But, you can still come in to sign your Folio flyleaf in the morning if your plan is to do that. Just knock on Ms McGrory’s door. She will give you a form and then she’ll pass it to me when you have completed it.
If you want to see me about any aspect of the course, we could possibly discuss at lunch time and then again during p6 when I am free. Thursday is the next day when I will be in and available.
Keep going, carriers of the fire!
MrT
Please come into school to give me the record of research for your dissertation. Scroll down to find the template I provided. If your record comprises a fairly well labelled set of notes and is not written on the template then I can accept that.
Please also come in to sign and complete AH Folio lyleafs.
Thanks! 🙂
MrT
I you are NOT on the following list you need to come in to see me to sign a Folio flyleaf: I DO have flyleafs for Dylan, Eva, Tally, Eren.
Thanks and see you soon!
MrT
Troops, the third and fourth stanzas in ‘Afternoons’ should be merged together to make the final stanza – stanza 3. And ‘acrons’ should be ‘acorns’… Thanks guys. See you tomorrow. MrT.
Troops,
Here’s a limited selection of 20th C poems. The first few are by the brilliant Edna St Vincent Millay. Have fun deconstructing them!
Selection of 20th Century Poems
Please come to see me on Tuesday to pick up timed essays which have been marked and are ready for return. Much of the work is good 🙂 whilst there are still some improvements to make.
Keep going. You can do it.
Regards. MrT
Brilliant article: poetry and nationalist politics – concept of the quest to return to a temporarily lost, ideal state. Compare this to the revolutionary and progressive Burns and Shelley poems in the previous post’s attachment. And there you have it: progressive poetry vs conservative poetry. Which side do you find yourself on?
There are some STUPENDOUS poems here. It was so difficult to choose, but I hope you enjoy analysing my selection of poems from the late 18th to late 19th centuries. Consider nature, human nature, time, relationships, the soul, the imagination, politics, religion/faith, ends and beginnings, immortality, the power of literature, hope…
And of course the poetic devices and forms that convey these central concerns.
Use terminology when discussing poetry (voice, mood, stanza, rhyme, rhythm (meter), imagery, line structure, enjambement, caesurae, end-stop, assonance, alliteration, symbolism…)
Get stuck in, troops. YOU CAN DO IT!
AH Poetry Textual Analysis Practice Part 1
Three truly great poems about relationships (that one word description is a HUGE oversimplification that you must ALWAYS expand upon!) from 16th and early 17th C. Remember, read carefully and you’ll gradually find a way in. Key lines will unlock the poems for you. All three of these poets are daring, complex, challenging, direct, indirect in their own ways. Enjoy!
