are registered where every day i turn
the leaf to read them. let us toward the king.
(to banquo) think upon what hath chanced, and at more time,
the interim having weighed it, let us speak
our free hearts each to other.
how does the authors use of stage direction, in parenthesis, enhance the literal meaning of the text? (r.1.1)

by creating an informal view of the characters conversation through dialogue
by creating a formal view of the characters thoughts through internal dialogue.
it creates an informal view of the characters feelings of guilt through dialogue.

Explanation:

En un texto teatral, las indicaciones de escena (stage directions) sirven para guiar la actuación y la interpretación. En este caso, la indicación de escena "(To Banquo)" le dice al actor que se dirija específicamente a Banquo. Esto crea un contexto formal de interacción entre personajes, ya que se especifica a quién se dirige la línea. Las otras opciones hablan de informalidad o de elementos internos (como pensamientos o culpa) que no se ven reflejados en la indicación de escena.

Answer:

It creates a formal view of the characters' actions and physical response.
