She has tons of poems with a common theme of loneliness. Some of these poems with this theme are, “You left me”, and “I hide myself within my flower”.

This section of the poem I believe perfectly captures two emotions by the use of blasphemy due to using profanity against the angels, which I believe capture the emotion of anger, and grief because a person would never curse out at the angels unless they are mad or feel such strong emotions such as grief. This section of the poem also captures dark humor because it describes us humans giving the angel who is waiting for us to have our final breath a piggyback ride, which is something that I found to be humorous. In reality, I believe it is not until we get to this section of the poem that we are able to clearly tell the emotions that the poet is feeling. Now that I have first explained how the poet showed the emotions of anger, grief, and dark humor, I will secondly start

In addition to his annotation about the importance of nature, Longfellow in his poem “The Song of Hiawatha”, narrates us about the Native America inestimable interpretations of the Earth, provided by a fictional singer called “Nawadaha”. Longfellow uses this mythical character to portray his naïve thoughts about the socially rejected Indians and how does the natural landscape of the world figure the unknown and untold essence of

The wilderness was his true happiness, it made him feel different, and he in fact hated society and his old life. A quote by Ruess, “I have been thinking more and more, that I shall always be a lone wanderer of the wilderness. God, how the trail lures me. You cannot comprehend it’s resistance fascination for me. After all the lone trail is the longest… I'll never stop wandering and when the time comes to die , I’ll find the wildest, loneliest most desolate spot there is” (Krakauer 91).

The Tempest is a captivating play that follows the afternoon of a wizard and his revenge plot against diplomats that banished him to a deserted island with his daughter.

In closing, Flannery O’Conner’s “A Good Man Is Hard To Find” written in 1953, has numerous examples of foreshadowing that could even be considered ironic due to the obviousness of the situations this unfortunate family was subjected to. O’Conner is known for her shock factor in her stories as well as the proverbial moment of grace which the grandmother found just before

This shows how the monster was enticed by the old mans’ playing of an instrument, a surprising feat considering the monster was ostracized by humanity. This shows that even the coldest of creatures can succumb to the simplest pleasures of humanity. Similarly, Grendel from the novel also faces the same enticement by the lyrics of the shaper. Grendel states that, “I listened, felt myself swept up. I knew very well that all he said was ridiculous, not light for their darkness but flattery, illusion, a vortex pulling them from sunlight to heat, a kind of midsummer burgeoning, waltz to the sickle.

Slavery is a tornado destroying everything in its path but it is given the power to do so by not judging anyone and devastating all. To describe this soul spinning, thought control process, Douglass uses another craft move, Contrasting. He uses this craft move when he talks of Mrs. Auld. For example, she was good as an angel at first and even “The meanest slave was put fully at ease in her presence” but that soon ended and “That cheerful eye, under the influence of slavery, soon became red with rage”(Douglass 6.2) Hence, the reader's mind now shifting to form a wary of slavery.

It starts off by describing what Finkel sees in the painting such as the see and the sky. He goes on to talk about how the painter states that the fishermen are safe in the sea but how the painter is feeling out of control in real life. The Author of the poem states that the painter is not safe, even from the painter, himself. The poem came to the same conclusion as I did when it came to what the painting is trying to say.

Poe is excellent at using descriptive words to place a picture in the mind of readers, but in this instance, he uses a simile that sticks in the reader 's mind. By adding a simile with descriptive words, he can add a poetic tone to the reading, and permanently project a picture to the reader. This leaves readers craving more of the story. Moreover, The Black Cat also has imagery showing that Poe is able to persistently fill his stories with a certain tone and image. “I married early, and was happy to find in my wife a disposition not uncongenial with my own.

He argues that everyone has different writing process that works for them. Although he is too aggressive, and sarcastic in his writing, he clearly introduces his aspects of Lamott’s opinion. Nevertheless, I found his thesis highly biased and contradicting. He points out her generalization of “all good writers” and “shitty drafts”. Her purpose, however, is to correct the “fantasy of uninitiated”, and shows that even experienced writers like herself go through painstaking stages.

However, pathos is also applied to the heartbreaking reality of loss when, "smoking= no cats= no cat videos".

The narrator even hints the abuse of Pluto causes his “old” heart to feel grieve for the cat’s dislike. His feelings after he hits his cat is important because the readers are able to see the conflict the main character has within himself. Furthermore, the narrator is able to understand the evilness of his abuse, but, the alcohol, which symbolizes

Similarly in The Black Cat, the narrator writes from a first person perspective, and likewise tells the reader that he is not “mad.” The openging of the “Black Cat” starts out by him adressing the fact that he on deathroe but the whole situtation is completly a misunderstanding and wants to prove you wrong; when you start to begin to think he is

This supports the idea of Icarus life being unsatisfying and in a bigger that everyday life is boring and humdrum. Field uses imagery to generate a dull and dark contemporary image, he does that in the poem when he says “Only the feathers floating around the hat” (1), “Never dreaming that the gray, respectable suit” (11) and, “And nightly Icarus probes his wound” (21), Field’s use of weary imagery creates a world that is jaded and where one would not want to experience, yet, Icarus is caught in its grasp of failure and becomes obsessive of it. Field excellently demonstrates the aftermath of losing one’s beauty, and youthful spirit, he does this using poetic
