The Telephone By Robert Frost Analysis

“The Tide Rises the Tide Falls”, is a poem written by Longfellow, to show nature’s cycle. Whittier’s poem, “Snow-Bound”, depicts the the polar opposites of warmth and cold, and comfort and discomfort. Question 2:Emily Dickinson was an amazing poet. 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”.

Ignored can lead to catastrophic consequences. In the story into the wild by Jon Krakauer the main character Chris Mccandless attempts to conform with nature alone with transcendental ways but dies as a result. Mccandless resolution was unjustified because he left his friends and family to distress, he did not have adequate materials to sustain himself in the wilderness and he overestimated himself throughout his journey. Some may argue that it was his right to strive for his goal by his philosophy but he ignored offers that would have kept him alive. Mccandless followed his journey to Alaska.

Very early in Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, George shares with Lennie how he wishes he were alone. He is one of the few character who actually has someone to keep him from loneliness, yet he wishes to be alone. He has tolerated living and traveling with Lennie for so long that he wishes he could experience what it would be like to be alone. In the same way his partner Lennie threatens him that he will just go up into the mountains and find a cave and live without him.

I'm going to be talking about John Colter and Tom Murphy's disadvantages and advantages when they were out exploring. And how hard it must have been on both of them to go out in the freezing cold, by themselves. They had to take care of themselves. It was a cold night up in Yellow Stone, when John Colter was walking around out there all by himself in the freezing cold, he even had to build his own shelter which was probably hard, so when John Colter finally had found such a good spot to put his shelter. He started building it he had a tarp

When Ethan was taking Mr. Hale to Corbury Flats during the icy winter months, Ethan was very cold to Mr. Hale every time they were together. Even when Hale was tried to make friendly conversation to Ethan all Hale saw was that “he never turned his face to mine” (7). Ethan chooses to make himself alone, and during the harsh winter he retract into himself and forget about his twisted personal life. Ethan doesn’t truly want to be friends with anyone else in the town, since all of his focus is being put towards Mattie; along with only looking out for himself. All of the people in Starksfield tend to become introverts when the winter months begin to hit.

Unfortunately, due to his lack of sense, the man continues down the trail as he is starting to freeze and feel the effects of the cold weather. Later in the story, London states that the man has a traveling companion. This traveling companion is a native wolf dog. Some readers may get the feeling that the dog may symbolize something in the story. Throughout the entire text,

First, the man is arrogantly traveling with his dog on a secluded trail towards a mining camp, ignoring the wise advice from an old timer of the Yukon. Next the man struggles for survival after experiencing a series of life threatening events. Finally, after the man’s multiple attempts of failure, he decides to humble himself enough to accept his defeats and peacefully leave the

Both authors use foreshadowing differently to hint at the ending of the story while still keeping the ending hidden from the reader. In “The Interlopers” the narrator states that “In the cold, gloomy forest, with the wind tearing in fitful gusts through the naked branches and whistling round the tree trunks, they lay and waited for the help that would now bring release and succor to both parties” (paragraph 20 lines 169-172). In this instance Saki uses the setting to foreshadow the deaths of Georg and Ulrich from the merciless weather. In the beginning of “The Lottery” the narrator said “Bobby Martin had already stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon followed his example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix-- the villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"--eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other boys” (paragraph 2 line 10). In these lines the author foreshadows that the children will be using the stones for play, until the author later reveals their intended purpose.

The poetry of Alfred Lord Tennyson greatly reflected his personal life experiences and cultural topics of his time. Most of Tennyson’s works were about contemporary controversies like advances in science, the evolution theory, and traditional religion (Mazzeno 5). The effects of Tennyson’s poetry and dramatic writing skills are, in part, building blocks for many modern day social beliefs. ` Alfred Tennyson was born on August 6, 1809, in Somersby, Lincolnshire, England to Reverend George Tennyson and Elizabeth Fytche Tennyson (Mazzeno 3). As a child, Alfred exhibited exceptional intelligence that eventually was brought to his father’s attention (Mazzeno 3).

One way in which the meaning of the poem was discussed in some sections was when Judson used words such as, “gems /gorgeous dyes/palaces of frostwork” (1-3). Using this smart word choice gives an brillant description and provides the poem with a romantic tone at the beginning. Deeper into the poem, the author uses even more active word choice such as, “cold and cheerless/ Without one warm, free pulse, one softening breath” (6-7).

“A Supermarket in California” is both a lymric to Ginsberg’s poetic hero and major influence, Walt Whitman. Walt Whitman was an early influence in Ginsberg poetry. He recalls one night that he had envisioned. He sets the scenario by declaring that he is walking down a street, underneath some trees, and a fully eclipsed moon, having “thoughts” of Walt Whitman. This naturalistic world shares symbolism by the trees and the moons referred to, in this literary work.

The man did not listen the the elder’s advice, and once he realized, dumbfounded, that the old man was right, he realized how foolish he was not to bring a partner because he thought he could be independent, and the journey would be a walk in a (moderately cold) park. As the man walks through the Yukon, he decides to peel off his mittens and unzip his jacket to eat a quick lunch and quickly realizes that was a bad idea: “That man from Sulfur Creek had spoken the truth when telling how cold it sometimes got in the country. And he had laughed at him at the time”(10). The man does not realize the significance of cold, and just how dangerous it can be when mixed with stupidity and absolutely no common sense.

The use of word to “watch” indicates loneliness. The act of watching the woods fill up implies the speaker was watching for a long period of time, which gives the sense of isolation and reflection. Since the speaker is in deep thought there is complete silence until, the “little horse” (line 5) shakes his “harness bells” (line 9). That startles the

So just like running away or staying where you 're living there will always will be consequences and advantages too. For Chris I say he made the smart choice by running away and be free in what he wants to do. But he knew it wasn’t going to be easy to heading to Alaska because some of the advantages were leaving society and be alone and travel his own transportation there which was walking and asking for a few rides. Then some consequences that occur was McCandless killing a moose. In a few days, the meat is rotten and overcome by maggots.
