Ciaran Carson
The poem "Belfast Confetti" by Ciaran Carson describes a riot in Belfast through linguistic and typographical imagery. As the riot squad moves in, various objects rain down like punctuation marks. The streets of the city become blocked by stops, colons, and other typographical symbols, disorienting the speaker and making escape impossible. By textualizing the city through this unconventional use of language and typography, Carson represents Belfast as both a physical space undergoing violence and a textual space under the control of the poet through manipulation of words on the page.

An African Narrative by Olaudah Equiano (1791)
Please read this document and if you are assigned to do so, submit your answers to the questions on the Document Worksheet as determined by your instructor.
While there was land aplenty in America, the key to the American dream of prosperity was labor: one's own and others'. The primary labor group was the family, but added to those laborers tied by marriage and birth were those tied by wages ("free" laborers), contracts (indentured servants), and coercion (slaves). Although Indian and African slavery had been part of the colonization process in the Americas since the conquistadores, the importation and use of African slaves in the English mainland colonies did not commence in earnest until the late seventeenth century. The exploitation of enslaved Africans and their descendants then increased tremendously in the eighteenth century, especially in the southern colonies, although slaves were found in every colony.
First African and then European traders carried Olaudah Equiano (1745–1797), an Ibo of Nigeria, into the trap of trans-Atlantic slavery when he was a boy of eleven. Slavery as an institution was not new to Equiano; his father had slaves, but he found that the Euro-American concept of slavery was different from the African one. Equiano survived the passage from Africa to the colonies and was bought by a Virginia planter, and shortly thereafter, by an English naval officer. He served on warships during the Seven Years' War and then, as the property of a Quaker merchant, participated in the trade between the West Indies and the southern colonies. Equiano bought his freedom in 1766 and supported himself as a sailor. His life did not parallel the lives of most of those enslaved, for he learned to read and write and gained his own liberty. Greatly influenced by evangelical ministers who preached the equality of souls, he used his freedom and education to work for the abolition of slavery.

The first object which saluted my eyes when I arrived on the coast, was the sea, and a slave ship, which was then riding at anchor, and waiting for its cargo. These filled me with astonishment, which was soon converted into terror, when I was carried on board. I was immediately handled, and tossed up to see if I were sound, by some of the crew; and I was now persuaded that I had gotten into a world of bad spirits, and that they were going to kill me. Their complexions, too, differing so much fr.

Shakespeare Introduction
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor born around 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote 37 plays and numerous sonnets and poems. His plays can be categorized as tragedies, histories, or comedies. Shakespeare's plays were performed in polygonal theaters like the Globe with three levels, an open center stage surrounded on three sides by the audience, and an upper stage used as a balcony. Actors in Shakespeare's time were all male, even for female roles, and costumes were passed down and not necessarily fashionable. Theater was seen as just above brothels in society at the time.
Renaissance
The Renaissance began in 14th century Italy and spread north, though was delayed in England due to political upheaval. It was marked by a surge of creative energy across all areas of culture and a shift from a focus on religion and the afterlife to an increased interest in life on earth and human potential. A "Renaissance man" referred to someone accomplished in many areas, unlike the medieval ideal man. Henry VIII established the Church of England to obtain a divorce and father a male heir, taking six wives and only achieving three heirs, one male. The Renaissance saw advances in technology and great cultural figures in areas like art, literature, and science.
Medieval romance
Medieval romances featured larger-than-life characters like knights motivated by love, faith or adventure in exotic settings involving supernatural elements or mistaken identities. Many celebrated King Arthur and his knights, where knights would select a lady as their "chosen one" aside from their wife, promising to be devoted, discreet and polite, giving the lady a ring. Modern acts of chivalry include offering your jacket if cold, holding doors for others, standing when a woman leaves or arrives at the table, getting the car in rain, walking closest to the street, offering a ride home, opening car doors, and introducing her to others.
Conflict
The document discusses four main types of conflict: internal conflict which occurs within a character's mind; external conflict which involves a character against an outside force; man vs. self which involves a character struggling with their own thoughts or feelings; and man vs. man, society, or nature which involve a character in conflict with other people, societal pressures, or natural elements. Examples are provided for each type of conflict, such as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde illustrating man vs. self internal conflict and superhero movies often featuring man vs. man external conflict between heroes and villains.
Medieval romance
Many medieval romances celebrate King Arthur and his knights, where knights would select a "chosen lady" to devote themselves to secretly and courteously, often giving the lady a ring. These romances featured larger-than-life heroes motivated by love and honor in exotic settings involving supernatural elements and mistaken identities. Modern acts of chivalry include offering one's jacket if cold, holding doors for others, standing when a woman leaves or arrives at the table, driving in the rain, walking on the street side, offering a ride home, and introducing acquaintances.
Intro to Canterbury Tales
The Canterbury Tales is considered one of the first major works written in English after the Norman invasion of 1066 shifted the dominant language and literature. It follows a group of pilgrims on a journey to Canterbury and uses a frame narrative structure, with the main story providing context for secondary stories told by each character. Through description in the prologue, Chaucer characterizes each pilgrim according to their social station and appearance, employing stereotypes that provide quick insights but are not entirely accurate representations of the individuals.
Epic Characteristics
An epic is a long narrative poem that celebrates the deeds of a heroic figure and reflects timeless themes. Epics are characterized by a legendary hero of noble birth who performs courageous acts requiring great strength in a vast setting that may involve supernatural beings. The epic uses formal language and is serious in tone, maintaining rhythm through devices like caesura and employing alliteration and kennings to metaphorically describe people and objects.

- 5. Exeter Book Riddle 26 An enemy came and took away my life And my strength also in the world; then wetted me, Dipped me in water; then took me thence; Placed me in the sun, where I lost all my hair. The knife’s edge cut me--its impurities ground away; Fingers folded me. And the bird’s delight With swift drops made frequent traces Over the brown surface; swallowed the tree-dye With a measure of liquid; travelling across me, Left a dark track. A good man covered me With protecting boards, with stretched skin over me; Adorned me with gold. Then the work of smiths Decorated me with strands of woven wire. Now may the ornaments and the red dye And the precious possessions everywhere honor The Guardian of peoples. It were otherwise folly. …Ask me my name… (Translation by Paull F. Baum) Exeter Cathedral Library 3501, folio 107r
- 6. Another Riddle The creature ate its words-- it seemed to me strangely weird when I heard this wonder: that it had devoured human speech. A thief in the darkness gloriously mouthed the source of knowledge-- but thee thief was not the least bit wiser for the words in his mouth.
