This summary analyzes John Donne's Holy Sonnet XII. The sonnet questions why humans have dominance over animals and nature, considering humans are more sinful. It wonders why animals submit to humans who are weaker. The sonnet asserts that God created all things and subdued them to humans, even though he is not bound by sin or nature. It marvels that God would die for such corrupt humans. The document discusses various themes in the sonnet like original sin, humanity's unworthiness, and pity for animals. It also analyzes Donne's punctuation and the contemplative rather than dramatic tone of this sonnet.
Paradise Lost is a poem by John Milton written in blank verse. This is based on the biblical theme of the fall of man. It depicts the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Milton stated his purpose in Book I is to "justify the ways of God to men".
In the last two books of the epic, Milton includes almost a complete summary of Genesis. This lengthy section may seem anti-climactic, but Milton's mission was to show not only what caused man's fall, but also the consequences upon the world, both bad and good. A concept central to this tale is that of the “felix culpa” or fortunate fall. This is the philosophy that the good which ultimately evolves as a result of the fall—God's mercy, the coming of Christ, redemption and salvation—leaves us in a better place, with opportunity for greater good than would have been possible without the fall.

Greece, Italy and England did adorn;
The first in loftiness of thought surpassed.
The second in majesty; in both the last.”

In this poetry, the speaker insults Death as a personified foe. Most people fear this enemy, yet in this sonnet, the speaker effectively reprimands him. The speaker makes it clear that he is not afraid of death and does not believe that death should be so confident in himself. The readers are given an ironic sense of comfort by the confident tone of “Death, be not Proud” and Death’s straight confrontation since it implies that Death is not at all anything to be afraid of but that Death will ultimately be defeated by something even greater.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. HOLY SONNET XII JOHN DONNE MARIE SINGLETON SECTION L3
2. Sonnet Annotation Lines 1-3 Why are we by all creatures waited on? Begins with a question. Presents the mood and theme for the sonnet. Why do the prodigal elements supply Prodigal elements – animals in nature Life and food to me, being more pure than I, Author is curious as to why humans were picked to be superior, considering their sinful nature
3. Sonnet Annotation 4-6 Simpler, and further from corruption? Questioning why animals are not put above humans, as they are “simpler, and further from corruption” Why brook'st thou, ignorant horse, subjection? Questions why we subject horses (and in essence, all creautres) to our will. Why dost thou, bull, and bore so seelily, Again, questions other animals as to their subjection.
4. Sonnet Annotation 7-9 Dissemble weakness, and by one man's stroke die, Asserts man’s dominance over creatures by exhibiting the ability to kill easily Whose whole kind you might swallow and feed upon? Questions why animals do not dominate humans because of their ingrown nature to kill and feed upon others. Most animals are larger and therefore should dominate humans. Weaker I am, woe is me, and worse than you, Author states that humans are, in fact, weaker than animals.
5. Sonnet Annotation 10-12 You have not sinned, nor need be timorous. States the pure nature of animals who have never committed or had the chance to commit sins. But wonder at a greater wonder, for to us Asks the creatures to ponder upon the one who made us (God). Created nature doth these things subdue Asserts that God made the creatures and therefore, chose the ones to subdue to humans.
6. Sonnet Annotation 13-14 But their Creator, whom sin nor nature tied, Believes God has no correlation to sin or nature, but is rather a distant, unconnected power. For us, His creatures, and His foes, hath died. Asserts that creatures, animals and humans alike, and those tempted by the Devil have been saved because God sent his son, Jesus to save all.
7. “He [Donne] marvels that the Creator of all creatures died for humans, the most corrupt of his creations.” This one line summation of the sonnet tells the reader almost all he or she would need to know. The sonnet is, in fact, about Donne’s awe that Jesus Christ died for such a corrupt and deceitful group of creatures when other creations are more worthy of his love and sacrifice. Bromberg, Howard. “Holy Sonnets.” Masterplots II: Christian Literature. Pasadena, California: Salem Press Inc. 2008.

8. Ezekiel 18:4. “Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.” In this quote from Ezekiel comes the idea that all who sin will die. This begs the questio – what becomes of animals after their death? They do not sin, as stated in Holy Sonnet 12, so do they experience the same afterlife as humans? Are animals more worthy of salvation and a pleasant afterlife than humans who sin? If so, then why did God send his Son to save humans? Is it so they can experience this same afterlife? Holy Bible. King James Edition.
9. The Algebra of Holy Sonnet 12. States that this sonnet holds nothing to be called “figurative”; rather, a straightforward sonnet Believes the first lines are a comparison of the three terms : Elements, Animals, Man States that it is “simple algebra” as to hierarchy Elements, Animals > Man; yet, Man > Elements, Animals Line 12 adds Created Nature to list bringing the hierarchy to Created Nature > Elements and Animals > Man By introducing a fifth term – God – to the mix, the hierarchy is yet again changed. God is higher than the highest, yet lower than the lowest. God > Created Nature > Elements and Animals > Man > God God created all and is superior, yet a servant, to all Fenner, Arthur.

10. Original sin. It should be duly noted that many of Donne’s sonnets explore the theme of Original Sin. In this annotation, we will look at a sonnet closely related to Holy Sonnet XII. “It is because of this conviction of man’s unworthiness that the Holy Sonnets are so concerned with Original Sin.” “The final mystery of our salvation, the poet agrees, lies in the tremendous act of a “Creator, whom sin, nor nature tyed,” but who made of himself a blood sacrifice “for us, his Creatures, and his foes.” (Holy Sonnet XIII). This article explores how Donne uses Original Sin in his Holy Sonnets. In Holy Sonnet XII, Donne is perplexed as to how a race as sinful and corrupt as humans, can be dominant over pure and simple animals. This idea so perplexed Donne that it is explored throughout his series of Holy Sonnets and yet, never quite solved. It is something to be accepted and something to live with, not something that Donne has the power to change or the mental capacity to understand. Augustinian Spirituality and the Holy Sonnets of John DonnePatrickGrantELH, Vol. 38, No. 4 (Dec., 1971), pp. 542-561Published by: The Johns Hopkins University PressStable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2872265
11. Pity for the Animals. Yetanother theme in Holy Sonnet XII is that of pity for the animals. Renaker takes Holy Sonnet IX: If poysonousmineralls, and if that tree, Whose fruit threw death on else immortall us, If lecherous goats, if serpents envious Cannot be damn'd; Alas; why should I bee? Why should intent or reason, borne in mee, Make sinnes, else equall, in mee, more heinous? And mercy being easie, and glorious To God, in his sterne wrath, why threatens hee? But who am I, that dare dispute with thee ?O God,Oh!ofthine only worthy blood, And my teares, make a heavenly Lethean flood, And drowne in it my sinnesblackememorie. That thou remember them,someclaime as debt, I thinke it mercy, if thou wilt forget.
12. Pity for the Animals (cont.) In the previous sonnet, Donne exhibits an anger and almost hatred toward animals for not being “damned” as he is. Animals who do not have to experience sin are considered “better off.” However, by Holy Sonnet XII, this hatred and anger becomes “concession and pity at their inability to the Incarnation.” Renaker, David. "Do Donne's Holy Sonnets Tell a Story?" The Atheist Seventeenth Century Website. N.p., 2002-2004. Web. 4 Mar. 2010.
13. Punctuation. Matters. “Do you think that the punctuation of the last line of this sonnet is merely an insignificant detail? The sonnet begins with a valiant struggle with death calling on all the forces of intellect and drama to vanquish the enemy. But it is ultimately about overcoming the seemingly insuperable barriers separating life, death and eternal life.” This quote serves to signify the importance of Donne’s punctuation in his sonnets. In Holy Sonnet XII, Donne uses semi-colons to separate his thoughts, yet keep them connected and organized. There are no exclamation marks – no hysterical emotion, but a tone of resignation and wonder. His language may be hard to follow for the modern analyzer : Seelily - sillily Margaret Edson, Wit: A Play. Faber & Faber. (1999) ISBN: 10-0571198775
14. No Drama. Compares Sonnets IV, XI, XII, XIII, XV, XVI. All lack dramatic impact. “Without that sense of crisis and disorder which is central to the other poems, there is a loss of immediacy. We might also feel that, while never complacent, the sonnets of this last gtoup [group] reflect more a crisis lived through and overcome than a crisis presently experienced in the act of writing. They are essentially contemplative in nature and their starting point is an image, a question or a stated truth which is posited in the first part of the poem and elaborated or answered in the second.” “There is an "audience" as present as in the secular poems. It might consist of listening Soul, it might even be bull, boar, and ignorant horse, as in XII, but the effect is constant: the speaker can answer, demonstrate and resolve as he could not when lacking both audience and authority.” Bellette, Anthony F. "Little Worlds Made Cunningly: Significant Form in Donne's 'Holy Sonnets' and 'Goodfriday, 1613'". Studies in Philology, Vol. 72, No. 3. University of North Carolina Press: 1975. 322-347.
