...access to the emotions contained in memory. And he argues that the first principle of poetry should be pleasure, that the chief duty of poetry is to provide pleasure through a rhythmic and beautiful expression of feeling—for all human sympathy, he claims, is based on a subtle pleasure principle that is “the naked and native dignity of man.” Recovering “the naked and native dignity of man” makes up a significant part of Wordsworth’s poetic project, and he follows his own advice from the 1802 preface. Wordsworth’s style remains plain-spoken and easy to understand even today, though the rhythms and idioms of common English have changed from those of the early nineteenth century. Many of Wordsworth’s poems (including masterpieces such as “Tintern Abbey” and the “Intimations of Immortality” ode) deal with the subjects of childhood and the memory of childhood in the mind of the adult in particular, childhood’s lost connection with nature, which can be preserved only in memory. Wordsworth’s images and metaphors mix natural scenery, religious symbolism (as in the sonnet “It is a beauteous evening, calm and...

...Tintern Abbey as a nature poem Throughout Wordsworth’s poem “Tintern Abbey,” he uses the image of the eyes, more specifically what the eye is able to perceive. He begins the poem by describing what it is his eyes are seeing as he paints for the reader a picture of where he is situated in nature. Details of shape, color and movement are revealed, yet it is not with the eyes that the scene is made visible to readers, it is with the mind that the trees, rocks and hedge-rows emerge. This plays into Wordsworth’s idea that eyes limit what we see. It is with our minds that we must look at the world around us. This idea is revisited by the discussion of memories. He writes, “These beauteous forms, through a long absence, have not been to me as is a landscape to a blind man’s eye” (22-24). A blind man only sees with his head, but Wordsworth’s eyes aid him as he remembers what he once saw. Unlike a blind man he has his past to draw from, but because he is relying on his mind, the landscape will not be exactly as he remembers. The mind’s view also has limitations. Memories are once again internal; we draw on what our eyes have shown us, but we must use our brains to fill in the gaps. Wordsworth uses his memories of nature to calm himself and to restore his tranquillity. This calming effect also happens when he is physically look at nature. He writes, “We are laid asleep in body, and become a living soul: While with an eye made quiet by the power of harmony, and the deep power of joy...

The two key highlights from the 1H11 results are the better than expected international LFLs in 2Q and the increased confidence in the US. Management provided more detail than usual at the presentation, which we believe denotes confidence. International LFL: 4.1% in 2Q after 0% in 1Q. We believe LFL is the key driver of CROI and not scale via openings. With better LFLs, the ‘maturing effect’ looks more credible to us. In the four most mature countries, the CROI of the mature assets (>4 years) is 220bp higher than the CROI of all assets. US to break even in 2012E/13E: the improvement in LFLs and other underlying metrics show that the key components of a profitable model are coming together. The worsening of overall losses in 1H from US$132mn to US$143mn is explained by the adverse leverage from new space and the acquisition of two supplier factories (US$10-15mn loss). This is a highly operationally geared business and improving LFLs is therefore key. UK: we agree with management that LFLs (Tesco’s and the industry’s)...

...History of the Building: Founded by King Henry VI and built between 1448 and 1515, King’s College Chapel is considered as one of England’s greatest Medieval buildings.[i] Its reputation comes from the purity of its architecture: despite a long construction history, the chapel’s builders remained true to its initial plane creating a unified interior and robust exterior. King Henry VI was only 19 when he laid the first stone of the 'College roial of Oure Lady and Seynt Nicholas' in Cambridge on Passion Sunday, 1441. At the time this marsh town was still a port so, to make way for his college, Henry exercised a form of compulsory purchase in the centre of medieval Cambridge, levelling houses, shops, and lanes, and even a church between the river and the high street. It took three years to purchase and clear the land.[ii] In 1455 the Wars of the Roses began when Richard Duke of York challenged Henry's kingship. The subsequent story of the building of the Chapel and the Wars of the Roses are closely intermingled. For the first 11 years of the war, the construction continued under Henry's patronage, even though the annual grant of £1000 from the king's family estates, the Duchy of Lancaster, became irregular. Then, in 1461, Henry was taken prisoner and he was killed in 1471. The new king, Edward IV, passed on to the College a little of the money that Henry had intended for his Chapel, but very little building was done in the 22 years between Henry's imprisonment and the death of...

Armitage Robinson, D.D, Fellow of the British Academy Dean of Wells 1921 London: Published for the British Academy By Humphrey Milford, Oxford University Press Amen Corner, E.C. PRINTED IN ENGLAND AT THE OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS BY FREDERICK HALI, 76$ J 9 2/ PREFACE The writer of these pages makes no claim to be a historian, but he is concerned with the materials which go to the construction of true history. Occasionally he is led to revise the verdicts of historians on the ground of a renewed investigation of some isolated problem, or in the light of fuller information which has but lately become available. He hopes that he has done this with sufficient modesty. As a rule he has avoided direct controversy and has preferred a positive presentation of the revised position. He is well aware that when offered thus silently the corrections he desires to make are less likely to attract immediate attention than if he directly challenged fallacies which shelter under honoured names. But he writes from mere love of the subjects to which he has been drawn by the circumstances of his position and by local patriotism ; and he has experienced more than once the temporary blindness pro- duced by the dust of conflict. On the other hand he asks for criticism, ...

...commercial heart of Lon-don. Many banks, offices and firms are concentrated the-re. The Tower and St. Paul's Cathedral are in the centre. The Tower is about 900 years old. Many years ago it was a royal residence, then a prison. Now it is a museum. St. Paul's Cathedral is very large and fine. It was completed in 1710. The famous English architect Christopher Wren planned and built St. Paul's Cathedral. If the City is the business part of London, Westminster is the centre of administration. We can see the Houses of Parliament there. It is a beautiful building with two towers and a very big clock called Big Ben. The Houses of Parliament stand in Parliament Square. Westminster Abbey is opposite the Houses of Parliament. Many great Englishmen were buried in Westminster Abbey. To the west of Westminster Abbey you can see Buckingham Pa-lace. It is a royal residence. The ceremony of the chan-ging of the guards which takes place in front of Bucking-ham Palace is of great interest to the tourists. Rich people live in the West End. The best and most expensive clubs, restaurants and theatres, beautiful houses and parks are there. The East End — the district of plants, factories, slums and docks — is for the working people. London is unlike any other city in the world. It has rather wide streets but low houses. It looks very grey because there is so much rain and fog there. Only buses and pillar-boxes are red. This city has never been planned and it has many parts which are different...

Yeats was one of the front-runners in poems that had to deal with the occult and unnatural. He is considered one of the greatest English writers. William Yeats was a 20th century Irish poet who loved the magical things of life. At the time of William Butler Yeats, the First World War broke out. At first, the war was caused by the creation of Germany that changed the balance of power in Europe. The people that were the cause of the first attacks of the war were the Continental Powers. The fighting in the war came mostly from trenches that were dug on the boarders. Throughout the war technology kept advancing and World War I was the first war that used airplanes in combat. Along with the new use of airplanes in the war, the first tanks were being invented and built by the people in France and Great Britain. The use of sending spies into enemies’...

...will define gender politics for this essay. Jane Austen and Mary Shelley, writing at the beginning of the nineteenth-century, joined their female contemporaries in a growing generation of authoresses who forged careers in discipline of male authority. In this respect, they are inescapably engaging with gender politics. Margaret Kirkham comments that ‘this burgeoning of the female talent...was bound to have a profound effect upon any young woman beginning to write once it had occurred’, suggesting that, regardless of whether the female intended to represent female concerns within their work; a female, in becoming ‘an author, was, in itself, a feminist act’ (Kirkham 33). With the status of the authoress in mind whilst analysing Northanger Abbey and Frankenstein, this essay will focus how Austen and Shelley engage with gender politics through characterization and narrative form, and the female concerns they address, both implicitly and explicitly, throughout their texts. Austen predominately engages with gender politics through her protagonist Catherine. Catherine is presented as the unlikely heroine; ‘no one...would have supposed her born to be a heroine’ (Austen 3). Austen subverts the expectation of an heroine as Catherine possesses ‘feelings rather natural than heroic’, provoking a reading of Catherine as a satire of the passive, unnatural, gothic heroine. When Catherine embarks...

...for and connection with all other elements in an environment. The opening and closing chapters of Edward Abbey’s autobiographical narrative, Desert Solitaire, parallel the Pueblo Emergence as they recount the experiences of a man who spends a summer in Arches National Park in Moab, Utah, and finds companionship in a non-human setting. Abbey’s odyssey from a separate world dominated by human civilization, through the metaphorical door of the Earth-worn arches, and into an ancient wilderness controlled by the collaboration of each composing element marks a “re-emergence” into an original state of existence. As Abbey migrates alone between the cold, dark material world that characterizes the human reality and the warm, colorful and illuminated wilderness that represents the original state of being, he finds companionship and solace in his re-discoveries; at the same time, Abbey is troubled by the same greed and vanity that caused humanity to stray far from the natural union in the first place, and his desire for a kindred “clan” obfuscates the true place were his loyalties lie. Abbey’s emergent journey begins in the dark...

The elements through the story is about Maurya who has lost hope and fears the worst for her son (Clugston, 2010). Foreshadowing is an element in the story. Another element in this story is the foil and dramatic irony. The elements combine to make an impression in this story and they set a tone that is dispair and all hope is lost without any relief. The protagonist Maurya in the story has lost five sons and her husband to the sea (Smith, 1987). She sets the mood for this play as she tries to convince Bartley her youngest not to go out to sea. The protagonist fears she has already lost Michael her other son she has no proof of to the sea (Smith, 1987). The sea along with Bartley to Maurya.

...An Irish Airman Foresees His Death - W B Yeats Context The airman of the poem is Robert Gregory who was from Kiltartan, County Galway. He was born into the privileged Anglo-Irish aristocracy and lived on the CoolePark estate In 1916 he left his aristocratic lifestyle behind and joined the Royal Flying Corps and became a fighter pilot in the First World War In February 1918 his fighter plane was shot down over Italy and he was killed.

Yeats eulogizes and praises a man who he greatly admired. In doing so he creates a portrait of the Character of the airman, portraying him as heroic figure on account of – The uniqueness of his reasons for enlisting – The calm , rational detachment with which he confronts his death and contemplates his life Structure Structure and theme are closely interlinked in this poem. It is written almost entirely in iambic tetrameter, the steady rhythm and consistent rhyme scheme (ababcdcdefef) reflect his calmness and composure in the face of his imminent death as well as his detachment from both life and death.

...Anthology 1 The opening song for the first anthology sets a good mood for continuing with the video. “My Life” is a very moving song that portrays the love the Beatles’ members had for each other and how they always stuck together. The line, “But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one compares with you” stuck out to me most and just shows how much all of them cared for each other and cherished the times they had together. In the beginning they described each of their childhoods and what their young life was like. It was difficult to decipher which voice belonged to which band member, but I was able to figure it out. Each of them had a very different life growing up. John was raised by his aunt after his parents split up when he was young. His mother visited him often and taught him to play the banjo and then the guitar. Paul was born in Liverpool and his mother was a nurse and midwife. He traded in his harmonica for a guitar so he would be able to sing and play at the same time. George lived down the road from Paul in Liverpool and his father was a bus driver. When he was 13 or 14, George was fascinated with guitars and would always draw different designs of guitars. Ringo lived in Liverpool with his father who was a cake baker. He became ill at a young age with appendicitis causing him to fall behind in school. At 13, Ringo bought his first base drum. It was interesting to me to learn about the different lives each of them had growing up and to know they weren’t all...

...Catherine Morland was born to be a heroine. We all have a stereotyped image of the hero or heroine. Yet in Jane Austen's Northhanger Abbey, Morland was shown to be an extraordinarily ordinary girl. She does not display the characteristics of a great hero or heroine that we have all come to aspect. Through the use of imagery and paradox, we, the reader, are shown an ordinary young girl who grows into an extraordinary women. The passage opens with a description of the family Morland was born into. A respectable clergyman of a father, a simple mother, and ten children, we are given the image of a standard, middle class family with a few extra children to look. One that most of us can relate to, but don't really image as a breeding ground for greatness....
