Read the excerpt below and answer the question. what a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! (act 2, scene 2) this quotation from hamlet reflects the fact that shakespeare lived in a time of . catharsis humanism problem plays skepticism

Hamlet itself is considered as a problem play, but problem plays were widespread in 19th century. It is actually a Shakespearean problem play. Showing the paradoxical nature of human qualities, it is a problem play, but the author lived in the time of humanist literature. So that, the answer is humanism.  

The answer is: humanism.

Shakespeare lived during the 16th and 17th centuries, a time in history that was characterized for being strongly marked by an earlier movement, the Renaissance, that during the 15th century and ever since, inspired a new age in humanity that revolved around humanist values that, taking inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman values, considered the human being to be the absolute focus of politics, philosophy, science, and art.  

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.
