Romantic poems that engage wonderfully with these themes are Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “Ozymandias” and John Keats’ “Ode on a Grecian Urn”. Although they take opposite approaches--Shelley uses “Ozymandias” to express the mutability of life‚ while Keats uses the Urn to show that art can be timeless--both poems revolve around an object struggling against the passing of time. Both “Ozymandias” and “Ode on a Grecian urn” exemplify the struggle with the passing of time‚ and although the two poems appear to have

we encounter models for the dynamics of phenomena which depend on rates of change of functions‚ eg velocities and accelerations of particles or points on rigid bodies‚ which prompts the use of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We can use ordinary calculus to solve ODEs‚ provided that the functions are nicely behaved—which means continuous and with continuous derivatives. Unfortunately‚ there is much interest in engineering dynamical problems involving functions that input step change or spike

physicality of nature‚ but human rational and the balance of life‚ heavily influenced the writings of the Romantics. In the majority of Keats’ odes‚ he stresses upon the importance of accepting that with the good comes the bad‚ with the right comes the wrong‚ with the pain comes the joy.

The chorus passionately sings the evils of love while closely examining the situation of the Lovers’ potential ends. Force emanates from each word that Sophocles conducts‚ forcing
