from getting shot. Tennyson’s poem observes the battle from a distance as if he had a good viewpoint. He was not a participant like the poems of Wilfred Owen or Rupert Brook who wrote their poems and died in the trenches of the First World War. Tennyson sets the scene of battle and creates the atmosphere for ‘The Charge of the Light Brigade’ by the form and structure of the poem. The six stanzas have a clear and powerful dactylic rhythm‚ representing the galloping hooves of the horses as they race

different composers have reflected the concerns of their society‚ in regards to gender‚ through a variety of texts. I will be focusing on two texts in particular‚ an excerpt from The Princess entitled “The Woman’s Cause is Mans” by playwright Alfred Lord Tennyson written in 1847 and the film adaptation of the play “A Streetcar Named Desire” originally composed by Tennessee Williams in 1947. Both of these texts offer readers an insightful analysis of the gender issues prominent at the time. A key gender issue

The Berries experienced the pre-affiliation stage when we first formed our small groups. We were not familiar with each other at first so the activity using the prompt cards given to us in class to get to know each were really helpful. We did not see our relationships as intimate‚ as most of us had never met‚ we just happen to be sitting close to each other in class and that was how we picked our group. At first‚ we did not even want to get together to watch 12 Angry Men and watched it on our

Ulysses finds himself restless in Ithaca and driven by "the longing I had to gain experience of the world". Ulysses says that there is little point in his staying home "by this still hearth" with his old wife‚ handing out rewards and punishments

Eliot’s theory of the ‘dissociation of sensibility’ may be said to be an attempt to find some kind of historical explanation to the dissolution of the tradition of unified sensibility which found its perfection in the writings of Dante and Shakespeare. The unified sensibility was a sensibility which was the product of a true synthesis of the individual

Tennyson’s “Ulysses”--- The Representative of Victorian Times Tennyson‚ (1809-1892) a great literary titan‚ is the representative poet of Victorian Age and mirrors the most vital problem of industrial and moral life – “religious doubts‚ social problems‚ the revolt of the cultured mind against a corrupt society‚ pride in a far-flung Empire‚ the spirit of compromise so characteristic of the Victorian period”. He was‚ thus‚ a truly national poet and from a nationalistic view-point declares;

After reading the “The Flowers” from Alice walker‚ there was two quotes that struck me the most: “Myop laid down her flowers‚” this can represent that Myop have witnessed flowers blooming so pure and beautiful‚ but can finally rest them to peace. The cycle of life and death. “Today she made her own path….” this can represent her new journey. She wants to do her own things‚ her own ways. A better life for herself.
