569 "Because I could not stop for Death" and "Neighbor Rosicky". This paper compares "Because I could not stop for Death" and "Neighbor Rosicky." Emily Dickinson's poem #712, "Because I could not stop for Death", and Willa Cather's short story, "Neighbor Rosicky", both conjure up images and emotions related to death and human mortality. Each contains passages in which the characters ponder death, but they do so from contrasting perspectives. The narrator of Dickinson's poem wishes, albeit in vein, to avoid death, while Cather's Rosicky, although he does not wish to die, accepts death with a kind of benevolent resignation.

16110 "The Idea of Order at Key West": An Analysis This four-page undergraduate paper examines the poem, "The Idea of Order at Key West" by Wallace Stevens. The author explains that in determining the speaker's meaning, and in identifying how the experience of overhearing a song changed how the speaker perceived the boundary between the sea and the sky, it is evident that upon hearing the woman's voice raised in song, the speaker was awakened to the symbolic audio and visual parallels between music and nature, which enabled him to see the boundary between the sea and the sky from an entirely new point of view.

16171 Spring - Comparison Between Spenser and Carew Spring is a time of bringing life to earth as it breathes upon the flowers, trees, birds, and animals. Edmund Spenser and Thomas Carew describe "spring" in different ways, yet they both use similar methods of literary tools. Personification, romanticism, images, alliteration, and metaphors are literary tools that the writers use to paint a picture of springtime. Spenser and Carew set the mood for the poem in different ways. Spenser's poem seems to call spring to arise and get ready for love. "Make haste therefore, sweet love, whilst it is still prime, for none can call again the passed time." It is as if he wants the earth to wake and get ready to bring life anew to the earth.

16182 "The Dream of the Rood" An Analysis of Pagan Elements This three-page undergraduate essay analyzes the Old English poem, "The Dream of the Rood" and examines the overshadowing of Christian elements by pagan elements. The author notes that this can be explained by the historical context of the poem, for the author felt compelled to include pagan elements as a co-opting tool in order to convert them to Christianity. Since the thematic focus of the poem is the victory won by Christ over sin, the tactical use of pagan elements that perhaps overshadow Christian elements is justified by the strategic goal of converting pagans to Christianity.

819 Real Life Experiences On Work. This paper discusses the poet, Gary Soto. In spite of Soto's individualism, he is very much a contemporary American poet. Like many of his peers, he writes liberally in an autobiographical or confessional manner. As an intensively thoughtful poet, he seeks to maintain his connection to his Mexican customs and traditions as it exists on both sides of the border. His work often focuses on the demise of his father at a tender age, on his difficulties in romantic affairs and the urgency of emotional closeness with his family. On a broader level, Soto speaks vehemently on behalf of endurance and mutual respect, while he denounces middle- and upper class comfort and indifference to the poor. As a Chicano working-class poet, Soto sometimes uses representative language that might be unusual to and difficult for some of us. As a poet with a strong sense of association with people who are poor, abandoned, and oppressed, Soto tries to create poetry out of customary working-class experience and images. All this is very different from typically bourgeois American poetry.

825 Robert Frost This paper is written on the American poet, Robert Frost. His poetry, like his life, is filled with the contrasts of happiness and somberness. He became America's most beloved poet for his work. Frost won four Pulitzer Prizes and the poem The Road Not Taken is one of his finest piece of work. The more we read of Frost, the more we are impressed with his intellect, his thinking, his feelings, his understanding and his way of expression. Each poem is like a discovery of life, experienced by all of us. The interest he creates in his poem is absolutely superb. He portrays the incidents and other such influences that may have had a bearing on an individual life. Each poem brings us closer to life, makes us appreciate life's simple pleasures, as in birds, flowers, and fruits and the wonders of nature. And those jewels of thought can catch any one of us off guard. The depth of words creates a profound feeling at once and lingers long afterwards too and also gathers wider meanings and interpretations.
