marriage

Hey everyone, I guess it is time for blog #2. I really enjoyed Marriage a la Mode. I thought that the combination of tragedy and comedy really worked for the play. I thought that the comic plot was a much more accurate depiction of relationships in actual life. Real life romances can be full of passion in the beginning, and then dwindle as relationships continue. I think that in many relationship passion turns into friendship and companionship. The lovers in the tragic plot depict how many relationships being, and the comic plot depicts lovers as time goes on. The poetic language of the tragic lovers was interesting to read, and I enjoyed the rhyming couplets. It was interesting that the language was so structured and smooth, while their relationship was complicated.
