Here’s to you, Sara, I am just going to write until I can come up with something for my blog. I thought I might get more of my paper done, but things are not going the way that I need them to. Two papers to write, a final exam that I need to spend a week studying for if I’m going to do well on and a thousand other things which keep popping up. Then, of course, there is always work. Well, instead of crying over milk that might get spilled, I think that I will try to take it one thing at a time.
Senior Seminar– This paper compares two poets, one from the Romanticism Era and the other from the Modernism period in America! I have my sources, now I just need to write. Haven’t got an introduction yet, but I can do that afterward when I see what I have done. This way, I can write an introduction which actually explains what my paper is all about. Next step, make sure that I digress from my subject. Hey everyone, sounds like your topics are really cool, but mine seems to be really lame. I will still do it because I am interested in William Wordsworth and I love William Carlos Williams! Their poetry is outstanding.
They are nature lovers and seem to be concerned about the common things in our world. In Wordsworth’s “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud”, he uses personification, similes, and imagery to compare nature and human involvement in natural beauty. In comparing these, he points to another theme, the impact of nature upon the human. William Carlos Williams uses personification, imagery, ambiguity, (in the case of the plums in his poem, “This is Just To Say”). When these poets write, there is a common thread and I would like to explore this more.
