The connection can be identified by the meaning of some keywords (which are in bold) doing this, here we have the correct connection of the senses with the phrases:

Smell

"cooking assailed our nostrils: waves of za'tr, of roast mutton, of fried aubergine, and mint-spiced salad washed over us in turn"

Touch

"They made her a soft bed on a slab of moonstone with layers of soft petals but the flowers wilted, Sita writhed and groaned and complained of everything"

Taste

"We were served large dishes of fried potatoes, sliced aubergine in tomato sauce and diced slated cheese, and a bowl of pomegranates and watermelons. There was a heap of hot pitas in the centre of the table"

Sound

"Drum and cymbals issued forth, immediately followed by an Arab Song, sung in a sweet paintive voice, with delicate flowing trills"

Sight

"The crescent moon rose from behind the eastern mountains and the peaks of the gently stirring waves glistened in its feeble rays, intermingled with threads of light liking from the houses of Manfalout scattered along the opposite bank"

How is Wordsworth’s definition of poetry as "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings" a reflection of the Romantic period?

Vaselesa [24]

The Romantic period is characterized by passion and emotion being more credible and trustworthy than logic and reason. Wordsworth defines poetry as "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings" reflects Romanticism because it is full of feeling, not thinking. An Enlightenment definition would be something like "literary work expressing something using style and rhythm." This definition shows the importance of feelings over thinking for Wordsworth, and how reality doesn't matter in his style. Poetry was the form of choice because it lacks structure especially since most Romantics wrote in blank verse, completely devoid of structure. Poetry is meant to be an emotional art form without structure in blank verse, and Romantics preferred feeling, so lack of structure would remove an obstacle to really let emotions shine in their work.

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.” My friend had concluded that if he took hi

arlik [135]

The correct answer is: Each author uses figurative language.

Indeed, the first author uses figurative language (he took the tortillas out of his poetry) which is followed by a very explicit explanation, that the character in question “took the soul out of his poetry”. This use of figurative language is effective in eliciting an emotional response from the reader by the pathos of the premise, that removing foreign, Mexican Spanish words from the character’s poetry also removes its soul, in other words, its identity.

The second author also uses figurative language and there is a hint of irony in the description that immediately follows the dialogue. The immediate landscape is used to show the “heritage-deprived” person that he actually does have a heritage. In other words, he does not need to be a hyphenated American in order to have a heritage because it is right there “dangling over his head”.

The symbolism of the “tall American tree” is used to show how the speaker of these lines that America has its own heritage, which lies in its history, its melting pot and its territory and he cannot even see it.
