Robert Frost's Themes Of Isolation, Extinction, And Limitations Of Man
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1375

.... a notion in his head”. Frost in this poem uses a simple rural activity, that is the mending of a wall, to conjure a much more universal theme that is isolation. The persona ponders at the fact why man can not live without walls, boundaries, limits and particularly self-limitations. “There where it is/ We do not need a wall”. Isolation of the individual links to our desire for barriers and boundaries as a form of separation from other people. We find in “Mending Wall” the desire of a rural farmer to mend a wall every spring between him and the persona “And set the wall betwee .....


Love Is Forever
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 431

.... poems are, rhyming and love. This poems has rhyming, repetition, a very lovely mood, some good visual imagery, and of course lines something that every poem has. I thought that the first and second line was very good visual imagery "written with a pen sealed with a kiss". It show how it really happened and was done. Through out the whole poems was a loved filled mood. Lines 13, 15, 16, and 19 all start with "I'll". Every words has something rhyming with it except the first and third line. Most of the rhyming is "you" and "true". This poems could be used for many metaphor. I h .....


Alexander Pope's "The Rape Of The Lock"
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 558

.... that guides Belinda. When Belinda was asleep Ariel came into her dream to tell her to “Beware of all, but most beware of Man!” He was telling her to watch out for man because he will try to take her chastity. When Belinda awoke she thought deeply about what was said to her in her dream but then she forgot all about the lesson when she started to think about Baron. This is the gaining of wisdom aspect of the epic poem. The greatest aspect of an epic poem is the quest and the battle. Pope uses both of these in a quite different manner in his poem. Baron is questing for th .....


Critical Analysis Of "The Eagle" By Lord Tennyson
Number of pages: 1 | Number of words: 186

.... The rhyme scheme is every last word in each stanza rhyme's. Some of the imagery is with sight and sound. For sight they are “Close to the sun”, “Azure world”, azure mean the blue color in a clear daytime sky. “ Wrinkled sea beneath”, and “mountain walls”. The only one that was imagery of sight & sound was “like a thunderbolt he falls”. The figures of speech are “wrinkled sea”, which means the waves in the ocean. And one simile is “like a thunderbolt he falls”, it is saying how fast a eagle dives. The poems theme is how an eagle can fly so high and dive so fast. An .....


"Life Is A Series Of Tests And Challenges": A Critical Analysis Of Sir Gawain And The Green Knight
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 812

.... challenge from the Green Knight instantly represented one of the things that knighthood represented, fearlessness. People accept those kind of challenges everyday. This could possibly be where the term "sticking your neck out" could have come from. When people accept challenges, most do not want to accept the consequences as a result of being unsuccessful. Gawain was not like this. When the year passed he gallantly mounted his horse and set off for the Green Chapel. This showed that Gawain was brave. This was preceded by the warning "Beware, Gawain, that you not end a betray .....


The Book Of Exodus
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1060

.... so to speak to deliver his people from bondage. His mission was similar to those of other typical epics. It was of course a very dangerous and exhausting journey that lasted a very long time. There were many obstacles to overcome as well as internal affairs among the Hebrews. Moses was born a Hebrew but was raised as the prince of Egypt. Just like Odysseus, Moses was a man of nobility. Moses did not know he was a Hebrew until he was a much older man. He was living a lie without even realizing it. “And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, .....


"A Dream Within A Dream"
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 503

.... I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? In the first stanza of his poem, Poe is speaking to a person who has seen him through some rough times. He is trying to convince her as well as himself that his life has not changed through the years. He questions the realness and significance of the everyday events of life and finally concludes that they are unimportant and superficial. "All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream." The second stanza takes on a more despairing tone. His air of carelessness begins to vanish. He realizes that everything he holds of value .....


An Analysis Of "To A Friend Whose Work Has Come To Triumph"
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 424

.... "Think of the difference it made!" referring to Icarus' flight. She might have wanted her friend to realize a difference her defying her father made. The final line of the poem has a comparably different tone than the first 13 lines. The last line, "See him acclaiming the sun and come plunging down while his sensible daddy goes straight into town.", seems more mocking of Daedalus' flight. It seems that Sexton feels that Daedalus' flight was a wasted chance and was in no way adventurous. She might also be comparing her friend to Icarus, seeing as he too failed his initial .....
