Richard Bone By Edgar Lee Masters
I preferred the poem " Richard Bone " by Edgar Lee Masters. This got my attention because various can associate with this poem. I admire how what Edgar states in his poem is authentic. It relates to the atmosphere we exist in because it's well-known for us to tell kind responses while has someone passes away. If we display rude comments it's considered inappropriate and might make others

    The Rock And The River By Kekla Magoon

    In The Rock and the River, by Kekla Magoon, “all it takes for evil to exist is for good people to do nothing” is a prominent theme. An example of this is when Bucky had just been brutally beat and arrested by the police. The police did this in broad daylight in front of everyone including Maxie and Sam. “People on the street began going about their business again. The radio blasted, covering the silence of disbelief, of resignation.” (pg. 68). This quote demonstrates the theme because it shows that if the people watching the violence happen (aka the “good people”) do nothing, then the cop’s racism (aka the evil) would continue existing.…

    Matt Cruse is a cabin boy on the Aurora, a huge airship that sails hundreds of feet above the ocean, ferrying wealthy passengers from city to city.

    Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey

    After having a thorough read of the novel ‘Jasper Jones’ by Craig Silvey, I have come to understand the powerful effects of using written codes and conventions in novels. Silvey’s impressive piece of literature was carefully constructed through techniques such as characterization, socio-cultural context, themes and intertexuality. By doing this, Silvey was accredited for convincing the readers, appealing to their emotions and manipulating their beliefs and values to accept or agree with his opinions on the issue covered in the novel.…

    Ancestors by Peter Skrzynecki

    The poem Ancestors by Peter Skrzynecki is a excellent example of belonging and expresses his feeling of not belonging in his family. The poem presents a series of rhetorical questions which reflects on a dream Skrzynecki has had or is having and what he believes the meaning is. We could deduce from this poem and its use of present tense that the dream is a recurring dream about these vague images of Ancestors and how Skrzynecki is desperately trying to understand their relevance to him. In this dream, the ancestors are unfamiliar to Skrzynecki but give off a very powerful presence to him. They appear to have a message for him, but he can’t hear what it is, they are always pointing at him but never speak so there meaning becomes very mysterious. The use of rhetorical questions gives the poem a dramatic feel and makes the reader feel the same frustration that Skrzynecki feels.…

    Sparrow by Norman Maccaig

    “Sparrow” by Norman MacCaig has a strong social issue of the class system and how the classes differ. MacCaig talks about the issue of the class system in relation to survival of to fittest. The poem itself talks about birds like sparrows and other birds in general, which are metaphors for people. Word choice, sentence structure and enjambment were strong in improving my understanding of the social issue of the class system.…

    William Street, by Kenneth Slessor

    In the poem, 'William Street' Kenneth Slessor displays a variety of ideas associated with the city in general, but narrows his poem down to direct at William Street. In this essay I will be further exploring the ideas such as the beauty of the street, the urban or city landscape is as beautiful as the country and the idea of change. Optimists are rare when it comes to the city structure and the rubbish that is present all throughout. Slessor, through his poem uses convincing language to help to view things positively and the way he views the street.…

    "The Hill" Analysis

    For this assignment I chose to write about “The Hill” by Edgar Lee Masters. “The Hill” is included in “The Spoon river anthology” was one of Masters’ most famous works. The poem I chose is unique in its subject in that it idolizes how the lives of the deceased were portrayed. While most would be turned off by the idea of writing about epitaphs and the reasons behind the death of humans, Masters was able to successfully take what is normally a cheerless subject and translate that sorrow to curiosity.…
