The document discusses different types of conceits used in poetry. A Petrarchan conceit draws a parallel between two dissimilar things, often comparing a man's suffering in love to physical elements like ice or fire. Examples provided use conceits comparing love to twilight or fleas. Metaphysical conceits use unexpected comparisons from odd places in a witty, intellectual way and were pioneered by poet John Donne.
I used poetry to introduce students to Maslow, and Maslow to get students to explore poetry. It was a day of self reflection and analysis. My use of Maslow stresses the need to have a safe, belonging environment if students are to succeed academically.
This is the summary of Church Going. This is one of the poem of Philip Larkin. Philip Larkin is one of the most prominent poet of English Literature and Language.
I have compiled this book so that you can get it printed. Its available in PDF form and you can download it, i will leave the option open. Its an anthology taught in NUML and students often have difficulty finding poems.

HERE I AM SHARING MY PRESENTATION OF MY M.A COURSE AS MY ACADEMIC WORK.I AM SUBMITTING THIS PRESENTATION TO DR. DILIP BARAD , SMT.S.B. GARDI DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH MKBU
This presentation is a part of my academic presentation of The Renaissance Literature , Department of M A English M K Bhavnagar University and it is submitted to Prof. Dr Dilip Barad sir .
The rapid development of the Internet, in particular, the dissemination of Web is showing that the phrase “knowledge is power” is real and possible. We live in the exciting time when the world is changing with the growth of the global knowledge, and artificial intelligence, in particular, Semantic Web is taking the important role in the change.
In this talk, I will tell how knowledge in computers is now standing its ground by Linked Data and Social Media data. Formal knowledge representation has been discussed in Artificial Intelligence for a long time and it was applied to the real world problems as expert systems in 1980s. But the knowledge in the expert systems is articulated by knowledge engineers so that it was isolated from the information and data in the world. It results that the knowledge could neither bear the complexity of the real world nor adapt the change of the environment in the real world. Linked Data and Social Media Data are now filling the gap between knowledge and the real world. Linked Data is less formalized and consistent than the formal knowledge but its structure and content are reflected by those in the real world. Formal knowledge can give the structure to Linked Data as well as knowledge can be generated as abstraction of Linked Data. Social Media Data is even less formalized and consistent than Linked Data but it represents the dynamics of human activities in the real world. The implicit structure in Social Media Data can be also the source of knowledge. I will discuss the value and potential of Linked Data and Social Media Data through our experimental projects such as those for LOD in culture and natural science and those for Nico Nico Douga as Social Media.
1. Conceit: an elaborate metaphor
Creates a striking
parallel between two very
dissimilar things
See the back wall for
YOURS!
2. Petrarchan Conceit
The comparison is usually an impassioned man suffering
because of a beautiful but cold woman
“My love is like to ice, and I to fire”
“Or how comes it that my exceeding heat is not delayed
by her heart frozen cold”
3. More Petrarchan Conceits
“In me thou see’st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest”
4. “MARK but this flea, and mark in this,
How little that which thou deniest me is ;
It suck'd me first, and now sucks thee,
And in this flea our two bloods mingled be”
5. BUSY old fool, unruly Sun,
Why dost thou thus,
Through windows, and through curtains, call on us ?
Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run ?
Saucy pedantic wretch, go chide
Late school-boys and sour prentices,
Go tell court-huntsmen that the king will ride,
Call country ants to harvest offices ;
6. Metaphysical Conceits
Uses witty, unexpected comparisons drawn from very odd places.
Highly intellectual and complicated logic that controls the poem
8. Metaphysical Poetry
“For God’s sake hold your tongue and let me love”
Described as harsh and angry
Very intellectual—reading them is often like trying
to solve a puzzle
Critics: “Just showing off”
