Answer:

The excerpt from:

  • "Annabel Lee" is written in a sestet
  • "In Memorium" is written in a quatrain
  • "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is written in an octave
  • "Hero and Leander" is written in couplets

Explanation:

A sestet is a stanza composed of six lines, a quatrain of four lines, an octave is written in eight lines, and a couplet is a set of two rhyming lines, usually written in the same meter.

It is important to note that the definitions of all these types of stanzas have varied with different works and origins and some can further be classified into various sub-types depending on their position in the poem, meter, use, etc., and can be further elaborated with typical rhyme schemes that they use; however, the common aspect that they share is the number of lines, which is what the question is based on.

Which words from “ The Pedestrian “ help convey Bradbury’s message that a TV-obsessed world is a sad lonely place ?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

I read this is in 7th grade!! It is a book about Leonard Mead who is the only man in the future that takes walks! Everyone else just stays inside watching TV. Since no one goes outside anymore, his behavior is considered regressive and he is arrested. Bradbury feared this might happen during the world war ||. He did not like technology at all, and said it was dangerous!

Some literacy critics have defined tragedy as “the downfall of a hero.” Would Aristotle agree? How might he revise this definiti
Ket [755]
Aristotle‘s ideas about drama were based on a generally Greek belief that tragedy was the highest form of drama. He said that tragedy is an imitation of an action that is serious. Moreover, he expected the drama to cause the feeling of the pity and fear that are to cause the catharsis – the purification of emotions. Thus, in Aristotelian perspective, tragedy tells about the high deeds or feeling of a man.

How does “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” break away from traditional poetic conventions? Select all that apply.
gulaghasi [49]

A.

The incorporation of many allusions to other texts breaks with poetic conventions inasmuch as poetry is traditionally based in telling the story of a character or a group of characters in a straightfowards fashion that does not refer to things outside the story except in a referential sense. This would be the case in most epic poetry, like the ´Iliad´ or ´Paradise Lost´.

B.

The poem distorts the traditional meaning of poetry in the sense that traditional poetry is based in the epic form, where clearly delineated characters are set out in some traditional heroic or tragic scenario. Prufrock´s existence is opposed to any real heroic or classic tragic plot.
