Poetry analysis

Have you ever tried sitting down to analyze a poem for your English class? and instantly thought the author was talking in a foreign language? We have all been there at one point or another in our studious careers. You read the poem a thousand times yet nothing sinks in. You circle random ?literary devices?, hoping the teacher will give you credit for trying anyway. Don?t be that person anymore! Analyzing poems is actually a simple activity which can easily turn into a fun endeavor the more you practice. Just follow these straightforward steps and suggestions, which my own English teacher swears by. 1) Read that poem at least three times.

King Arthur Essay

Charlie Clevenger Mrs. Craft English 9H, Period 4 6 December 2011 King Arthur: The Chosen King Although his stories are probably fictional, King Arthur?s legendary figure has acquired large amounts of popularity in culture today. His legends have inspired a vast collection of books and movies. Although Arthur?s historical background is the basis for the legends, it is not nearly as precise. The legends involved a mixture of magic, romance, adventure, betrayal, and adultery. King Arthur was the greatest king of England, but his quest was for the Holy Grail, with his Knights of the Round Table, his magical sword Excalibur, and Merlin the Wizard.

Lila Balakrishnan Ms. Badger World Studies II per. 3 6 March 2013 Short Written Response TFA Chinua Achebe created the fascinating work of Things Fall Apart which detailed the life of Okonkwo, a man of the Igbo people, as his life, and the way of his people, ?fell apart? with the coming of Christianity. A tragic hero due to his crumbling life and flawed nature, Okonkwo truly epitomizes this character type through his tragic and unnecessary death. Okonkwo?s death by trying to show his people how they were losing their culture was truly in vain and as such, affected the work differently.
