Chuck Jones was known for showing the emotion of cartoons with abstract animation and was the first to use the “smear” style of animation with “The Dover Boys”. One would say that you could see a lot of Chuck Jones style with the UPA cartoon “ Gerald McBoing Boing”

As a poet Arnold is generally admitted to rank among the Victorians next after Tennyson and Browning. The criticism‚ partly true‚ that he was not designed by Nature to be a poet but made himself one by hard work rests on his intensely‚ and at the outset coldly‚ intellectual and moral temperament.

Arnold repeatedly writes his sentences in a passive form in his poem. Additionally‚ he ends his sentences before the end of his complete thoughts. These enjambments that he uses make the new lines to start without a verb or subject‚ simply becoming clauses. This is to say that Arnold doesn’t continue his thoughts in one line unlike people who attempt to end up their thoughts with others avoiding an extended talk. This is to say that people prefer to stay alone talking in a limited way‚ whereas
