Passion
Kathleen Raine was a 20th century British poet influenced by Platonism and spirituality. She fell in love with naturalist Gavin Maxwell, but he did not return her affection, causing her great anguish. In her poem "Passion", she describes longing for his voice and feeling disconnected from language and humanity. However, the sky speaks to her and reassures her that she is inherently connected to nature and its eternal rhythms. This realization lifts her from despair into a state of spiritual enlightenment where she sees all things as divine.
The lost woman
The poem describes the narrator's experience of losing her mother at a young age. She comes home from school to see an ambulance taking her mother away, and never sees her buried. Over the years, the narrator creates an imagined life for her mother to cope with the loss. However, in the final stanza, the narrator realizes she is the "lost woman," still haunted by her mother's death. The poem explores the lasting effects of loss on a daughter's psyche.

The examples analyzed include settings and symbols from the short stories "The Hand", "Miss Brill", and "Love in L.A.".
Stabat Mater
Sam Hunt's poem "Stabat Mater" describes the changing relationship between the poet's parents over time.

The poem examines themes of love, aging, duty to care for elders, and the inevitable cycle of life and death. It takes its unusual title from a 13th century Latin hymn describing Mary's sorrows at the crucifixion, perhaps alluding to the mother's grief at her partner's decline.
Lucy Gray by wWlliam Wordsworth
William Wordsworth's poem "Lucy Gray" tells the tragic story of a young girl in three sentences: It describes Lucy living alone on the moors and being sent by her father one winter evening to guide her mother home through a snowstorm, but Lucy gets lost in the storm and her parents can only follow her footprints until they suddenly stop at a bridge; Though her body was never found, some claim to have seen Lucy's spirit wandering the moors.

Sylvia Plath's poem "Mirror" is summarized from the perspective of a mirror. The mirror states that it reflects whatever it sees exactly as it is, without prejudice. In contrast to humans, the mirror does not experience emotions like love or dislike. While its truthful reflections may displease those who see themselves, the mirror does not intend to be cruel but merely truthful. A woman bends over the mirror, searching for her real self, but does not like what she sees and instead prefers illusions like candlelight. Though the woman dislikes the mirror's truthful reflections, she needs it each morning to see herself and replace the darkness.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Theme In Shakespeare
- 1. Tragedy A play in which human actions have unavoidable consequences, in which a character’s bad deeds, behavior, mistakes, or crimes are never forgiven or corrected. Remember: Unhappy Ending
- 2. What is a Tragic Hero? A character of high rank and social status (always the protagonist) who faces the consequences of bad decisions, mistakes, or crimes. The fact that the hero is of high social importance amplifies the intensity of the consequences he must endure.
- 3. What is Theme? Explanation Examples Theme is the message that the author wants to convey about the topic. This message is usually about life, society, or human nature. It is usually implied (hinted at) rather than stated (said). Pride can kill you. Something that is too good to be true usually is. Parents just don’t understand. Family is more important than friends. You can’t always get what you want.
- 4. Theme in Shakespeare What does the speaker think of his girlfriend’s looks? Love is the topic of this poem. What message is Shakespeare trying to send (universal theme) about love? Guess before you move on. Sonnet 130 My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red than her lips' red;If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go;My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rareAs any she belied with false compare.
- 5. Theme in Shakespeare Love is the topic of this poem. What message is Shakespeare trying to send (universal theme) about love? “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Or “When you truly love someone, appearance does not matter.” Or “Real beauty and real love are the same thing.” Sonnet 130 My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red than her lips' red;If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go;My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rareAs any she belied with false compare.
