and evolve - which in turn structure and evolve the plot itself- again as you can see, the plot and character are intertwined. Moreover, characters fall into two categories : flat or round. Round characters usually have complex emotions and stories whereas flat characters only possess a few traits. A common flat character would be a FOIL. Foil is where the plot involves two characters that are completely different- and in this, they can both emphasize their own traits by comparison to the different traits of the other foil. Now, direct and indirect characterization are important too. Direct is when the author comes out and tells us what the character is like, in terms of motivations, background, and appearance. Indirect would be the author telling us indirectly who they are in terms of motivation, background and appearance through showing. An example would be Mr. Bennet in Pride and Prejudice. As the plot starts off, we see Mr.Bennet as just a father figure who seems to laugh at all the follies and silliness in his life. However through both indirect characterization and as the plot and character starts to develop and evolve we see that there is more to the story. Mr.Bennet becomes to be seen as more and more of a faulty, bad father who indulges in his family rather than help his father. Indeed, as this happens and changes are attitude changes towards him too.

Hamlet

Shakespeare employs different mannerisms and voices within each character that give meaning to each person and represent heavy symbols. For instance, Shakespeare gives a certain language/voice to Hamlet that displays his sorrow and bitterness. He often seems to be full of hatred and making sarcastic remarkes towards both the King and Queen: his dad and mom. Now, the King seems quite opposite of Hamlet - cold and calculating- where Hamlet often seems full of passion. Indeed, the King is ambitious, but seeks more in politics than does he in his own family - he mistreats Hamlet and disregards his mournings (a clear sign of heartlessness). Yet the Queen shows great love for both her son and husband, yet, she seems weak and shallow- whereas the King seems strong and certain. Also, Horatio, a friend of Hamlet is shown as very loyal to Hamlet through his helpful actions. In Hamlet lies massive and beautiful paradoxes that give way to a deeper meaning- one i've yet to find, but will hopefully give way deeper into this work.

Slam Dunk Hook & Fast Break

To compare and contrast Slam Dunk Hook & Fast Break it would be better (at least for me) to address them item by item, element by element rather than poem by poem. I would address the contrast movement, the imagery used to convey the sence of the game, the use of diction (passion vs. grace), the attitude each speaker hold towards the basketball game, different perspectives, slow pace vs. quick pace, reflection vs. in the moment. It would be very important to recreate the actual experiences each author held towards the game when writing. Moreover, it would be brilliant to reflect the rhymes of each poem- giving a choppiness and then fluidness when presenting each analysis. Finally, the syntax and imagery each speaker presents works to give a different attitude, a different mood and ultimately a different meaning.

Plot

Plot is defined as what happens in a narrative. So, a series of events need to take place in order to create a believable relationship - this includes the exposition that gives background information and then leads to the rising action that begins to build on that background information. Then a climax occurs that has emotional tension leading into the falling action where the conflict gets resolved. Finally, the denouement happens where the conflict is restored and the reader is off to ponder the possible meanings of what came before on his or her own. In Pride & Prejudice, the exposition provides us with information on the relationships each character has and also what kind of relationship they individually hold with the world. For example, we see how Liz sees everyone and also how everyone sees her. The rising action occurs when these relationships begin to develop and get more complex and the characters stories intertwine. The climax occurs when Darcy proposes to Liz and the falling action is when she denies. However, when the denouement comes, Liz finally accepts his proposal and all is restored and the conflict resolved. Now, in Alice in Wonderland (the book i've chosen to read), the author provides us with the exposition of Alice- she's in her own world metaphorically first and we see how disconnected her relationships are with those she is around. The rising action begins when Alice falls into a world of her own literally now and she begins to explore. Then the climax occurs when Alice meets her enemy- the Queen of Hearts and she must go through a trial in Wonderland, in where she finally wakes up from the "sham" of Wonderland. Finally, the denouement provides the audience with relief as we see that it was, in fact, all a dream...(Or was it?)

Kumin and Stafford

Kumin and Stafford both present descriptive language and an overall theme of life and death that present insight into the savageness of man and innocence of animal. "Woodchucks" and "Traveling through the Dark" both show the inhumane side of animal treatment - yet Kumin's tone is much more harsh, aggressive and unforgiving than Staffords. He attacks the evil psychology of humans and even alludes to Nazism- his relationship to nature is one of contempt. (Yet, it compels me to question the mental state of the speaker and his legitimacy if his perspective is influenced by the utmost extremisms like Nazi warfare.) Now, Stafford's tone is much more gentler but he is still saddened by the treatment of such poor animals. His relationship to nature is one of concern and despair - he see's much beauty in nature but also it's state of destruction. Stafford is very much "traveling through the dark," unable to find the pacifism or mercifulness he so wishes for.

D.W. Harding

I believe Harding accurately emphasized both the wit and physchology Austen implores in Pride & Prejudice, yet he misjudged her intentions and desire. I agree with him that Austen, whom was surrounded by a conventional society of customs and material social and economic institutions, was a truly remarkable person. For her time and environment, she did an amazing job of discussing and bringing full front the serious evils in societies. Now, i disagree with his proposition that she wrote about these social issues as a sort of self-preservation; rather, i believe that Austen wrote for both theraputic and moral reasons while admist a world of crude complacency. And, although i agree that she did bring satire into her work to discuss the faults of her world- i disagree with Harding that she was merely a "delicate satirist." Austen wasn't writing to simply employ humor into her readers, but rather, to enlighten her readers. I disagree with Harding that Austen exaggerated her characters in efforts of hoping to maintain and or camouflage her hatred so she could still "fit in."Austen doesn't care what so ever about social niches and to imply that she does simply shows Hardings ignorance of that which Austen stands most for. Yet, i agree with him that Austen's ability (through satire) to bring "fake" characters and "real" characters together artistically displays the massive disconnect between them and their worlds. Moreover, Harding claims that she did not have any "didactic intentions", however, i strongly disagree. I believe that through her satire she was trying to inspire and teach her readers of the follies of society and its trivialities. Also, Harding claims that Austen wanted people not to go to her writings as a means of escape but rather one of alliance. In part, i agree that Austen would of liked to have support for her thoughts, however, i believe she did write for people's relief- and more than that, for people's benefits- for knowledge. Austen was trying to expand, open people's consciousness to their embarrassing unconscious social world.

Revisions

• I need to better develop and repeat my debate

Rubric Ranking

A for Alfi: I would rank the first essay in the B-range. Although the essay is both arguable and logical the writer lacks mastery in both interest, progressive structure, and strong and obvious links to points. Also, the writer offers one point, that is, that Austen supplies "good" and "bad" lists. But, where is the writers other points to offer? Her argument, although generally solid, lacks sufficient support and only provides a few simple points. A few simple points won't win over the reader nor earn the writer an A-range. Sorry Alfi.
B for Beatrice: I would rank this essay in the A-range. The writer begins from the start with an interesting and insightful thesis. Moreover, the structure was strong and the essay flowed with both conversational and professional diction. Also, the writers examples and support were clear and well-chosen. Good job Beatrice!
C for Cecilia: Uh oh! I would rank this essay in the C-range. First of all, let me say, quantity does not equal quality. Second, the writer is vague on all accounts of analysis, nothing was fresh, nothing was insightful, nothing "changed me". Also, the writers topics are small, simplistic and underdeveloped and are generally confusing.

Intro

A society is made up of individuals where each man is responsible for himself. In each of our own contemporary societies we individually discriminate our values, ideals and our identity. And while at first, society seems to appear to be a means of survival promising protection and support, it is individuality that leads rise to change and close examination reveals that there is no extent to when or why individuality should be compromised. Indeed, contemporary society is suffocating, the environment inescapable, media and culture spiritually killing. So, let chaos rise and a society break. Let people get scared and unsure. Why do we find such security in conforming to the crowd when society’s focus will remain on itself, never the individual? Moreover, when our environment (Buckley, college, 1813 London) calls for conformity to the consensus, it is a necessity to have individuals that can and will break free from their environment and set change. In short, individuality forms when those concerned see society less mindful of the needs of the individual. If the society wants to break down the individual to obedience and agreement then the society itself needs to be broken down. The needs of the many outweigh the few? But, what if it is those few that guarantee ideas, happiness and liberty.

To His Coy Mistress

"Had we but world enough and time, This coyness, lady, were no crime. We would sit down and think which way To walk, and pass our long love's day."
In To His Coy Mistress, the poet uses scare tactics in order to terrify his love into submission. He seems to have an agenda as he appeals to her with a idyllic world, a world one might consider unattainable. Moreover, he stresses the urgency of time and alludes to Time constantly running out. Marvell's tone shifts throughout the poem from positive to negative. However, overall his tone seems to be somberly whimsical. Indeed, the poet has not the time to play the games of love- for in this reality, time is limited and her old-fashioned charm and coyness is one of waste in his eyes. In the end, we're restricted, all human beings die, so the question remains..are you going to let your virginity go to waste with the worms or have sex with me? I guess we'll never know what his coy mistress choose but let's hope she did carpe diem.

Alice in Wonderland

I read Alice in Wonderland a while back, I was hoping to go down the rabbit hole, into a good read full of literary nonsense and a fantasy world. I was so in love with the book the minute i started it that i began to annotate everything i loved; certain philosophies, mathematical concepts, metaphysical properties, truth symbolisms and a myriad of others. Moreover, the best part of all is every individual can perceive and discuss Carroll's concepts for him or her self. Lewis Carroll provides his audience with beginning theses that provide ideals, but leaves the manifestation of those ideas to develop in the imagination of the individual.

Pride & Prejudice

"You will have a charming mother-in-law, indeed, and of course she will be always at Pemberely with you." Indeed, Caroline (in a fit of jealously) teases Mr. Darcy for liking Liz's eyes and in so she tries to warn Darcy of the potential "disasters" that could and would await him if he were to take his affection any further. Moreover, Caroline mocks Mrs. Bennet by sarcastically referring to her as "charming" as it is quite obvious that she is annoying and ditzy. She then concludes to tell him how he will always be at Pemberely with Mrs. Bennet. And being at Pemeberly forever, on the country-side, is neither a good nor sophisticated thing.
