PLEASE HELP!! (The Importance of Being Earnest)

Answer 1

Explain the significance of the title "The Importance of Being Earnest". Discuss the meaning of earnest and the name Ernest. Also, explain how Wilde communicates his message regarding trivial and serious matters.

Answer 2

I already have explained the first two parts, but I just need help with how Oliver Wilde communicates his message regarding trivial and serious matters (:

Answer 3

He communicates his message by believing that serious things shouldn't be taken seriously, and the unimportant trivial stuff should be taken seriously, as mocked in the play.

Answer 4

Thank you so much!!

Answer 5

I took this test a week ago, and that's basically what I said. Hope it helps!
