Also, discuss the theme of dealing with violence in both plays. In Time Stands Still, Sarah is not quivered by violence as its her job to capture moments of warfare while James cant do it anymore with seeing people get injured in front of him. Mandy doesn’t understand how Sarah can let victims perish without helping them. In God of Carnage, Veronica tries to have a moral ground to avoid violence and subdue violent tendencies to establish a form of civilization but Michael thinks all human beings have an inherent ability to be savage. Alan thinks its a natural behavior to cause violence. He states a parallel between the kid Soldiers in Africa and the children in the playground; showing the violence to a different degree. Also, discuss the theme of couple relationships and dynamics in both plays.
