Translation 1

Ein ständiges Hauptthema von Englischklassen in der High-School, Romeo und Julia wurde von Shakespeare zu einem relativ frühen Punkt in seiner literarischen Karriere geschrieben, höchst wahrscheinlich 1594 oder 1595. Während großer Teile des 20. Jahrhunderts tendierten Kritiker dazu, dieses Stück im Vergleich zu den vier großartigen Tragödien, die Shakespeare im ersten Jahrzehnt des 17. Jahrhunderts geschrieben hat, gering zu schätzen. Neben den Hauptwerken des Dichters bewertet, scheint Romeo und Julia die psychologische Tiefe und die strukturelle Komplexität von Shakespeares späteren Tragödien zu fehlen. Doch über die letzten drei Jahrzehnte oder so haben viele Wissenschaftler diese Einschätzung geändert, was seinen Status innerhalb Shakespeares Gesamtwerk gewissermaßen aufgewertet hat. Von einer modernen Perspektive aus gesehen, ist Shakespeares Tragödie über das "unter einem schlechten Stern stehende" junge Liebespaar als ein außergewöhnliches Werk gesehen. Tatsächlich war Romeo und Julia zur Zeit seiner Komposition ein experimentelles Bühnenstück, das mehrere radikale Abweichungen von langjährigen Gebräuchen beinhaltete. Diese innovativen Aspekte des Stücks bekräftigen außerdem seine Hauptthemen und schmückte sie aus. Letztere beinhalten den Gegensatz zwischen Liebe und Hass, die entsprechende Benutzung einer Licht/Dunkelheit-Polarität, die Handhabung der Zeit (als Thema und als strukturelles Element) und die bedeutende Stellung des Schicksals und seinen Ausdruck in Träumen, Vorzeichen und Ahnungen, die sein tragisches Endergebnis ankündigen.

how is "customers'" attention attracted? no writing, message not to understand on first view
message? seat belts rescue lifes
how does the advert work, how are people influenced/convinced?
  • advert applies nearly everybody
  • "aha"-effect when you have understood the message
  • message is supported by the four photos
  • viewer is reminded of how fast a car accident can happen and how bad this can end
  • advert uses customers' fear of death

In the advert "buckle up" by "Deutsche Verkehrswacht" especially car drivers but in general everyone using cars shall be reminded of using seat belts. In the advert the photos of four people are shown. Three of this photos are marked with black ribbons, which symbolize for the death of the people shown in the photos. In the fourth picture there also is a black ribbon, but it lies around the man's breast. Instead of death this ribbon sybolizes a seat belt. So a contrast is created between death and the usage of seat belts, which clearly shows that seatbelts are saving lives. The advantages of this advert are that it applies to nearly everyone and that it reminds the viewers of how fast car accidents can happen. Furthermore the viewer is happy when he has underrstood the message of the advert, which is not easy to understand on the first view. All in all this is an really nice advert about a serious topic.
