John Donne, "A Valediction..."
John Donne lived from 1572 to 1631. He was contradictory in that he wrote both clever love poems when young and serious meditations and sermons when older. He was raised Catholic but later abandoned Catholicism for the Church of England, though it is debated if this was a true conversion or to advance socially. He also secretly married his employer's niece in 1601, leaving questions if this was out of love or to promote his career. Donne was an intellectual concerned with philosophy, law, science and other subjects. He was known for using poetic devices like conceits and paradoxes in his writing.
Remembrance By Emily Bronte
Remembrance By Emily BronteTrinity Blu*** Don't Thank Me for Viewing Shows....but Rather, Pay It Forward :))***
Emily Brontë was a 19th century English poet who published her works under a male pseudonym to avoid prejudice against female writers. She is considered one of the most important lyric poets of her time and her poetry is emotionally charged and filled with Gothic romance. Her most famous work is the novel Wuthering Heights. Though she died at a young age, her poetry demonstrates her talent and may have been even more popular than her novel had she lived longer.The canonization
The poem "The Canonization" by John Donne explores the themes of true love and its ability to transform lovers into saints. The speaker argues that his love is pure and harmless, asking others not to disturb it. He describes how love has combined him with his beloved into one being. The speaker suggests that through their love and suffering, they have effectively "died" to their former selves and been reborn as a new entity. He proposes that if their love cannot be commemorated through tombs and legends, it will live on through sonnets and poetry. In the last stanza, the speaker envisions future lovers invoking them as a "pattern of love" that contracted the whole world.
Metaphysical poets
The document discusses the Metaphysical Poets, a group of 17th century English poets such as John Donne and George Herbert. It notes that their poems used unconventional conceits and witty comparisons between unrelated subjects. Two of Donne's poems are summarized - "The Flea" uses the image of a flea to argue for sexual intimacy between lovers, while "Holy Sonnets X" argues that death should not be feared as it is not the end. The document also provides biographical details on Donne and Herbert, such as Donne's religious conversion and Herbert's occasional use of shaped poems.
John donne and the metaphysical
John Donne was a 17th century English poet known for breaking away from traditional poetic forms and conventions. As a leader of the Metaphysical poets, Donne incorporated ingenious conceits and intellectual wit into his poetry. While his unconventional style was initially met with ambivalence, Donne influenced later poets and is now regarded as pre-eminent among the Metaphysical poets for bringing a more personal tone to poetry.
I think continually of those who were truly great by stephen spender
The poem discusses those who were truly great. The first stanza describes how these great individuals seemed to remember the soul's history and were inspired by eternal places "where the hours are suns." Their words were touched by fire and told of the spirit. The second stanza says we should never forget the essential pleasures of life or allow them to be smothered by noise and fog. The third stanza discusses how the names of these great individuals who fought for life are celebrated and their honor is left signed in the vivid air.
Bringing poetry into classroom xp
This document outlines a plan to bring poetry into the classroom to motivate students and teach English from a new perspective. The objectives are to show students a non-linguistic use of English through exploring poems about nature during different seasons. Students will analyze poems about autumn, winter, and spring through brainstorming feelings, senses, and memories evoked by the poetry. This is intended to create a relaxed atmosphere and engage students in self-expression. The results were a differentiated teaching routine that motivated students to learn about another aspect of English culture through analyzing and writing their own poems.

IOP - John Donne`s style

It discusses Donne's use of conceits, exaggerated language, and logical arguments. The presentation analyzes Donne's poem "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" as an example, exploring how it depicts the speaker's grief over the death of his wife through complex metaphors and references history and exploration. It ultimately argues that Donne skillfully portrayed both physical and spiritual dimensions of love through his innovative metaphysical poetic style.
A Valediction Forbidding Mourning : John Donne
The poem is an argument by a lover to his beloved not to grieve at their parting. The lover compares parting to death, saying virtuous men die peacefully, so they too can part without tears. The lover argues their souls are one, so parting is an expansion, not a break. Even if their souls are two, they are like the feet of a compass - when one moves, the other leans and heeds the movement, and when it returns, the two are united. Thus the lover persuades his beloved that her firmness will enable his safe return after his journey.
