18th century English poetry was dominated by Alexander Pope and was characterized by rational thought and practical subjects over emotion. Pope's poetry set the standard technically with its perfect meter and rhyme schemes. His verses explored philosophical questions about the relationship between the individual and society through satire and political commentary. Pope encouraged using reason to understand humanity and nature rather than blind feelings or ambition.

"For poetry the idea is everything; the rest is a world of illusion, of divine illusion. Poetry attaches its emotion to the idea; the idea is fact." This is said by Matthew Arnold. According to him, IDEA is supreme and in poetry, it is the idea that matters, that are attached by poetry through emotions. According to him THE FUNCTION OF POETRY is to interpret life for us, to console us, to sustain us. He says if SCIENCE IS APPEARANCE then the POETRY IS EXPRESSION and there is no appearance without expression. Then Arnold talks about setting our standard for poetry high. We must accustom ourselves to HIGH STANDARD and STRICT JUDGEMENT and there is no place for CHARLATANISM in poetry. Charlatanism is for confusing the difference between excellent and inferior, sound and unsound or only half sound, true and untrue or only half true. Judging with little differences has paramount importance, so there is no place for charlatanism in poetry.

Largely self-taught (in his time Roman Catholics were barred from attending English universities), Pope defended the value of education in Greek and Latin; his own love of the classics inspired him to produce new translations of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey. “A little learning is a dangerous thing,” warned Pope in pleading for a broader and more thorough survey of the past. Pope’s poetry is as controlled and refined as a Poussin painting or a Bach fugue. His choice of the heroic couplet for most of his numerous satires, as well as for his translations of Homer, reflects his commitment to the fundamentals of balance and order. The concentrated brilliance and polish of each two-rhymed line bears out his claim that “True ease in writing comes from art, not chance,/As those move easiest who have learned to dance.” Pope’s most famous poem was his Essay on Man. Like Milton’s Paradise Lost, but on a smaller scale, the Essay tries to assess humankind’s place in the universal scheme. But whereas Milton explained evil in terms of human will, Pope—a Catholic turned deist—envisioned evil as part of God’s design fo.

Sample writing assignment: Baudelairean Irony. The writing assignments have improved significantly in the past couple of modules: the arguments are clearer and are, in general, well supported by evidence from the texts. I’m still seeing too many, however, where the main argument emerges in the final sentence or two. When you find that happening (i.e. when the final sentence or so makes a very different claim from the opening sentence), you need to start again, using that last sentence as your new opening sentence. Usually this happens when your argument develops during the course of writing the piece. This is a good thing as it shows your ideas are developing, but it does mean that you need to rewrite your assignment to make sure it supports your new or revised argument. As always, I will be looking for a clear argument, strong textual evidence, and a well-formatted and written response. Please be sure to provide a Works Cited. This can be in any form you are most comfortable with (AP, MLA, Chicago, Oxford, etc.), but should make it clear what is being referred to and where that item can be found. Please note: the 250-word limit (plus or minus 10%) applies only to the text of your argument. It does not include the works cited or the heading information. Sample question: What attitude does Baudelaire adopt to the poor in “Let’s beat up the poor”? A. Student Writing Assignment, Module 4 Although the violence depicted in Charles Baudelaire’s “Let’s beat up the poor” might appear to reflect a negative attitude toward the poor, the prose poem itself resists articulating a clear position, choosing instead to highlight the shortcomings in contemporary responses to the poor. The speaker in fact draws attention early in the piece to the debates about economic and social policy that took place in France in the period by noting that he had consumed books “dealing with the art of making nations happy, wise, and rich” (37), but the poem’s multiple ironies mean that the reader is left uncertain about its attitude toward the poor. The speaker aligns himself with Socrates through a reference to his “Demon” (37), but rather than engaging in a philosophical conversation, he decides that the best response to the pleading gaze of a beggar is to beat him up, presumably to show him who has the power and who doesn’t. This is not, however, an act of bravery in any way: the speaker carefully checks that there are no policemen in the area. The beggar is initially beaten down, but then rises up to attack the speaker, thereby asserting the political power of the proletariat. The speaker claims to be thrilled that the beggar—the representative of the poor—has learnt that he must take responsibility for his own future and rise up against the bourgeoisie in order to achieve equality, but the reader is left wondering whether such lessons are to be taken seriously in any way. The focus, in.

Size separation, or sieving, is a technique to segregate particles by size, vital in pharmaceuticals, food processing, and mining. Methods include sieving (particles pass through mesh sieves), sedimentation (based on settling velocities in fluid), cyclone separation (using centrifugal forces), and filtration (using barriers with specific pore sizes). Applications range from ensuring uniform drug formulations to grading grains and extracting minerals. Size separation offers efficiency, precision, and versatility, making it essential for quality control and consistency across various industries.

In this webinar, Felipe Mondragon from Tech Impact shared the basic understanding of how cyberattacks happen and how to prevent them. Small to medium-sized nonprofit organizations are specifically susceptible due to their lack of cybersecurity policies and staff training. The good news is that there are lots of things you can do to protect your organization, even if you’re not a security expert.
