Novel By Wallace Fowlie: Poem Analysis

The novel is written from the point of view of a unnamed Custom House surveyor, or chief executive of the Custom House, who somehow seems to know more about the characters then they know about themselves. He is telling this story approximately two hundred years after it happened. The Custom House surveyor also seems to have much in common with Hawthorne but the novel should not be taken as a direct mouthpiece of the author's opinions. The narrator seems to be all knowing, yet he is also subjective because he voices his own opinions. Throughout the novel, the Custom House Surveyor is clearly sympathetic to two of the main characters, Hester, the protagonist, and Dimmesdale.

In stories both fiction and nonfiction, the author’s choice in the structure of the said story can greatly affect the meaning given to it, as well as the reader’s response to the story. In Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of the Red Death, Poe uses chronological order as well as metaphors and allegory to create a particular feel. Similarly, in A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner, the author uses different structure - beginning with the end, then going more chronologically - to create a different feeling. Both stories would be completely different if it were not for the methods the authors chose to use for their stories’ structure.

The author of “The Literary Panorama, and National Register, N.S., 8 (1 June 1818): 411-414.” uses the critical analysis to point out the flaws of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein story. Although there have been many re-printings of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley originally wrote and published her book Frankenstein in 1818. When Frankenstein was first published in 1818 it was met with mixed reviews like any good book is. I found my critical analysis on the website Romantic circles run by the University of Maryland under the The Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Chronology & Resource Site by Shanon Lawson.

In “Bedecked”, Redel raises attention about the different approaches to parenting in a situation when a parent’s son is more flamboyant than society would deem acceptable. Redel can handle the criticism and “other mothers looking”, but wanted none of it to change the purity of how her son “loves a beautiful thing not for what it means- / this way or that”(16-17). She ends her poem by asking readers if their “heart was ever once that brave”, for going against social norms and not confining to them (21-20). In addition to the older woman and younger man double standard, Calbert's “In Praise of My Young Husband” lists examples of the world’s different romances to note that there is not just one single type: “young lovers like to drink too much / and make a drunken, careless love, / why couples always cook so much” (19-22).

I thought the article would discuss the metamorphosis in the novel rather it discusses the metamorphosis of the development of the novel such as how the novel gained its name and how certain passages were omitted and added. However, as Thaddeus discusses these things, it is unclear and confusing. She begins in the first couple of passages focusing on light and dark being metaphoric for black and white. Again, this causes one to think that she will focus on the plot and structure of the novel. To continue, Thaddeus has poor transitioning in the article and complicates the understanding more.

The art of writing a book, is based upon the author’s goal upon which genre the author would wish for the piece to fall in. Many works of literature do not fit conveniently into just one literary genre. Such as the piece, Romeo and Juliet which was written by William Shakespeare, has the common theme the literary piece A Farewell to Arms, written by Ernest Hemingway. A Farewell to Arms as well as Romeo and Juliet share the features of a pair of “Star-cross’d Lovers” and can be classified as both a romance or tragic in nature.

Katya’s lover for instance sees Katya as just a mean of entertainment. When she tells Katya to tell her about her childhood memories, he had no interest in that story, he wanted to pass time. Katya longs for a man who would understand her and would listen to her real stories because the only person he knew had made her feel miserable. “She peered into the pile now and tried to read is she would ever meet a man who would understand her pity and her shame, to whom she’d tell her real stories, the ones that mattered , the ones that haunted her, without dressing them up with descriptions of labour-camp preschool, her red tie, or her family’s lack of bread and toilet paper.” (Lara 59).

This is similar to the poem Mother to Son by Langston Hughes. In the play, Cory is unwilling to sacrifice the way he feels for the sake of his family. Rose explains to him that she understands Troy wasn’t the easiest person to deal with and “being disrespectful to the memory of his father isn't going to make him a man.”. If she would have read Mother to Son to Cory it may have changed his opinion on Troy. Rose had to endure life with a man who felt his purpose was defeated.

The first time I was introduced to Romanticism in this course, I thought that I would be reading a lot of love poems and novels. But soon enough I realized how wrong I was and understood the real concept of Romanticism. It is a movement of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that reacted against the rules in literature, philosophy, art, religion, and politics at that period. Romantic writers meant to break out of what was usual and write about the things that no one dared to talk or write about. It also gave voice to the voiceless like children, women, and the low-class.

Although , from the historical and social perspective of today, we cannot fully empathize with the poem since the idea of that strong class system and Britains rule over the globe has vanished. On the other hand “Mother to Son” is a poem that the speaker is a mother who describes her hardships to her son by comparing her life to stairs. The main theme is for the poem "Mother to son. " It's all about us making it until the end and never giving up because we can't see what's ahead.

I believe she executed that, especially since Ondine doesn’t seem scare or concern by the man; Kate holds most of the worry in this story. However, I also think that the poem has elements of parental anxiety. My notion deals with the father ignoring his child. I took him ignoring his child as a way of him worrying some much he doesn’t pay mind to his child until his child

The passage I chose was difficult to understand because of the type of language William Shakespeare used, and because it was taken out of context. After that I went looking for a poem. I first searched for poems involving the word hope at Bartleby.com, but I couldn 't find one worth using; so, I then went to Poemhunter.com and again found nothing. Finally, I went to Poetrysoup.com and found a deserving poem. Afterward, I went back to Bartleby.com and searched for a quotation; the quote that I chose was long, yet exceeded my standards.

At first I didn 't know what a nonsense poem was when I was doing my research about the poem. What a nonsense poem is that it uses rhythm and rhyme to get the readers attention. Some other authors/writers who wrote nonsense literature were Dr.Seuss, Woody Allen, John Lennon, and my favorite author besides Carroll, Sherl Silverstein. Carroll has many other pieces that are nonsense poems but I will be breaking apart "Jabberwocky" instead. "Jabberwocky" to me seems to be a play on words because the beginning of the name is jabber which means to talk rapidly.

Moreover, the evidence that he had in hand was incomplete, leaving him stuck in times. Yet, he managed to turn it into a novel based on history by drawing hypothesis from the incomplete evidence. He significantly drew hypothesis from two distinct sources, one from common senses and one from references. When he provided a piece of history that limited his path to continue his novel, he started to question the evidence and answered the question himself from his own common sense. For instance, Demos brought up a question “ Had John exploited his position (as host) to lord it over the visitors?”

The novella Anthem has people being scared to fall out of line with society, therefore Equality is required to live in groups with his brothers and is not allowed to have he option to marry or to love someone.
