What to Do:
Write two lyric poems, one conforming to a specific prompt and one in a form and topic of your choice. Both poems should use extended metaphor (one metaphor that runs throughout the entire poem and shapes its theme). Examples of poems using extended metaphors include “Poetry Should Ride the Bus” and “How Poetry Comes to Me.”
How to Do It:
POEM ONE
should respond to the following three-part prompt:
Describe a natural object that interests you (a pinecone; a rabbit; a black hole). Do not make any comparisons yet; just describe it in as much detail as possible. This may be in prose or verse.
Take the natural object you chose and use it to describe one of your parents or siblings. In other words, indulge yourself in comparisons. Again, this may be in prose or verse.
Write a poem which, though it is a description of the natural object above, is
really
about your parent or sibling. (This must be in verse, though the form is up to you. For example, you may choose to write using rhythm and rhyme, or you may choose to write in free verse. You may choose short, compact, haiku-like lines as William Carlos Williams does, or you may write big, sprawling lines!)
Please turn in all parts, even though the finished poem from number 3 is the goal.
POEM TWO
is open form and topic. However, that doesn’t mean this poem should be form
less
; you should develop a form that is appropriate for your topic and your extended metaphor. Well-written poems (at least ones for an audience other than yourself) are made not by putting all of your feelings (or thoughts) onto a page in unformed fashion; instead they should be thoughtfully crafted. Every choice should be deliberate. Use the best
word
. Use the best
line break
. Consider everything! :)
Other considerations:
AVOID CLICHÉ in language, topic, mood, & metaphor
.
Clichés empty language of meaning because they are exceedingly overused. Some are groan-inducing because we’ve heard them so often, they sound a bit like advertising slogans (“plenty of fish in the sea”). Poetry is about using language in a fresh and unexpected way, so cliché is deadly. There are cliché topics (unrequited love), moods (excessive pathos, AKA melodrama), and metaphors (see below).
Examples of cliché metaphors include: love is blind; life is a highway; it’s the journey not the destination; skin white as snow; she’s a delicate flower. (See Shakespeare’s poem
“My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun” (Links to an external site.)
for a fun parody of the poetic clichés of his day.) Think of
original
turns of phrase and
original
metaphors, or turn a cliché on its head by radically revising it. Surprise your reader; surprise yourself. (Robert Frost said “no surprise for the poet, no surprise for the reader.”)
CONSIDER SOUND & SENSE
.
Poetry is a musical genre, as much about the
sound
of words as their
meaning
. Alexander Pope put it this way: “the sound should be an echo to the sense.” In other words, thi.

World Literature Poetry Explication Assignment
Due: 12/02/16 (end-of-day)
The Assignment:
Write a four-page explication of two short poems from our assigned texts in Week 5 (research optional). Choose two poems that you think will work well together, but offer contrast on some levels (either in form or in content). Poems covered deeply in class discussion are not eligible for this assignment. Pick poems we did not cover in depth.
About Explication:
Explication is the unraveling of a poem (or story or play), analyzing the poem word-by-word, line-by-line, or stanza-by-stanza. In unfolding the poem, address any literary devices you see: simile and metaphor, allusion, rhyme, rhythm, repetition, onomatopoeia, form, and other techniques (see Poetry.org). How do these all contribute to the overall message of the poem?
An explication is a way for you to slow down and focus on the detail. Often, a poem that you find confusing will make sense once you take some time to examine it piece by piece.
Cite all sources according to MLA and include a Works Cited page.
Introduction: Include title (in quotation marks), author, dates, brief background of the author if necessary and relevant, a brief summary of the plot (situation), or literal level of the poem, and your thesis, which is an interpretation (argument) of the meaning you see.
Body Paragraphs: Systematically go through the poem showing the techniques stated in your thesis and showing how they relate to the poet’s argument. Brief quotes should be incorporated into your sentences to clarify your point. Do not, under any circumstance, quote the entire poem within the paper. If you quote three or fewer lines, an inline quote, you should introduce the quote with a signal phrase, and then quote the section of the poem, indicating line breaks with a “/” and stanza breaks with a “//”.
Author writes, “quoted line/quoted next line” (871).
To quote more than three lines, use a block quote. In either case, follow the quote with a parenthetical reference of the line number(s). And then, make sure that you follow the quote with a close analysis/unpacking of the meaning. If you quote there must be a reason, and it is your job to “unpack” what is inside the quote—don’t expect readers to see your points only based on the quote.
Conclusion: Here you pull the paper together and reaffirm your thesis. You could discuss how the poem relates to real life and/or use this paragraph to disagree with the poet’s argument if you wish. Avoid, “I think…” or “I feel…” language. Be specific with word choice and avoid vague words like unique, interesting, amazing, etc.
Style: Keep your sentences focused on the poem itself. Include transitions where appropriate to avoid jumping quickly from one topic to the next.
Additional Style Tips: While the explication tends to be a chronological progression, consider the organization of the paper. How can you group your observations? This, as any other formal paper, shoul.
Shall I Compare Thee To a Line of Code? (with presenter notes)Lauren Scott
A talk by Lauren Scott

Programming has a lot more in common with the arts than we like to think—and no, I don’t just mean it’s good for making apps like Draw Something. People often speak of programming as an art form, saying that great code can somehow transcend basic functionality and become something that has value in the essence of its form. But, as we all know, writing code is easy—it’s writing the good stuff that’s hard.
So what can we take from study of the arts that would illuminate our own paths as developers? In this talk, I’ll go through some poetic principles that clarify ideas about software development, both in the way we write our code and the way we grow as creators and teammates. We’ll explore the way poets learn to shape their craft and see what we can steal to help our code level up from functioning to poetic.
This is my powerpoint for my EDU 290 class. This would be incorporated in an English Lesson to teach students about poetry that we would be doing in a classroom

How to Quote and Cite Poetry
You will be required to quote and cite lines of poetry for both the Red Bird and Rose analyses. The grade for the poetry analyses will be partly determined by style and partly determined by your analysis of meaning. This PDF handout will focus on the importance of correct style.
Paragraph Basics
In order to promote clarity, each paragraph must have a topic sentence that announces the main idea of the paragraph. For smooth flow, the beginning of the topic sentence should include a transitional phrase.
To promote unity (staying on topic), all paragraphs should present only ONE idea which is supported by facts, examples, statistics or illustrations, etc... Writing unified paragraphs helps both the writer and the reader to concentrate on one point at a time. Let no detail or example creep into your paragraph if it doesn’t support the one idea, or topic sentence.
A new paragraph should result if there is a shift of subject, idea, emphasis, speaker, time, or place. In other words, keep one idea per paragraph.
Introducing Quotes
Readers should be able to move from your own words to the words you quote from a source without feeling a jolt. So introduce all your quotes with signal phrases, usually including the author’s name, to prepare readers for the source:
According to ornithologist Jay Sheppard, “The bald eagle seems to have stabilized its population, at the very least, almost everywhere” (96).
Although the bald eagle is still listed as an endangered species, it “seems to have stabilized its population, at the very least, almost everywhere” (Sheppard 96).
To avoid monotony and excessive repetition, try to vary your signal phrases. Below is a list of appropriate phrases you can use to introduce a quote: acknowledges, adds, admits, agrees, argues, asserts, believes, claims, comments, compares, confirms, contends, declares, denies, disputes, emphasizes, endorses, grants, illustrates, implies, insists, notes, observes, points out, reasons, refutes, rejects, reports, responds, states, suggests, thinks, writes.

Introducing Lines of Verse *
Here are a few examples on h
ow to introduce lines of verse. (Source: WikiHow. Please visit the
webpage (link below) to read more about quoting and citing poetry):
Example: Robert Frost uses a variety of words and phrases such as “frozen” (7), “darkest
evening” (8), and “before I sleep” (15) to imply thoughts of solitude and the
desire to not return to his obligations.
Example: The notion of solitude appears in many notable poems including the famous
lines, "The woods are lovely, dark, and deep / But I have promises to keep / And
miles to go before I sleep" (Frost 13-15).
Example: Robert Frost writes about solitude and man’s relationship with nature:
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping ...
This is a slide report discussion about Prose and Poetry. What is their differences in terms of their usage and how they can be use.
Black out Poetry is also included in this report
Literature can be categorized into two main classifications based on the structure of language.
These two categories are known as prose and poetry. Prose is the language in its original and natural form, i.e., the language that is found in newspapers, textbooks, novels.
Poetry is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language to evoke meaning.
The main difference between prose and poetry is that prose is written naturally whereas poetry is written in a metrical structure.
Prose is a major form of literature; both fiction and nonfiction are included in prose. Novels, novellas, short stories, biographies, autobiographies, memoirs, essays, travel books, academic essays, thesauruses, textbooks, etc. are all written in prose.
The language is grammatical in nature and consists of a natural flow of speech, instead of metrical structure. It is composed of full grammatical sentences, and these sentences are then grouped in paragraphs. The language used in nonfiction such as newspaper, textbooks, travel books, etc. are devoid of figures of speech, and other decorations and ideas are expressed in a direct and straightforward manner. The spoken language can also be classified as prose.
Poetry is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language to evoke meaning. Factors such as rhyme, rhythm, metric syllables, etc. are taken into account to create poetry. Poetry is normally used to express something in an artistic and aesthetic way.
However, the language of poetry is not as natural or free as prose.
Poetic language tends to be more decorative and creative than the language used in prose; attention is especially paid to sound and rhythm.
A poem is composed of lines; a line can be very long or as short as one word. A stanza is made up of several stanzas.
Poems can be classified into different types depending on the structure of the stanzas. Free verse, blank verse, cinquain, diamante poems are some examples of these structures.
As mentioned above, poets use a limited number of words to express their ideas in poetry. This is why one line can be as short as one word. Sometimes it is difficult to understand the meaning of the poem by reading it only once or twice. An in-depth reading and analysis may be required to decipher the complete meaning.

Poetry Explication--Assignment/Instructions
Assignment for the Poetry Explication
An
Explication
is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of literature, often proceeding word-by-word or line-by-line through the work. For this paper, you will be writing an explication of a poem. You may choose any of the poems listed in this module.
Technical Requirements for Explication:
The paper must be typed and double-spaced, conforming to proper manuscript
MLA
format. Please review the MLA documentation module for more information on MLA format.
The final draft of the paper must be at least two (2) pages.
This is not a research essay; therefore, you will not (and should not) use outside sources.
In the Explication you will be presenting your "reading" of the poem you have chosen. Such a reading will require you to understand all aspects of the poem and to have a grasp of the meaning of individual parts of the poem in relation to the entire work.
You are not, however, striving to be exhaustive in your "explanation" of the poem, but rather
you should strive to be selective in considering only those details that are significant to your own thematic understanding of the poem
.
General Questions to Consider for Poetry Explication
These questions will assist you to experience the poem more critically.
You do
NOT
need to address all of the following questions.
What does the title contribute to the reader's understanding of the poem?
Who is the speaker? Where is the speaker when the poem is happening?
What is the situation? What has happened in the past, or what is happening in the present, that has brought about the speech/poem?
Is there a specific setting of time and place?
Is the speaker addressing anyone in particular?
How do you respond to the speaker? Favorably? Negatively? Are there any special circumstances that inform what the speaker says?
What is the theme/meaning of the poem? Is the theme of the poem presented directly or indirectly? What details make possible the formulation of the main idea?
Do any allusions enrich the poem's meaning? What references need explaining? How does an explanation assist in the understanding of the poem?
What difficult, special, or unusual words does the poem contain? How does the diction reveal meaning? Are any words repeated? If so, do any words carry evocative connotative meanings? Are there any puns or other forms of verbal wit?
Do any objects, persons, places, events, or actions have allegorical or symbolic meanings? What other details in the poem support your interpretation?
Is irony used? Are there any examples of situational irony, verbal irony, or dramatic irony? Is understatement or paradox used?
What is the tone of the poem? Is the tone consistent?
Does the poem use onomatopoeia, assonance, consonance, or alliteration? How do these sounds affect you?
What sounds are repeated? If there are rhymes, what is their effect? Do they seem forced or na.
You may have gotten away with not annotating any words twice in the .docxdavezstarr61655
You may have gotten away with not annotating any words twice in the short fiction annotations, but you will definitely have to double annotate for the poetry annotation. For instance, a word could be a part of a metaphor, but it also could have heavy connotative meaning as well. Therefore, you would want to highlight and annotate it once for the metaphor and another time for the connotation. Then, you could possibly annotate it again for denotative meaning and/or for being an image or an example of jargon, etc. As I said before, words are chosen very carefully in poetry, and every word is packed with much more meaning than in short fiction, resulting in much more possibility for element use by the author for each word. Even pronouns can have heavy meaning.
We, unfortunately, do not have time to move into a study of sound, but that is a very important part of poetry, and you can still use it if you want to.
Alliteration
is a sound element that you have probably heard of. It is when the beginning of words share similar sounds. For instance, "car," "queen," and "cream." These words also share other sounds, like the "r" sound in "car" and "cream." That is called
consonance
, which is when words share consonant sounds. "Queen" and "cream" both share a vowel sound, which is referred to as
assonance
. Those are three easy ways to assess sound beyond the primary way of connecting words by the way they sound,
rhyming
, which occurs when a word shares two or more of these similar sounds. Sound is a very important part of poetry.
However, some poets choose to use
blank verse
or
free verse
. The difference between those is that the former has no rhyme but keeps the use of
meter
, which is regularity in the use of syllables. For instance, using five sets of two syllables in every line is called
iambic pentameter
. The groups of syllables are called i
ambs
. Poetry used to always have meter and rhyme. It began to lose rhyme and keep meter, which was blank verse, which primarily used iambic pentameter. This is what Shakespeare used in his plays. Then, as poets began to experiment heavily with form, they lost both. Poets like Walt Whitman pioneered this type of poetry, and many people argued at first that this was not true poetry. Nowadays no one would make that argument. We are used to thinking of poetry without rhyme and meter.
There are many different poetic forms that use specific types of rhyme and meter, and many poets start with and move into innovating with those forms. For instance, a
sonnet
is when a poet uses 14 lines, usually iambic pentameter, and has a volta, or a change. Depending on which type of sonnet, the volta and the rhyme scheme changes and sometimes the meter. For instance, the Shakespearean sonnet, called such because of it being used by William Shakespeare, is written in iambic pentameter, which is ten syllables in each line or five groups of iambs (two syllable groups), and has a rhyme pattern of abab–cdcd–efef–gg (.

Introduction
Starting with the title for the analysis can be something very basic or a clever quote, a statement from the piece. Moving onto the introduction to poetry analysis, this should
open with a “hook”
to get the reader's attention. Follow up with the Authors name and title for the piece.
Add some interesting trivia or background info that is not known to the audience, but try to keep it short
. To finish off the introduction to a poetry analysis state your thesis.
Body
The bulk of ideas and comparisons need to be explored here in a clear, focused way.
When writing a poetry analysis, each paragraph should be devoted to one point or feature you are comparing
. You can divide each point by using the corresponding letter from the outline. Try to make it a coherent and specific about what is being compared (example: when stating your ideas about what the poetic devices do to the piece check whether you state each one and do not generalize). Using transition words and phrases will keep the paragraphs flowing .
The Creative Assignment is in two parts(1)A pastiche, or a styl.docxssuser454af01
The Creative Assignment is in two parts:
(1)A "pastiche," or a stylistic imitation of another text. You will choose a work by one of the poets we are reading, and then identify one or more elements of the work to transform in some way; write your own poem, modelled after the original text. Your imitation, or pastiche, need not be longer than a page or two. Also, notice that in a sense you will "copy" the original, but since you are changing content and overall form, it is not at all "plagiarism." You will have broad creative latitude in the design and direction of your pastiche.
(2) I will not directly grade the Pastiche (imitation) itself (though it must be "sincerely attempted"). Instead, I will grade the accompanying Defense: a description of the process you followed, and of the outcome. Use these bullet points in developing your Defense (perhaps one paragraph per bullet point):
·
A detailed explanation of your choice for the primary text you have imitated
·
A definition of the particular elements you tried to imitate
·
A description of the creative process you followed
·
An account of the challenges you encountered, and how you dealt with them
·
Your own opinion of the resulting imitation
·
A summary of the resulting insights regarding the primary work, and creative effort in
general
·
Put a page break after your Pastiche, then start the Defense on a new page. Put both in the same file. The Defense should be around 600 words, minimum.
Take a look at the sample Pastiche & Defense assignments I have provided. They are on the Lectures and Announcements forum.
Essentially, this is an exercise in analysis but from a different angle. You need to identify specific formal and thematic characteristics of a text. But then, you will attempt to transfer a fewof them to a text of your own creation.
Take a look at how Raleigh responds to Marlowe --see "A Passionate Shepherd to His Love"and "The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd.
Then, look at a poem like "Those Winter Sundays" by Robert Hayden. Among many other characteristics, it presents a male speaker who tells of a father, somewhat strict and disciplined, with whom the speaker, now probably an adult and the father perhaps dead, had a troubled, uncommunicative relationship. You can create a poem that will also remember back to a recurring, that is, a habitual, experience with your father or mother, or a grandparent, or some other authority figure (you can vary the basic elements); you will perhaps try as well to capture the split consciousness: the earlier lack of appreciation, the present tone of regret; and you might also carry over some of the other, more formal devices: the use of sounds to capture some psychological aspect of the person or situation (notice the "k" sounds in the Hayden poem), or the concluding question ("What did I know, what did I know?") that also includes some key word of double significance ("office," that is partly religious and partly about the disciplined,dutifu l matters .
Writing Assignments Poetry1) Write a poem of at least 10 .docxambersalomon88660
Writing Assignments: Poetry
1) Write a poem of at least 10 lines using at least five items from your
“character list.”
2) Write a poem in a voice not your own. You might choose to write in the
voice of some historical figure, in the voice of someone you know, or in
the voice of a made-up character (perhaps someone from your story).
3) Write a poem in a traditional form (sonnet, villanelle, sestina), or with a
set syllabic count, or make up a form of your own.
4) Write a poem with a controlling metaphor (the likeness or connection
between two things—ie., life and baseball—should be carried through-
out the poem) or with at least three metaphors from the same context.
5) Write a poem in imitation of another published poem. If you choose a
poem that’s not in our textbook, please make copies for the rest of the
class and hand the copies in along with your imitation poem. When
preparing the “imitation poem,” try to decide what is essential to the
“original poem.” Is it rhyme scheme, meter, imagery, subject, language,
tone? Several of the above, or something else? Write a poem of your
own that includes those essential elements (it should be similar in form
and length to the original, but it doesn’t have to be exactly the same).
Turn in the poem as usual; by your name, put “Imitation of ‘(Title of
Poem)’ by (Author).”
6) Write about a domestic task, such as knitting, doing dishes, installing an
air-conditioner, or watering plants, OR about a ceremony, such as bap-
tism, transferring a car title, or being graduated. At last once in the
poem, contradict received wisdom. Dare to contradict your own beliefs,
if you wish. Ten line minimum. (Kevin Bath, EH 200)
7) Write about a game you played as a child—preferably a folk game, such
as
kick-the-can, capture-the-flag, scissors-paper-stone, hopscotch, or jump
rope, and not a commercial game like Monopoly or Space Invaers. Use
at least two figures of speech, but make sure they’re not clichés. This
poem must be in blank verse or in a fixed form (sonnet, ballad stanzas,
heroic couplets, terza rima, etc.) (Kevin Bath, EH 200)
Creating a 14-er
Compose a poem in which the lines end with the words below in the order
given. Find possible connections between the words, so that your poem gives a
sensible or logical account of something specific. We haven’t discussed rhythm
(syllable count) or accents (meter) yet, so use any rhythm you want to; but if
you make your lines 10 syllables each, you will have written a Shakespearean
sonnet.
Give your poem a title:
_____________________________________________quiet
_____________________________________________kiss
_____________________________________________riot
_____________________________________________abyss
_____________________________________________trees
_____________________________________________June
_____________________________________________peas
_____________________________________________prune

Assignment For Paper #2, you will pick two poems on a similar th.docxnormanibarber20063
Assignment:
For Paper #2, you will pick two poems on a similar theme to
compare and contrast
. Your paper will explain how the poems use some of the poetic devices we’ve been discussing to express distinct attitudes towards their common subject. It will point out the
similarities and differences
in the ways the two poems do
this
. Therefore, you will need to compare and contrast the general tones of the poems as well as how they use poetic devices to create those tones. Poetic devices you might want to consider include diction, imagery, figurative language, sound (including rhyme, alliteration, assonance, rhythm, and meter), and form.
Your
audience
for this paper is other students in the class who have read these poems. You can assume that your reader has the poems in front of him or her, so you don’t need to quote the whole poem, though a brief paraphrase might be useful. You will need to quote specific lines, phrases, or words in order to point out specific features of the poems. Your
purpose
is to help your reader see the
differences and similarities
in the two poems and, consequently, to better understand how each one works to create its particular effects or meanings.
Your paper should be
800 – 1000 words long, typed and double-spaced, with 1” margins all around
.
Use of secondary sources (other than our own textbook) is not allowed
for this assignment. If you have questions about the poem, ask other students or the instructor.
Here are some
suggested topics
:
1. Compare and contrast the ways Whitman’s “To a Locomotive in
Winter
” (p. 504) and Dickinson’s “I like to see it lap the Miles” (p. 504-05) represent their common subject: a locomotive. What claims does each poem make about the locomotive? What tone or attitude is taken towards the locomotive? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
2. Compare and contrast the ways Lovelace’s “To
Lucasta
” (p. 521) and Owens’ “
Dulce
et
Decorum
Est
” (p. 521-22) represent their common subject: war. What claims does each poem make about war? What tone or attitude is taken towards war? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
3. Compare and contrast the ways
any two
love poems in our reading represent their common subject. What claims does each poem make about love? What tone or attitude is taken towards love? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone? (Please check the two poems you pick with the instructor before proceeding.)
4. Compare and contrast the ways
any two
of the following poems represent God:
·
Donne’s “Batter my Heart, Three-
Personed
God” (p. 531),
·
Hopkins’ “God’s Grandeur” (p. 624),
·
Herbert’s “Easter Wings” (p. 676),
·
Blake’s “The
Tyger
” (p. 824-25).
What claims does each poem make about God? What tone or attitude is taken towards God? How does each poem use specific poetic devices to create its tone?
5. Compare and contrast the ways.

Discussion - Week 3
Elements of the Craft of Writing
The narrator's point of view is the reader's window into the soul of your story. Combined with the tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue, these elements of the craft of writing give your story believability and interest. How can you combine the elements of the craft with the elements of the short story and the techniques of development you learned about in Weeks 1 and 2? In this Discussion, you will understand point of view, tone of voice, characterization, and dialogue and examine how other writers use these elements of craft to improve their work.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the assigned portions of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 7 in Shaping the Story.
Review "Revelation" by Flannery O’Connor, "Mericans” by Sandra Cisneros, and "Why I Like Country Music" by James Alan McPherson in Shaping the Story.
Reflect on the voice in the assigned stories.
How would you describe the voice in each short story?
How do these voices demonstrate what the authors are saying about the main issues of each story?
Reflect on the similarities and differences in the ways that the authors use dialogue to establish character presence.
Consider the issues that each story discusses. How do these issues shape the characters and affect the light in which they are seen at the beginning and the end of the story?
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3
: 2 to 3 paragraphs comparing and contrasting different approaches to two of the following elements in two of the three stories in the Week 3 reading.. Be sure to cite at least two specific examples from your readings.
Point of View
Tone of Voice

Tips for the week 3 discussion (read before you post)
COLLAPSE
Great job so far, class! I've really enjoyed your first two weeks of discussion posts.
Now we will shift our focus to even more tools we can use in our own stories, but first, we will see how they play out in the work of others.
Make sure you do all the readings for the week before posting anything, and also, go through and ask yourselves all the questions (above) from the
"to prepare for the discussion"
section of the instructions. I.
Discussion - Microbial ClassificationGive names of bacteria in.docxmecklenburgstrelitzh
Discussion - Microbial Classification
Give names of bacteria in the genus enterobacteriaceae. How would differentiate enterobacteriaceae from other gram (-) bacteria?
Read the selected scriptures and in your response to the prompt discuss how at least one of the scriptures relates to the discussion topic.
Matthew 8:2-3
"A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, 'Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.' Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. 'I am willing,' he said. 'Be clean!' Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy."
Mark 16:17-18
"'And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.'”
Respiratory System Disease
Pneumonia is diagnosed by the presence of fluid (dark shadows in an X ray) in the alveoli. Since pneumonia usually is caused by a microorganism, what causes the fluid accumulation? Name a bacterium, a virus, a fungus, a protozoan, and a helminth that can cause pneumonia.
Students will individually examine why pneumonia –an infection of the respiratory tract is among the most damaging. Students are also required to use the information they have learnt from the text, lectures, discussions and/or assignments to describe why the respiratory tract is an important portal of entry to inhaled microorganisms such as viruses, fungal spores and bacteria.
Learners will synthesize their findings in a summary presentation of
at least 10 slides
that will be shared with their peers by the specified due date, when they will then
compare and contrast
the feedback from their research in this discussion forum. Learners will be evaluated against the criteria outlined in the assignment and discussion forum rubric.

Poetry Explication--Assignment/Instructions
Assignment for the Poetry Explication
An
Explication
is a complete and detailed analysis of a work of literature, often proceeding word-by-word or line-by-line through the work. For this paper, you will be writing an explication of a poem. You may choose any of the poems listed in this module.
Technical Requirements for Explication:
The paper must be typed and double-spaced, conforming to proper manuscript
MLA
format. Please review the MLA documentation module for more information on MLA format.
The final draft of the paper must be at least two (2) pages.
This is not a research essay; therefore, you will not (and should not) use outside sources.
In the Explication you will be presenting your "reading" of the poem you have chosen. Such a reading will require you to understand all aspects of the poem and to have a grasp of the meaning of individual parts of the poem in relation to the entire work.
You are not, however, striving to be exhaustive in your "explanation" of the poem, but rather
you should strive to be selective in considering only those details that are significant to your own thematic understanding of the poem
.
General Questions to Consider for Poetry Explication
These questions will assist you to experience the poem more critically.
You do
NOT
need to address all of the following questions.
What does the title contribute to the reader's understanding of the poem?
Who is the speaker? Where is the speaker when the poem is happening?
What is the situation? What has happened in the past, or what is happening in the present, that has brought about the speech/poem?
Is there a specific setting of time and place?
Is the speaker addressing anyone in particular?
How do you respond to the speaker? Favorably? Negatively? Are there any special circumstances that inform what the speaker says?
What is the theme/meaning of the poem? Is the theme of the poem presented directly or indirectly? What details make possible the formulation of the main idea?
Do any allusions enrich the poem's meaning? What references need explaining? How does an explanation assist in the understanding of the poem?
What difficult, special, or unusual words does the poem contain? How does the diction reveal meaning? Are any words repeated? If so, do any words carry evocative connotative meanings? Are there any puns or other forms of verbal wit?
Do any objects, persons, places, events, or actions have allegorical or symbolic meanings? What other details in the poem support your interpretation?
Is irony used? Are there any examples of situational irony, verbal irony, or dramatic irony? Is understatement or paradox used?
What is the tone of the poem? Is the tone consistent?
Does the poem use onomatopoeia, assonance, consonance, or alliteration? How do these sounds affect you?
What sounds are repeated? If there are rhymes, what is their effect? Do they seem forced or na.
You may have gotten away with not annotating any words twice in the .docxdavezstarr61655
You may have gotten away with not annotating any words twice in the short fiction annotations, but you will definitely have to double annotate for the poetry annotation. For instance, a word could be a part of a metaphor, but it also could have heavy connotative meaning as well. Therefore, you would want to highlight and annotate it once for the metaphor and another time for the connotation. Then, you could possibly annotate it again for denotative meaning and/or for being an image or an example of jargon, etc. As I said before, words are chosen very carefully in poetry, and every word is packed with much more meaning than in short fiction, resulting in much more possibility for element use by the author for each word. Even pronouns can have heavy meaning.
We, unfortunately, do not have time to move into a study of sound, but that is a very important part of poetry, and you can still use it if you want to.
Alliteration
is a sound element that you have probably heard of. It is when the beginning of words share similar sounds. For instance, "car," "queen," and "cream." These words also share other sounds, like the "r" sound in "car" and "cream." That is called
consonance
, which is when words share consonant sounds. "Queen" and "cream" both share a vowel sound, which is referred to as
assonance
. Those are three easy ways to assess sound beyond the primary way of connecting words by the way they sound,
rhyming
, which occurs when a word shares two or more of these similar sounds. Sound is a very important part of poetry.
However, some poets choose to use
blank verse
or
free verse
. The difference between those is that the former has no rhyme but keeps the use of
meter
, which is regularity in the use of syllables. For instance, using five sets of two syllables in every line is called
iambic pentameter
. The groups of syllables are called i
ambs
. Poetry used to always have meter and rhyme. It began to lose rhyme and keep meter, which was blank verse, which primarily used iambic pentameter. This is what Shakespeare used in his plays. Then, as poets began to experiment heavily with form, they lost both. Poets like Walt Whitman pioneered this type of poetry, and many people argued at first that this was not true poetry. Nowadays no one would make that argument. We are used to thinking of poetry without rhyme and meter.
There are many different poetic forms that use specific types of rhyme and meter, and many poets start with and move into innovating with those forms. For instance, a
sonnet
is when a poet uses 14 lines, usually iambic pentameter, and has a volta, or a change. Depending on which type of sonnet, the volta and the rhyme scheme changes and sometimes the meter. For instance, the Shakespearean sonnet, called such because of it being used by William Shakespeare, is written in iambic pentameter, which is ten syllables in each line or five groups of iambs (two syllable groups), and has a rhyme pattern of abab–cdcd–efef–gg (.

Introduction
Starting with the title for the analysis can be something very basic or a clever quote, a statement from the piece. Moving onto the introduction to poetry analysis, this should
open with a “hook”
to get the reader's attention. Follow up with the Authors name and title for the piece.
Add some interesting trivia or background info that is not known to the audience, but try to keep it short
. To finish off the introduction to a poetry analysis state your thesis.
Body
The bulk of ideas and comparisons need to be explored here in a clear, focused way.
When writing a poetry analysis, each paragraph should be devoted to one point or feature you are comparing
. You can divide each point by using the corresponding letter from the outline. Try to make it a coherent and specific about what is being compared (example: when stating your ideas about what the poetic devices do to the piece check whether you state each one and do not generalize). Using transition words and phrases will keep the paragraphs flowing .
The Creative Assignment is in two parts(1)A pastiche, or a styl.docxssuser454af01
The Creative Assignment is in two parts:
(1)A "pastiche," or a stylistic imitation of another text. You will choose a work by one of the poets we are reading, and then identify one or more elements of the work to transform in some way; write your own poem, modelled after the original text. Your imitation, or pastiche, need not be longer than a page or two. Also, notice that in a sense you will "copy" the original, but since you are changing content and overall form, it is not at all "plagiarism." You will have broad creative latitude in the design and direction of your pastiche.
(2) I will not directly grade the Pastiche (imitation) itself (though it must be "sincerely attempted"). Instead, I will grade the accompanying Defense: a description of the process you followed, and of the outcome. Use these bullet points in developing your Defense (perhaps one paragraph per bullet point):
·
A detailed explanation of your choice for the primary text you have imitated
·
A definition of the particular elements you tried to imitate
·
A description of the creative process you followed
·
An account of the challenges you encountered, and how you dealt with them
·
Your own opinion of the resulting imitation
·
A summary of the resulting insights regarding the primary work, and creative effort in
general
·
Put a page break after your Pastiche, then start the Defense on a new page. Put both in the same file. The Defense should be around 600 words, minimum.
Take a look at the sample Pastiche & Defense assignments I have provided. They are on the Lectures and Announcements forum.
Essentially, this is an exercise in analysis but from a different angle. You need to identify specific formal and thematic characteristics of a text. But then, you will attempt to transfer a fewof them to a text of your own creation.
Take a look at how Raleigh responds to Marlowe --see "A Passionate Shepherd to His Love"and "The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd.
Then, look at a poem like "Those Winter Sundays" by Robert Hayden. Among many other characteristics, it presents a male speaker who tells of a father, somewhat strict and disciplined, with whom the speaker, now probably an adult and the father perhaps dead, had a troubled, uncommunicative relationship. You can create a poem that will also remember back to a recurring, that is, a habitual, experience with your father or mother, or a grandparent, or some other authority figure (you can vary the basic elements); you will perhaps try as well to capture the split consciousness: the earlier lack of appreciation, the present tone of regret; and you might also carry over some of the other, more formal devices: the use of sounds to capture some psychological aspect of the person or situation (notice the "k" sounds in the Hayden poem), or the concluding question ("What did I know, what did I know?") that also includes some key word of double significance ("office," that is partly religious and partly about the disciplined,dutifu l matters .

Great job so far, class! I've really enjoyed your first two weeks of discussion posts.
Now we will shift our focus to even more tools we can use in our own stories, but first, we will see how they play out in the work of others.
Make sure you do all the readings for the week before posting anything, and also, go through and ask yourselves all the questions (above) from the
"to prepare for the discussion"
section of the instructions. I.
Discussion - Microbial ClassificationGive names of bacteria in.docxmecklenburgstrelitzh
Discussion - Microbial Classification
Give names of bacteria in the genus enterobacteriaceae. How would differentiate enterobacteriaceae from other gram (-) bacteria?
Read the selected scriptures and in your response to the prompt discuss how at least one of the scriptures relates to the discussion topic.
Matthew 8:2-3
"A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, 'Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.' Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. 'I am willing,' he said. 'Be clean!' Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy."
Mark 16:17-18
"'And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.'”
Respiratory System Disease
Pneumonia is diagnosed by the presence of fluid (dark shadows in an X ray) in the alveoli. Since pneumonia usually is caused by a microorganism, what causes the fluid accumulation? Name a bacterium, a virus, a fungus, a protozoan, and a helminth that can cause pneumonia.
Students will individually examine why pneumonia –an infection of the respiratory tract is among the most damaging. Students are also required to use the information they have learnt from the text, lectures, discussions and/or assignments to describe why the respiratory tract is an important portal of entry to inhaled microorganisms such as viruses, fungal spores and bacteria.
Learners will synthesize their findings in a summary presentation of
at least 10 slides
that will be shared with their peers by the specified due date, when they will then
compare and contrast
the feedback from their research in this discussion forum. Learners will be evaluated against the criteria outlined in the assignment and discussion forum rubric.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

What to DoWrite two lyric poems, one conforming to a specif.docx
1. What to Do:
Write two lyric poems, one conforming to a specific prompt and
one in a form and topic of your choice. Both poems should use
extended metaphor (one metaphor that runs throughout the
entire poem and shapes its theme). Examples of poems using
extended metaphors include “Poetry Should Ride the Bus” and
“How Poetry Comes to Me.”
How to Do It:
POEM ONE
should respond to the following three-part prompt:
Describe a natural object that interests you (a pinecone; a
rabbit; a black hole). Do not make any comparisons yet; just
describe it in as much detail as possible. This may be in prose
or verse.
Take the natural object you chose and use it to describe one of
your parents or siblings. In other words, indulge yourself in
comparisons. Again, this may be in prose or verse.
Write a poem which, though it is a description of the natural
object above, is
really
about your parent or sibling. (This must be in verse, though the
form is up to you. For example, you may choose to write using
rhythm and rhyme, or you may choose to write in free verse.
You may choose short, compact, haiku-like lines as William
Carlos Williams does, or you may write big, sprawling lines!)
2. Please turn in all parts, even though the finished poem from
number 3 is the goal.
POEM TWO
is open form and topic. However, that doesn’t mean this poem
should be form
less
; you should develop a form that is appropriate for your topic
and your extended metaphor. Well-written poems (at least ones
for an audience other than yourself) are made not by putting all
of your feelings (or thoughts) onto a page in unformed fashion;
instead they should be thoughtfully crafted. Every choice should
be deliberate. Use the best
word
. Use the best
line break
. Consider everything! :)
Other considerations:
AVOID CLICHÉ in language, topic, mood, & metaphor
.
Clichés empty language of meaning because they are
exceedingly overused. Some are groan-inducing because we’ve
heard them so often, they sound a bit like advertising slogans
(“plenty of fish in the sea”). Poetry is about using language in a
fresh and unexpected way, so cliché is deadly. There are cliché
topics (unrequited love), moods (excessive pathos, AKA
melodrama), and metaphors (see below).
Examples of cliché metaphors include: love is blind; life is a
highway; it’s the journey not the destination; skin white as
snow; she’s a delicate flower. (See Shakespeare’s poem
“My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun” (Links to an
external site.)
3. for a fun parody of the poetic clichés of his day.) Think of
original
turns of phrase and
original
metaphors, or turn a cliché on its head by radically revising it.
Surprise your reader; surprise yourself. (Robert Frost said “no
surprise for the poet, no surprise for the reader.”)
CONSIDER SOUND & SENSE
.
Poetry is a musical genre, as much about the
sound
of words as their
meaning
. Alexander Pope put it this way: “the sound should be an echo
to the sense.” In other words, think carefully about how you can
use sound to support and advance your meaning. (For example,
a funeral elegy would probably not work well in limerick form;
a humorous topic needs a rollicking rhythm, not a slow plod.
Also, a formal word such as “empurpled” would probably not be
the best choice in a contemporary sonnet about Facebook.)
Think about sound when it comes to
diction
(word choice),
rhyme
,
rhythm
,
line breaks
,
stanzas
, and the
length of lines
.
4. Note
: rhyme and rhythm are
not
required in this assignment; you may write in free verse.
However, if you do choose to use rhyme and rhythm, be sure
that you use them deliberately and think about how they support
your meaning.
BE CONCISE AND DELIBERATE IN LANGUAGE
.
In poetry, every word counts. This is true in prose as well, but
it’s
especially
true for poetry, because poems are concise but packed with
meaning and metaphor. Edit out unnecessary words and bulky
phrasing; don’t overuse adjectives or adverbs; think of yourself
as an artist who has only so many words available to decorate
your canvas.
GRADING RUBRIC
Here are my criteria for evaluation:
Do both poems develop an interesting extended metaphor?
Does poem one respond fully and in an original way to the
prompt?
Do both poems consider sound
and
sense? Has the poet developed a form and used language
appropriate to the poem’s topic and mood? Has the poet thought
carefully and deliberately about diction, line breaks, line
lengths, and stanzas? Has the poet thought deliberately about
whether or not to use rhyme or rhythm?
5. Do the poems avoid cliché language, metaphor, and topic? Do
they develop fresh, unexpected metaphors and turns of phrase?
Do the poems carefully consider every word? Are there
unnecessary or overly bulky words, or is the poem concise and
meaningfully elegant?
Is there a clear topic and/or theme?
Has the poet thought carefully about how to begin and end?
Do the poems have provocative and interesting titles?
REQUIREMENTS
:
A complete, typed, and polished draft of both poems is due on
Canvas before the start of class on
Wednesday, October 16
. Late submissions will be penalized by one full letter grade per
day.
You also have the opportunity to workshop your poems with the
class! :) If you sign up for Poetry Workshop, please also upload
