An apology for poetry paragraph 1-30

Anamta Dua

We are going to take a closer look at the history of the term "metaphysical poetry" and some examples of this curious and enigmatic school of early modern poetry in this post. Extensive similes and metaphors, extended poetic conceits and paradoxes, informal speech, and an interest in examining the interaction between the physical and spiritual world (and between the big and the small) are all common characteristics of metaphysical poetry, which we will discuss in this brief introduction.

CLAS 1110, Prof. Yarrow, Writing Assignment #2 The objective of this assignment is to apply what you are learning in class and through the readings to what you experience in contemporary journalism. You’re asked to do this primarily through analysis. Your job is to explain the comparison as clearly as possible. To do this you’ll need specific examples. And you’ll need to analyze those specific examples. The genre of this paper is the persuasive essay. Your answer to the set question should be clear from your thesis statement and the rest of the paper should support that assertion. First, decide if you want to read a few longer articles or more shorter articles. If the former choose option 1, if the later choose option 2. Option 1: How is _____________ mentioned in The New Yorker? How do these references connect to what you’ve read in class? What do the references suggest about how the authors and their intended readership perceive Classical Literature and/or Ancient Greece? Option 2: How is _____________ mentioned in the New York Times? How do these references connect to what you’ve read in class? What do the references suggest about how these authors and their intended readership perceive Classical Literature and/or Ancient Greece? Second, you must pick a proper noun or adjective derived from a proper noun to fill in the blank in your question! Any of the authors we’ve read or will read before the midterm are fine choices: Herodotus, Thucydides, Homer, Sappho, Plato.... Other valid choices are the names of primary characters including, but not limited, to Pericles, Socrates, Helen of Troy, Odysseus, Aphrodite, Croesus, Antigone, etc. You can also pick famous places or peoples: Sparta, Thermopylae, Spartans Or, you may even pick adjectives derived from names: Laconic, Platonic, etc. Don’t get stuck on your first choice. After you run a few searches, you may choose to pick a different one that has more interesting or more substantial material. For Option 1, go to the New Yorker website (http://www.newyorker.com/search) and search for the term. Chose 3 articles for analysis. These articles must have been written in your lifetime. At least one must have been published in the last 12 months. You may not chose book, theatre, or art reviews; all other articles are acceptable, but some may be more suitable to the assignment than others. Be selective. For Option 2, you can go to the NYTimes website (http://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/) and search for the term. Restrict your search to your own lifetime. At least one article must be published in 2016. Choose 5-6 articles for analysis. You may not chose book, theatre, or art reviews; all other articles are acceptable, but some may be more suitable to the assignment than others. Be selective. Both of these media outlets have paywalls! You may need to use resources from library.brooklyn.cuny.edu to access those porti ...

Comparing "S t. john the baptist" by leonardo da vinci and "Salvator mundi" by leonardo da Vance Write an essay of at least 450 words using 12 point font and double-spaced text) comparing the formal treatment and iconography of each work. Be sure to identify each object by indicating the artist, title, and date of production. Your essay should address how similarities and differences contribute to your understanding of each work’s meaning or artistic significance. You should analyze these points: stylistic choices (e.g., abstract, naturalistic, idealistic, realistic), function or symbolism of the pieces (What were they used for? Do they communicate a message? Are they sacred or secular works of art), cultural context (e.g., how might the way of life at the time and place the pieces were created affected their function and style? Do historical events relate to the image or story depicted?). You must cite at least one source that is not our text book. Use Chicago-Turabian style notation for any sources that you need to document as references in footnotes. Double-space your text and list your name and the date in the header on the first page.

ESSAY 1 Due March 6th at 11:59PM 1. The concept of "beauty" is a widely elusive and debated subject. Many philosophers and scholars claimed to have understood and tried to explain what makes something beautiful. But their explanations often differ greatly. Take on this objective yourself. How do you define beauty? Providing at least two examples to support your assertion, offer a commentary on the qualifications, features, and justifications of beauty as you see it. In other words, present a subject that you find to be beautiful, explain why you find this to be the case, and indicate how this judgment implies your larger definition of the term. 2. The intentions of the Humanities are based upon achieving a full “humanness” through virtue. Numerous philosophers and scholars have contributed their opinions on how this might be achieved. Surmise one of the ancient theories of achieving virtue that we have discussed (by Socrates, Plato or Aristotle) that you find to be legitimate, and explain why you see this as an appropriate means of becoming fully human. Also offer at least one example to support your assertion regarding this theory. 3. The Humanities has long concerned itself with questions of critical thought. Rene Descartes was a philosopher who contended that thought itself justified existence. Explain Descartes’ proposition. Indicate how and why he suggests thought to be sufficient as a proof of human existence. Also examine his assertion for legitimacy. Do you find that thought alone can prove our existence, or is some type of perceptual justification required (even from another person)? Explain. Finally examine how this contention might be viewed from a religious perspective; Descartes was devout but used philosophy rather than faith to justify his assertions. Many at the time viewed this as a sacrilege; where do you stand regarding this? 4. The archetype of the “Hero” has become very important and ever-present within the study of mythology among cultures. Comment on how this archetype functions in cultural history, and consider what the myth of the hero offers to the cultures associated with its embrace. Offer at least two examples of the hero myth that you are familiar with from Western culture, and illustrate how these myths follow similar patterns or present similar moral underpinnings. 5. The nature of childhood is a very important element in the content of Romantic poetry. In the work that we have studied by William Blake, The Little Black Boy, the outlook of a child is central to the interpretive meaning of the poem. Examine what the perspective of childhood is intended to facilitate in this poem. Why is this a necessary element of the writing, and what role does it play in influencing the response of the reader? Also illustrate through the writing, what the poem intends to suggest about the outlook of children compared to that of adults. 6. The French poet Charles Baudelaire was convicted of indecency.

The specific topics. Choose and develop one. Discuss the development of the epic narrator from Homer's "sing, goddess," to Virgil's "arms and the man I sing" and beyond. How does the nature of the voice telling the story change through the history of the epic tradition? Does the changing role of the narrator reflect other changes, perhaps in the relationship of the author to the material and the audience? Discuss at least three works, including, at a minimum, the Iliad , the Aeneid , and either The Nibelungenlied , Parzival , or The Divine Comedy. Discuss the interpretabilty of the epic. It has been argued, for example, that the works of Homer are "all surface." Certain epics, on the other hand, seem to demand to be read on multiple levels. How does this change over time? How does the epic develop as an art form capable of conveying multiple and complex meanings? Discuss at least three works, including, at a minimum, one work by Homer, the Aeneid , and at least one medieval work. Discuss the phenomenon of intertextuality in the epic tradition. How do creators of epics embed their works in the epic tradition and/or connect them to earlier works? How does this creation of connections contribute to the meaning or artistic quality of the individual epic? Discuss at least three works, including the Aeneid and at least one medieval work. Discuss the nature of the hero in ancient and medieval epic. What are the characteristics of the hero in Homer, Virgil, and beyond? How is Aeneas different from Achilles, or how is Dante the Pilgrim different from Aeneas? Does the epic hero embody moral or ethical or spiritual values that the poem appears to endorse? Or is the hero just the best fighter and the toughest man? Discuss the heroes of at least three epics, including at least one ancient and at least one medieval epic. Consider the miniature paintings representing two important moments in the Divine Comedy -- the opening image of Dante lost in the woods and the image/s of Dante and Virgil with Paolo and Francesca (Inferno 5.88-142) in three manuscripts -- Yates Thompson 36, Holkham Misc. 48, and BN it. 2017. Details on these manuscripts, and the images you need to work with, are to be found in "The Divine Comedy in the Visual Arts for the Final Paper" in Sakai Resources. You may choose to narrow the topic by discussing only the images of Dante lost in the woods OR Dante and Virgil with Paolo and Francesca. Look carefully at the images and compare them to the text passages that they most closely reflect. Do the images follow the words of the text closely, or could they be said to represent narrative ideas more than specific words and phrases? How much potential do these images have for independent narrative? Could they in any way tell the story to non-reading viewers? Or do they seem to be intended for readers to look at while reading the Comedy ? Do the images offer visual commentaries or explanations of the Comedy? Compare three visual.

A certain prejudice sometimes alleges that allegories are outmoded metaphorical devices but as one literary scholar has note a traveller may be a symbol of a pilgrim or seeker of truth and a mountain may be a symbol of the soul's aspiration but once the traveller has set foot towards a mountain an allegory arises irrespective of the author's intentions as subconscious forces in the mind flow into the process of poetic creation.

The Mini Project Task Instructions: Read about validity and reliability starting on page 324 of the textbook. Your assignment is to create a 5-page paper addressing the following questions: a. What is the difference between reliability and validity? Which is more important? Why? b. What are the different ways of assessing reliability? c. What are the different ways of assessing validity? d. What are the different ways of obtaining validity evidence? The analysis requires the additional components:  APA formatted paper including: o Font: Times New Roman, 12 point, and double spaced. o Margins: One inch margins, all around. o Indents: One-half inch indent as to begin a paragraph. o Proper APA citations and references. o Proper use of Level 1 headings as to label the introduction, main body, and conclusions segments. o Proper use of Level 2 headings as to label the sections within the main body and conclusions . o A proper title page. o A reference page utilizing hanging indents and alphabetized by the last name of the first author.  Free of spelling errors and minimal use of passive voice. Page 324 In general, reliabilities less than 0.60 are considered to be poor, those in the 0.70 range, acceptable, and those over 0.80 good. Thus, the internal consistency reliability of the measures used in this study can be considered to be acceptable for the job enrichment measure and good for the other measures. It is important to note that all the negatively worded items in the questionnaire should first be reversed before the items are submitted for reliability tests. Unless all the items measuring a variable are in the same direction, the reliabilities obtained will be incorrect. A sample of the result obtained for the Cronbach’s alpha test for job enrichment, together with instructions on how it is obtained, is shown in Output 11.3. The reliability of the job enrichment measure is presented in the first table in Output 11.3. The second table provides an overview of the alphas if we take one of the items out of the measure. For instance, it is shown that if the first item (Jobchar1) is taken out, Cronbach’s alpha of the new three-item measure will be 0.577. This means that the alpha will go down if we take item 1 out of our measure. On the other hand, if we take out item 3, our alpha will go up and become 0.851. Note that, in this case, we would not take out item 3 for two reasons. First, our alpha is above 0.7 so we do not have to take any remedial actions. Second, if we took item 3 out, the validity of our measure would probably decrease. We did not include item 3 for nothing in the original measure! If, however, our Cronbach’s alpha was too low (under 0.60) then we could use this table to find out which of the items would have to be removed from our measure to increase the interitem consistency. Note that, usually, taking out an item, although improving the reliability of our measure, affects the validity of our measure .

Mainly discuss about fitness Formal Essay #3: Reporting Information/The Expository Essay Expository writing is a staple of academic writing. Throughout your academic and professional career, you will be called on to write hundreds of expository articles, reports and essays. A thorough knowledge of this writing form will hold you in good stead all through your career. What is Expository Writing? ‘Expository’ is a synonym of ‘explanatory’. An expository essay is a piece of writing that explains or informs. It should be based on fact and free of the writer’s prejudices. Opinion is often expressed, but only if it is backed by fact. For example, if someone asked you to write an essay on the causes of World War II, you would write about Germany’s losses in World War I, the Treaty of Versailles, the fall of the Weimar Republic, and the rise of Hitler led Nazism. In other words, everything would be based on verifiable fact. The expository writing process centers on four activities: Generate a rough idea or hypothesis. Find evidence to back up this idea. Expound on the idea. Present an argument to back up the idea. Thus, if you were to say that the Treaty of Versailles was the chief cause of World War II, you would first talk about the conditions of the Treaty of Versailles, the financial condition of Germany after WWI, the ineffectiveness of the Weimar Republic, and how they all led to the rise of Nazism. Structurally, a piece of expository writing has the following components: An introduction that introduces the central idea you will discuss in the essay. The main body that presents evidence to back up the idea. This is the meat of the essay. A conclusion that presents your idea again in the light of the evidence. Thus, the central thrust of expository writing should be to build towards proving an argument, fact by fact, piece of evidence by piece of evidence. You will use expository writing a lot throughout your academic life. Most essays that you write in college will be expository in nature. Most writing that you will do in your professional life will involve a lot of expository content as well. In other words, sharpening up this skill will serve you well throughout your life. Required Essay Format: All response papers must be typed, double-spaced, and stapled. Font size should be 12 point Times New Roman font. ***AT MINIMUM, YOUR WORKS CITED PAGE WILL CONTAIN 3-4 SOURCES!!!! Essays should demonstrate the following kinds of understanding. Essays should meet assignment requirements of page length and number of sources, quotes, and summaries/paraphrases. The w.

The main characters in Tay Garnett's film The Postman Always Rings Twice and the Coen Brothers' The Man Who Wasn't There follow a pattern of behavior that is inane and ultimately self-destructive, as can be seen in how they end up -- either dead, wrongly accused and imprisoned for a crime they didn't commit, or ironically not convicted for a crime they did commit. What do you think these films are saying about the pattern of behavior they followed to get them where they wound up in the end, as well as why they followed these patterns of behavior in the first place? In other words, what is the way of thinking or belief system that lead to these characters' behaviors, and what does the film tell us about this way of thinking or belief system? And finally, does the film propose an alternative way of thinking or life narrative that might have proven more salutory for these characters in the end? .
