How to analyse poetry
This document provides guidance on how to analyze a poem, beginning with reading it multiple times to fully experience it before analysis. It advises paying attention to structural elements like the title, tone, structure, sound, and imagery. Read the poem aloud and note punctuation to understand the intended voice.

Religious imagery and metaphysical poetry
Here are the key points about Calvinism that are relevant to understanding Donne:
- Calvinism teaches the doctrine of total depravity - that all humans are born sinful and unable to save themselves due to original sin. This view of inherent human sinfulness would have been influential on Donne's theology.
- Calvinism believes in predestination - that God has eternally decreed who will be saved and who will be condemned, independent of any human actions or choices. This doctrine removes free will and places salvation entirely in God's hands. It would have led Donne to grapple with questions of faith, election, and God's sovereignty.
- Calvinism was the dominant Protestant theology during Donne's lifetime,

Remember by Christina Rossetti summary and analysis
Christina Rossetti was a 19th century English poet who was part of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Her most famous work was the sonnet "Remember", which deals with themes of loss, death, and memory. The 14-line poem follows a Petrarchan rhyme scheme and uses imagery of departure to a "silent land" to represent death. In the volta, the speaker's tone shifts and she asks to be forgotten rather than remembered, as remembering would only make her beloved sad. The form and themes are reflective of Pre-Raphaelite philosophies around accepting mortality and spiritual struggles over physical ones.

Romanticism intro
The document provides background information on the Romantic era in three parts. First, it discusses events in the late 18th century that influenced Romanticism, including the English Civil Wars, Enlightenment, American and French Revolutions, and Industrial Revolution. Second, it examines how changes like enclosure acts and ideas of "consent of the governed" from thinkers like Locke and Rousseau impacted people. Third, it outlines key elements of Romanticism like a focus on emotions, nature, childhood, imagination, and the idea that poetry stems from feelings recollected in tranquility, as Wordsworth described.
Great vowel shift
The Great Vowel Shift was a major change in pronunciation of the English language between the 14th and 17th centuries, causing spelling and pronunciation to become less flexible and more standardized. It was likely caused by a combination of factors including the Black Death plague, increased social mobility, contact between speakers of different languages, and the invention of the printing press. As a result of this shift, the pronunciation of English changed drastically over time and helps explain some of the irregular spellings we see today.
Geoffrey Chaucer
Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400) was an English author who lived in London and worked for the English royalty in diplomatic duties. He is best known for his work The Canterbury Tales, a collection of stories told by a group of pilgrims as they travel to Canterbury Cathedral. The pilgrims come from various social classes and tell stories that provide insights into English life in the late-14th century. Though Chaucer intended to include 120 tales, he left the work unfinished at his death around 1400.
Very Early British History
The Romans ruled Britain from around AD 40 to 410, after which various Germanic tribes including the Saxons invaded. The Saxons brought their own language and culture and eventually became the dominant people in Britain. In 597, Christian missionaries arrived and introduced Latin and early literature. Vikings also began invading in the late 8th century and ruled parts of England until the 11th century. The epic poem Beowulf was written down in Old English between the 8th-11th centuries, describing events from the 6th century among Scandinavian peoples. In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded from Normandy and defeated the English at the Battle of Hastings, bringing Norman rule.
Rogerian Argument
This document provides an overview of Rogerian argument. It explains that Rogerian argument was developed by psychologist Carl Rogers and emphasizes problem solving and consensus building. It allows the author to appear open-minded by recognizing valid points in opposing views. The document contrasts Rogerian argument with Toulmin argument, noting that Rogerian argument uses a nonconfrontational tone that respects different perspectives and seeks common ground, rather than trying to prove one side is completely right. It provides a visual model of each approach and offers tips for writing a Rogerian argument paper, such as stating each position, finding areas of understanding, and appealing to shared benefits of compromise.
Toulmin presentation
This document discusses Stephen Toulmin's modern argument model from the 1950s. [1] It focuses on informal logic and probability rather than certainty. [2] The model has seven components: claim, data, warrant, backing, rebuttal, qualifier, and grounds. [3] The enthymeme outlines the core components of claim (main point), data (evidence/reasons), and warrant (unstated assumption connecting data and claim).
Women19th century
This document provides background context on Kate Chopin's short story "Story of an Hour" by discussing the time period in which it was written and social norms for women in late 19th century America. Women had very little autonomy and control over their lives as they could not vote, own property, pursue careers or education, and faced losing their children and possessions if they divorced. However, upon their husband's death, widows gained independence, suggesting this context is crucial to understanding Louise Mallard's reaction to news of her husband's death in the story.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Sonnets
- 1. Sonnets Or, why we care about rhyme schemes © Ms. Mohlere
- 2. What the heck is a sonnet? A 14 line poem Must have a strict rhyme scheme and structure, although some poems have played with that structure. Comes from the Italian word “sonetto,” meaning “little poem.”
- 3. Petrarch, the great Sonneteer Although he didn’t create the Sonnet, the Italian poet Petrarch, is thought to have perfected it. Therefore, early sonnets are called “Petrarchan sonnets.” 1304 – 1374 Born and raised in Tuscany. His father wanted him to train as a lawyer, but he said, “I couldn’t face making a merchandise of my mind.”
- 4. Ok, but who is Laura? Petrarch was a priest for a short period. After he left, he caught sight of a woman named “Laura” who inspired him for years to come. It is thought that they had little to no contact. (She may have been married to another man.) Is she real, or an idealized woman?
- 5. The form Two parts, an octet (8 lines) and a sestet (6 lines). The octet presents an argument, a problem, or some kind of initial idea. The sestet responds to it, solves it, or makes a comment on it. Shifts in tone. The two sections are meant to be separate.
- 6. Rhyme Scheme Octet (sometimes called two quatrains): A B B A A B B A Sestet: C D C C D D
- 7. Rima #140 - Translated by Wyatt The long love that in my thought doth harbor, And in mine heart doth keep his residence, Into my face presseth with bold pretense And therein campeth, spreading his banner. She that me learneth to love and suffer And will that my trust and lust's negligence Be reined by reason, shame, and reverence With his hardiness taketh displeasure. Wherewithal unto the heart's forest he fleeth, Leaving his enterprise with pain and cry, And there him hideth, and not appeareth. What may I do, when my master feareth, But in the field with him to live and die? For good is the life ending faithfully.
- 8. And then this guy got his hands on the form… To be continued…
