St. Augustine Florida‚ the beach was calling my name‚ and I was shouting right back at it. This was the norm for me in summer 2013. I had it pretty easy for the first sixteen years of my life‚ being able to go out with no responsibilities‚ no worry at all. I found myself lurking around the house until finally deciding to surf away my day with friends. While on the car ride home with my bothersome brother and sister I found myself suddenly finding the urge to become more independent. I needed a job

Jones uses literary techniques such as vivid imagery‚ symbols‚ and the theme that uneducated people value education more than educated people to show that the girls and their mother are trying their best.

In "Cousin Kate"‚ Rossetti gives messages about an abuse of power. The "Lord" "lured" the narrator to his "palace home". The word "lured" is very ominous and enforces the idea that he is a figure with authority. He manages to seduce the narrator with his flattery‚ and then enthrals her like a predator with his prey.

‘A Birthday’ is an upbeat‚ jubilant poem about love‚ written by Christina Rossetti in 1861. While many believe that this love she is expressing so effusively is about a man‚ I believe that it is about her new-found love for God. Rossetti‚ after all‚ was a very religious person. The poem‚ surprisingly‚ has an exuberant‚ lively tone‚ a great contrast to her other works‚ which almost always give a sense of gloom and bleakness. Rossetti creates a structured arrangement‚ allowing the images to flow

Compare and Contrast Sonnet 18 and Sonnet 130 by William Shakespeare In this essay I am going to highlight the comparisons and contrasts between William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 and Sonnet 130 and also give my opinions.
