German task / operation "show"?
Hello, my German task is:
"Show that "Iphigenia in Tauris" is a model of classicism and a proclamation of humanity."
I don't really have much use for the phrase "zeigen Sie." I found a great list of German "operations" that can be used in school assignments in this link, but I don't know if "zeigen" is supposed to be something like analyzing, compiling, or investigating.
If anyone has any idea what is required for this task, I would be happy to hear from you!
Yes, “show” is such an operator. You could also formulate, «show that …» or «refer to corresponding text passages that …». Another operator would be «Because of why …»
You can Iphigenia on Tauris Announcement of Humanity enter into the browser as a search term. Linked the first result.

Greeting Matti
Hello, Matti,
I’m afraid I’m still a little unclear what to write. Somehow I don’t know so many essays yet, so I’ve already written a discussion that seems to be wrong here. It’s not a TGA either. An analysis, maybe?

I don’t know. I’m mid-60 and I don’t know what a TGA is. My school is half a century ago and at that time only five existing grades were in my certificate in German always a 4th. The teachers thought it was good with me. So you can learn what I have to contribute to the subject.
Apart from the fact that in our country IMMER «Kabale und Liebe» by Friedrich Schiller stood on the schedule. IMMER! There was even a television recording of a theatre production from the Deutsches Theater in Berlin, which was shown on TV every year at the same time and according to the curriculum in the afternoon (still in black and white). This was also true for people who already called their own color television.
But enough of the anecdote.
What this is supposed to be a text would have to come out of the text. This is not evident from the above-mentioned task. I’d just take a look at some of the search results, as I linked one by way of example.
