Introduction of "The Revival of Learning (1400-1550)Kishan55555
This document provides an overview of the Revival of Learning period from 1400-1550 in England. It discusses key events like the War of the Roses, the introduction of the printing press, the Protestant Reformation started by Martin Luther, and lists the Tudor rulers during this time. The revival of classical learning and development of humanism during the Renaissance is also examined, along with some of the major literary works and authors of the period like More, Tyndale, Wyatt and Surrey who helped establish new forms like the sonnet.
Predatory journals prioritize self-interest over scholarship. They do not conduct proper peer review and instead offer quick publication for a fee without editing. In contrast, legitimate open access journals maintain high standards. It is important to check if a journal is indexed in reputable databases like DOAJ or has an impact factor from JCR. Potential predatory journals can be identified using lists from Beall's or Cabell's. Librarians can help determine if a journal is predatory by investigating the publisher, editorial board, and review process.
The Cavalier poets were a group of 17th century English poets who supported King Charles I during the English Civil War between 1642-1651. Some of the most prominent Cavalier poets were Thomas Carew, Richard Lovelace, Robert Herrick, and John Suckling. Cavalier poetry focused on themes of sensual love, carpe diem or seizing the day, and enjoying life rather than following moral codes.

The document provides an overview of the Neoclassic period of drama from the mid-17th to early 18th centuries. It discusses key characteristics including a focus on decorum, unity of time and place, and portraying the lives of upper classes. Two main play types of the period were comedy focused on lower classes and tragedy on royals. Notable playwrights of the Neoclassic period in France included Jean Racine, Molière, and Pierre Corneille, known as the father of French tragedy. An example play by Corneille discussed is Le Cid. The document also briefly describes the proscenium theater format common during this era.
These two poems focus on the hardships faced by average Americans in the early 20th century due to diseases, poverty, and war. "Rhapsody on a Windy Night" by T.S. Eliot emphasizes disease and poverty through descriptions of a woman with smallpox cracks on her face and torn, stained dress. "The River Merchant's Wife: A Letter" by Ezra Pound highlights the economic difficulties ordinary workers endured, noting that husbands often had to leave their spouses due to lack of money and resources, as depicted in the excerpt of a wife's sorrowful letter about her husband departing five months ago. Both poems convey the depression and suffering of the time through their gloomy, somber tones.
The document analyzes Edmund Spenser's poem Amoretti LXXIX. It summarizes that the poem praises the speaker's beloved for her virtuous mind and gentle wit over her physical beauty. This perspective contrasts with other poems of the time that focused on beauty. The analysis then examines similarities and differences between Spenser's poem and works by Shakespeare, Keats, Spenser himself, and Raleigh regarding their treatment of themes like beauty, aging, and love of inner qualities versus outward appearance.
Russian literature flourished under Peter I and Catherine I due to Western influences. The 18th century saw experimentation with new forms like novels, poetry, and drama which differed from previous Muscovite literature. Notable writers included Antioch Kantemir who produced satire and translated Western works, Alexander Sumarokov who established Russian drama, and Michael Lomonosov who helped found Moscow University and established the Russian literary language. Literature promoted education and science while also serving to critique society under Catherine's reign. The 18th century represented a period of cultural transformation as Russia modernized by adopting Western literary forms and values.
The document discusses the history and evolution of lyric poetry across different time periods. It begins by defining lyric poetry as emotional, musical poems often about love or nature. It then outlines some common lyric forms like sonnets, odes, and elegies. It discusses the flourishing of lyrics in the Elizabethan era and some notable poets. Subsequently, it notes how Victorians struggled with the genre and blended lyrics with other forms. The document traces lyrics becoming more free-versed and diverse in topics in modern times as poets rejected traditional structures. In conclusion, it summarizes that lyrics remained a dominant poetic form that refined over time from Elizabethan to Victorian to modern eras.

A writer might describe a person, place, object, or even memory of special significance. The descriptive essay strives to communicate a deeper meaning through the description. In a descriptive essay, the writer should show through the use of colorful words and sensory details.
5. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Expository: In an expository essay, the writer explains or defines a topic, using facts, statistics, and examples. Expository writing encompasses a wide range of essay variations, such as the comparison and contrast essay, the cause and effect essay, and the “how to” or process essay. Reflective: A reflective essay consists of reflections or thoughts on some topic, which is generally of an abstract nature; for example; (a) habits, qualities, (b) social, political and domestic topics (c) philosophical subjects, (d) religious and theological topics.
6. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Imaginative :Essays on subjects such as the feelings and experiences of the sailor wrecked on a desert island may be called imaginative Essays. In such the writer is called to place himself in imagination in a position of which he has had no actual experience. Such subjects as "If I were a king," or "The autobiography of a horse," would call for imaginative essays.

The document provides an introduction to poetic devices commonly used in poetry such as metaphor, simile, personification, imagery, oxymoron, hyperbole, tone, mood, allusion and repetition. It then discusses different types of poems including rhyming poems, free verse, narrative poems, and sonnets. The workbook aims to help teens analyze poems by having them answer comprehension questions, visualize images, and respond with their own writing.
This document provides instructions for a writing assignment asking students to write a 3-5 page essay connecting a personal life event to The Hunger Games novel. Students are asked to choose a quote from the novel that relates to a personal experience, write an introduction providing context for the quote, and tell a story about the personal event in their life. The essay should be in MLA format, include a Works Cited page citing The Hunger Games, and students are to highlight and comment on specific sections of their essay for feedback.
The document discusses various aspects of analyzing poetry, including figurative language. It begins by urging the reader to not give up on their dreams. It states that without dreams, life is meaningless. It then provides examples of analyzing a poem, including identifying similes, personification, and metaphors. It also discusses writing a poetry analysis essay and identifying elements such as rhyme scheme and imagery.
The document provides tips for writing a descriptive essay. It explains that a descriptive essay aims to use sensory details to give readers a vivid picture or experience of a person, place, or object, rather than tell its meaning. It outlines a five-step writing process: 1) prewriting to choose a topic and brainstorm details, 2) drafting using vivid language and sensory details, 3) revising to refine descriptions and ensure a clear picture, 4) editing for grammar and style, and 5) getting feedback by sharing the essay. Providing concrete sensory details through similes, metaphors and involving multiple senses helps bring the subject to life for readers.
Overall Instruction· For any of these topic choices, you must q.docxalfred4lewis58146
Overall Instruction:
· For any of these topic choices, you must quote directly from your chosen works and include page numbers in a parenthetical citation after quotes. Instructions for in-text, parenthetical citations are attached (see pages 3-5 of this handout).
· Choose quoted passages that function as strong evidence and help you communicate your main message about the works of literature you are analyzing. Once you quote a passage, be sure to USE it: that is, interpret what it’s saying and tie it back to your main point about the text. Through your interpretation (analysis) of each and every quote, you should advance your paper’s main argument (thesis).
· Avoid summary! In none of these assignment choices do I ask you to summarize or retell the storyline. Assume your audience has read the pieces that you’re writing about. Instead of summary, I want your creative-analytical response to the literature.
Topics:
1. Put any character in conversation with a character from another work by a different author. Createthe dialogue they might have. Note that your dialogue should capture an important aspect of each character and should be focused on one main theme. You might, for example, have two characters discuss their views about their adversaries or lovers, their plans for dealing with a similar problem they have (e.g. unfaithful spouses or low social status), their different encounters with the underworld, and so on. Write a dialogue (of any length) between the two characters and attach it to an essay of 4-5 pages explaining the reasons you chose to write this particular dialogue and the message you wanted to get across about the role these characters play in their respective works and the burdens or successes they represent. Keep in mind that you don’t have to choose a work’s main characters; it would be very interesting to choose minor characters who play a smaller but critical role in the text. The best essays will illuminate a surprising intersection between the character and texts, as well as an important message about both your characters and the works they represent. Be sure to quote from the original texts in your dialogue and accompanying essay. An alternate approach to this essay choice would be to put two different authors from our syllabus into dialogue with each other.
2. Imagine that you’re planning a film based on a pairing or group of works from the syllabus. Write a description of your film, making sure to answer the questions: why make a film on your chosen works? What message, drawn from the original texts, are you trying to get across, and why do you think it’s important for a contemporary audience to hear this message? Also, think about the stylistic decisions that a film director makes and explain how you would like to see your film made, and why. (Is it a big- budget action film, a romance with recognizable stars, a musical, a comedy, or a “quieter” family drama?) Write an essay of 6-8 pages in which you discuss the .

Step by Step Guide for Writing Substance and Critical Appreciation
1. Step by Step Guide for Writing Substance and Critical
Appreciation
eng-literature.com/2020/02/step-by-step-guide-for-writing-substance-critical-appreciation.html
Substance-writing implies a condensed reproduction of the original passage. Substance
is the rewriting in the candidate’s own words of an original passage which will be brief,
clear, and accurate summary containing only its main points or essential ideas.
Step by step guide for writing substance:
Your substance should be approximately one third of the original text. In case of poetry it
should be around 50-60 words.
Substance should be generally written in a single paragraph.
1/7
2. Read and re-read the given text carefully for several times. Don’t get confused if
you can’t understand any words and phrases exactly well. Instead try to make out
the sense.
Try hard to understand the central idea or the key note of the passage. In case of
poetry try to grasp the inner thought.
A substance is essentially the restatement of author’s view, idea, feeling etc. Hence
it should be in third person.
Underline the relevant portions (important sentences/ phrases/ words/ ideas) with
your pencil.
Just before writing, Chalk out a rough draft of the substance you are to write on the
left page of the script.
Leave out the examples. If the examples represent certain ideas, take only the
ideas.
Omit the ornamental expressions, figures of speech, unnecessary or superfluous
details, illustrations, repetitions.
Try to transform those into simple and straightforward ones.
Avoid the explanatory sentences or parts of those.
Transform the circumlocutions into simple expressions.
2/7
3. Leave out the direct speeches. Should those be at all necessary, transform those
into indirect ones.
All the major ideas or points of the original passage must be included.
The substance should be simple as well as abstract.
Be coherent, and maintain the logical chain of the ideas.
Be careful to the grammatical errors while you are writing sentences.
Try to write your answer in your own language as far as possible.
Don’t poke into your personal view or criticism.
On the right page of the script write down final answer clearly.
Yes, Done!

Sample 1- Poetry Passage: 5/7
6. Sample 1- Poetry Passage:
Fire and Ice
By Robert Frost
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Draft:
The world will end in fire - or in ice - I’ve tasted of desire - I hold
with those who favor fire - I know enough of hate - for
destruction ice is also great and would suffice.
Substance:
The speaker weighs up two different scenarios for the apocalypse of the world –
fire or ice. Both the components are compared with self-destructing human emotions:
hatred and desire. The speaker goes for fire. He determines that either opinion would
achieve its purpose sufficiently well.
Sample 2- Prose Passage:
Success in life depends largely on good health. Keep your body fit, and by cleanliness,
fresh air, regular habits and suitable recreations, make yourself strong to play the game,
and to do it in every sense of the word. Avoid anything that will sap your strength.
Smoking in your youth stunts the body and clouds the brain. Be temperate in all things,
and beware of drinking. It is the deadly enemy of health and efficiency.
Above all, remember that your character is a priceless possession. Therefore, keep it
untarnished. Be truthful in all things, courteous and considerate to everybody, fair to
your rivals, kind and helpful to all who are weak and suffering, and do not be afraid to
have the courage to stand up for what is good, pure and noble. Avoid gambling in every
form; it is mean game, trying to get something for nothing, and at other people’s
expense.
6/7
7. Make provision for hard times. In your leisure hours avoid mere idling. Fill each hours
with interesting hobbies, good books, and with companionships and associations
calculated to exercise an influence for good. To a long extent you will be known by the
company you keep.
Draft:
Success in life depends largely on good health. Keep your body fit by cleanliness, fresh
air, regular habits and suitable recreations. – Smoking clouds the brain - beware of
drinking - character is a priceless possession - Be truthful, courteous, and considerate to
everybody. - avoid mere idling - Fill each hours with interesting hobbies, good books,
companionships.
Substance:
Good health is the key to success. One should keep it by harboring superior habits and
befitting recreations and by avoiding smoking and drinking. Character can be kept
stainless by remaining upright, kind and helpful to everybody. One should not be idle. He
rather makes the best of his leisure by reading good books, exercising his hobbies and
keeping good companies.
Note: Moreover “Practice makes perfect”, that’s all I can suggest to you, buddies.
Don’t forget to drop your priceless comments! Thank you n Good bye.
