Wordsworth & Hardy/Perspectives on Nature
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that observes that both William Wordsworth, in 1838, and Thomas Hardy, in 1900, wrote poems that were inspired by the beautiful song of the thrush. But while these two poems share a common topic, the Romantic approach and exuberant optimism of Wordsworth is quite different from the dark skepticism that characterized the Victorian worldview exemplified by Hardy. Nevertheless, examination of the two poems shows that each poet took inspiration and encouragement from the thrush, each in his own way. No additional sources cited.

Wordsworth/Ode, Intimations of Immortality
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that analyzes "Ode, Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood" by William Wordsworth, who uses a perspective that brings in the triad of the past, present and future as a means of understanding the fundamental reality of human existence. It is a fact of life that the joy of living diminishes as human beings leave the shelter of childhood and realize the trials and tribulations that come with the adult world. In this "ode," Wordsworth examines this phenomenon and mourns the passing of what he considers to be a child's understanding of a higher wisdom. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Wordsworth/Solitary Reaper
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that offers summation and analysis of Williams Wordsworth's "The Solitary Reaper, a poem which offers a romantic view of what was undoubtedly a common sight during his lifetime for anyone traveling through the countryside--a person reaping the grain harvest on some rural farmstead. The context of the poem implies the everyday nature of this occurrence. However, Wordsworth's romantic vision teaches his reader to perceive this young woman, reaping and singing to herself, with new eyes and to consider how this ordinary scene was uniquely beautiful. No additional sources cited.

Works of Comedy which Overcome the Obstacle of Death
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing two works of comedy which manage to overcome the obstacle of death. In David Ives’ “All in the Timing” and Joseph Heller’s “Catch-22” both considered dark comedies, several elements are used in order for the obstacles of death to be overcome. In “All in the Timing” which contains six one act plays, Ives frames the last 36 hours of Trotsky’s death by the one act play proceeding it “The Universal Language” and the one act play which follows it “Philadelphia” which both included elements of the ridiculous while the Trotsky play itself manages to overcome its dark content by Trotsky’s fear of ice picks all the while having a mountaineer’s axe wedged in his head. In “Catch-22” Joseph Heller frames the life of his central character, Yossarian convinced that others are trying to kill him in the war and has a constant fear of death, with the deaths of others and the unusual reactions to these deaths. Yossarian himself manages to overcome death by successfully employing many tactics in order to do so. Ironically however as Yossarian manages to overcome death, he is more riddled by the death of others around him. As in the plays of Ives in which death is “talked around” the vision of Trotsky, a similar scene occurs in “Catch-22” in the death of Mudd who dies not long after he arrives and is therefore dumped in his tent and ignored. Each death scene in “Catch-22” however contains unusual observances and ultimately lightens its impact. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

[ send me this essay ]
Richard Wright's short story, The Man Who Was Almost A Man, is centered on the protagonist's transition to manhood and his misunderstanding of what 'being a man' means. This 4 page paper argues that the young man, Dave, views his masculinity as outside of himself - in the ability to own and shoot a gun.
