The document provides guidance on analyzing various elements of fiction and poetry texts, including: identifying the tone, theme, and point of view; recognizing shifts in tone; and understanding clues from the title, patterns, and form. It emphasizes carefully re-reading texts multiple times and looking for clues to infer meanings rather than relying on questions. The document aims to help readers closely analyze texts and draw their own conclusions.

Review the title page for errors and missing elements. In the running head, give a short version of the title (not the whole thing), and give the page number. Do not use bold font. Double space. For the title of the poem mentioned in the essay, use quotation marks. The introduction should have an opening sentence that engages the reader and introduces the general topic. The last sentence of the introduction should be your thesis statement (or main point) for writing the essay. The thesis statement is your opinion about some literary element in the poem (such as imagery, theme, or symbolism) and why the author used it or what the author accomplished with it. The thesis cannot be a fact because it is a statement of opinion. Expand the essay to five paragraphs. Support the main point with short quotations and examples as evidence. Analyze the poem by looking deeply at words and phrases. Do not generalize and talk about people and society; talk about the poem's language. You must give in-text citations for every quotation. Give the author, date, and line number in parentheses. Left align the reference. Use a hanging indent. Fix errors in the end reference. 2. You immediately had me hooked with your introduction speaking about secrecy of the human life. I really enjoyed when you tied the introduction to the modern world and your poem. The more connections throughout the poem the better. I like the direction of your poem and your explanation of symbolism. I would remember the APA citations and cite the quotations from the poem. 3. You chose a good poem! I do think your introduction needs to be stronger. I would have liked to see a more eye opening introduction as I didn't really know the meaning of the poem based off the title alone. I was looking forward to an interesting explanation that would grab my attention. Also be careful with grammar and spelling. Use spell check as often as needed. The title needs to be in title case throughout the essay, making sure to include quotations around the title .

Formal Writing Tips

Ms. Ross

Prepare: Prior to beginning your initial post, read the poems “We Real Cool” and “My Papa’s Waltz” in your textbook. You are also required to listen to “ We Real Cool ” and “ My Papa’s Waltz ” before completing this discussion. These clips demonstrate the importance of performance, rhythm, and musicality in the poetic form. Reflect: Poetry is a literary form that can offer readers a different experience based on whether the poem is read silently, read aloud, or simply listened to when read by someone else. For example, you might hear a certain rhythm or change of pace that you might not catch when simply reading the poem silently to yourself. For this week’s discussion, you read and listened to poetry. If you didn’t the first time, read and listen with careful eyes and ears so you can respond thoughtfully to the two parts of the discussion this week. Write: Part One – Answer the following questions about one of the poems based on your reading of them: Identify the theme of the poem. How do you know this is the theme? Define the poetic devices (e.g., rhythm, figurative language, etc.) used in the poem. Offer at least two examples. Analyze how these poetic devices contribute to the development of the poem’s message. Support your ideas with textual details and analyses. Part Two – Describe your listening experience of the same poem you wrote about above. If you are unable to listen to these poems due to an auditory impairment, please reach out to your instructor for an alternative prompt for this discussion. Respond to at least two of the following questions: How did hearing the poem recited aloud compare to a silent reading of it? Did the performance highlight certain words or phrases that were not as apparent in a silent reading? Did the pace change and, if so, how did it change your understanding of the poem? Did words have different connotations when spoken aloud, and, if so, what kind(s) of connotation did you associate with the poem? Do you think reading poetry aloud is a worthwhile endeavor when analyzing it? Why, or why not? We Real Cool Gwendolyn Brooks , 1917 - 2000 THE POOL PLAYERS. SEVEN AT THE GOLDEN SHOVEL. We real cool. We Left school. We Lurk late. We Strike straight. We Sing sin. We Thin gin. We Jazz June. We Die soon.

DIRECTIONS: Write a poetry analysis of a minimum of 600-700 words on one of the following topics. The main purpose is to let the reader understand the interaction of the specific elements that add up to the piece’s power and effectiveness. It aims to show professor how deep your understanding of the poem’s message and how well you can use your analytical skills. Your paper should have an introduction that engages the reader’s interest and presents the thesis statement to be developed in your essay; supporting paragraphs, each with a topic sentence; and a concluding paragraph consisting of a summary and a final thought. Keep in mind that organizing your essay and supporting your ideas will be as important as your command of grammar and usage. This assignment is due Wednesday before 11:59pm. What is the purpose of a poetry analysis paper? Demonstrate your comprehension of the assigned readings discussed in class; Provide your analysis of the assigned readings. Essay #2 Topics Funeral Blues by W. H. Auden Discuss how the poet has used hyperbole, structure and rhyme scheme in order to highlight the theme of death and loss. We Real Cool by Gwendolyn Brooks Brooks has stated that she consciously uses lineation, rhyme, tone, as instruments to create meaning in her writing. Analyze how she employs these elements to convey her attitude and final message toward the protagonists in the poem. Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden After reading and analyzing the poem, write an essay in which you explain how the poet’s use of diction and imagery reveals the speaker’s complex attitude toward his father. ***Please submit this assignment to Turnitin before Wednesday 07/10/19 by 11:59pm today. All assignments will be graded electronically. ESSAY GRADING RUBRIC Assignment Possible Points Points Earned Content 10 points Format & Organization 5 points Grammar, Punctuation & Spelling 5 points TOTAL 20 POINTS Introduction Starting with the title for the analysis can be something very basic or a clever quote, a statement from the piece. Moving onto the introduction to poetry analysis, this should open with a “hook” to get the reader's attention. Follow up with the Authors name and title for the piece. Add some interesting trivia or background info that is not known to the audience, but try to keep it short . To finish off the introduction to a poetry analysis state your thesis. Body The bulk of ideas and comparisons need to be explored here in a clear, focused way. When writing a poetry analysis, each paragraph should be devoted to one point or feature you are comparing . You can divide each point by using the corresponding letter from the outline. Try to make it a coherent and specific about what is being compared (example: when stating your ideas about what the poetic devices do to the piece check whether you state each one and do not generalize). Using transition words and phrases will keep the paragraphs flowing .

TP-CASTT Poetry Analysis T Title Before you even think about reading the poetry or trying to analyze it, speculate on what you think the poem might be about based upon the title. Often time, authors conceal meaning and give clues in the title. Jot down what you think this poem will be about P Paraphrase Before you begin thinking about meaning or trying to analyze the poem, don't overlook the literal meaning of the poem. One of the biggest problems that students often make in poetry analysis is jumping to conclusions before understanding what is taking place in the poem. When you paraphrase a poem, write in your own words exactly what happens in each line of the poem. Look at the number of sentences in the poem—your paraphrase should have exactly the same number. This technique is especially helpful for poems written in the 17th and 19th centuries that use language that is harder to understand. C Connotation Although this term usually refers solely to the emotional overtones of word choice, for this chart the term refers to any and all poetic devices, focusing on how such devices contribute to the meaning, the effect, or both of a poem. You may consider imagery, figures of speech (simile, metaphor, personification, symbolism, etc), diction, point of view, and sound devices (alliteration, onomatopoeia, rhythm, and rhyme). It is not necessary that you identify all the poetic devices within the poem. The ones you do identify should be seen as a way of supporting the conclusions you are going to draw about the poem. A Attitude Having examined the poem's devices and clues closely, you are now ready to explore the multiple attitudes that may be present in the poem. Examination of diction, images, and details suggests the speaker's attitude and contributes to understanding. Think about the tone of the poem and how the author has created it. Remember that usually the tone or attitude cannot be named with a single word - think complexity. S Shifts Rarely does a poem begin and end the poetic experience in the same place. As is true of most us, the poet's understanding of an experience is a gradual realization, and the poem is a reflection of that understanding or insight. Watch for the following keys to shifts: • key words, (but, yet, however, although) • punctuation (dashes, periods, colons, ellipsis) • stanza divisions • changes in line or stanza length or both • irony • changes in sound that may indicate changes in meaning • changes in diction T Title Now look at the title again, but this time on an interpretive level. What new insight does the title provide in understanding the poem. T Theme What is the poem saying about the human experience, motivation, or condition? What subject or subjects does the poem address? What do you learn about those subjects? What idea does the poet want you take away with you concerning these subjects? Remember that the theme of any work of literature is stated in a complete sentence an ...
