The mother of all run-on sentences:
McDonald contends that the contracted and repeated plotlines within the play are significant not only because they demonstrate Shakespeare’s mastery of play-writing, which permits him to present The Tempest in “the most abbreviated and indicative fashion” allowing “omission [to] make itself felt narratively as well as stylistically,” (McDonald, 101) but also because its paradoxical pleonasm “tantalizes the audience with the hope of clarification and fixity that art seems to promise, but it also demonstrates the difficulty and perhaps, finally, the impossibility of attaining them” (McDonald, 105).
I am actually allowing myself to keep this sentence. As far as I can tell, it flows, makes completely sense, grammatically, and Warburton will probably hate me for it. All good things... right?
Lets make it a vote, shall we? Who says I keep it?
