Barnby's Setting Of Tennyson's "Crossing The Bar" And Ireland's Version Of Masefield's "Sea Fever": Songs Of The Sea
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Understanding the greater meaning behind traditional songs of the sea enables one to gain a significantly better perspective of just how powerful the ocean's presence is in some people's lives. To those who live and breathe by the sea, her swelling waves and wafting salt air reflect a world still unknown to man yet comforting nonetheless. When Tennyson's Crossing the Bar and Masefield's Sea Fever were put to music by Barnby and Ireland, respectively, the already absorbing and intimate meanings beheld by the poems took on an even greater sense of emotion with each man's haunting melody, clearly expanding the meaning of the words. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Beowulf v. Odysseus/Who is the most attractive?
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares Odysseus, from Homer’s epic the Odyssey, and Beowulf. The epic heroes Odysseus and Beowulf appear to be very similar. They each are featured in an ancient epic poem and therefore engage in heroic action. Also, they each can be viewed as representative of their era and society’s culture. However, these cultures had distinctly different worldviews and valued different aspects of human behavior. Examination of both texts reveals that Odysseus is presented as being deeply human and, therefore, initially having flaws in his character. Beowulf, on the other hand, is portrayed as perfect. No additional sources cited.
