hjlf

<em>Notice that Euchner uses present-tense verbs in his account.  </em>

<em>     1. In what verb tense is historical text usually written?</em>

  • <em>In both past and present. It is necessary to use the present tense to discuss the actions and ideas that are present in the text. For example, “Edgar Allan Poe in his Method of Composition explains all the steps he generally follows to write short stories”. In this example it is stated that despite Edgar Allan Poe is dead his ideas are present in his Method of Composition.  </em>
  • <em>We use the past tense when writing about specific historical events. For example, “Winston Churchill said that Germany was dangerously building his armies again.”  </em>

<em>     2. What effect does using present-tense verbs create?  </em>

  • <em>The effect it has, is related to the fact that despite the writer is dead or alive, his or her ideas continue to be present. Literature is a present observable fact.</em>

jarptica [38.1K]

1- The stress syllables are used to highlight the important words and concepts as in <em>To </em><em>speak</em><em> of </em><em>that </em><em>which </em><em>gives</em><em> thee </em><em>all </em><em>thy </em><em>might</em><em>? </em>(bold-faced parts are the stress syllables).

2- The (mostly) regular rhythm does  highlight the overall emotional weight on the poem, just try it by reading it out loud as the stress syllables are easy to identify.

There is no evidence of sarcasm nor anger throughout the poem.
