The differences between the letter and the poem are first that the letter is way more accurate than the poem.The reason they are mainly different is that the letter is much more accurate than the poem the first example is that the letter was written by Paul Revere.The second reason is that the poem depicts the somerset as a phantom ship and and menacing.This is surprising because in the letter of Paul revere he did not mention the somerset.The writer of the poem most likely added this to make the story more appealing to audiences. He also put that the somerset was menacing and that it was described as a phantom ship this shows that he was writing something that not boring to an audience.The third reason that i know that the poem writes is not
In terms of form, one can see there is a difference between one poem that is an epigram, has a rhyme and is more subjective, and another poem that is in free verse, does not rhyme and is very dry and
That supports my reasoning. Another reason the poem and letter written about Paul Revere are similar is because in the letter he is warned of British soldiers ahead of him by other people while there is no evidence of this in the poem. A quote to support me is from the letter written by Paul Revere it states “ While the horse was preparing, Richard Devens, Esq., who was one of the Committee of Safety, came to me and told me that he came down the road from Lexington after sundown that evening; that he met ten British Officers, all well mounted, and armed, going up the road.” This quote is important because in the quote someone is warning him of ten enemy soldiers ahead. There is no evidence in the reading written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow this proves that the two documents because one reading has something the other doesn’t. Lastly, the two reading are different because in the letter it gives details about where Paul warned people from one place to the other unlike the other article. A quote to support this is from the letter it states “ In Medford, I awaked the Captain of the minutemen; and after that, I told almost every house, till I got to Lexington [10].” This quote is important because it say how far he went to warn people and how and a person he did
The first recognizable difference between the two poems is the point of view and theme. To Sir John Lade was written in second person, as to congratulate Sir John on his way to adulthood.
Have you ever had to deliver a message and let no body get in your way? This is what Paul Revere experienced on April 18, 1775. There are many similarities and differences between the historical accounts of Paul Revere’s ride and the fictional portrayal, “The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere.” In both sources, lanterns were hung in the church. However both sources had different statements about the amount of messengers. Longfellow used history to make an interesting story, but he altered the facts to make Paul Revere sound more like a hero.
The readers were informed by the author of 2 Thessalonians not to get too excited if they received letters that were falsely written using Paul’s name. There was an indication that the apostolic writers had begun a practice of circulating forged documents. The method of creating new letters (documents) in the name of someone else; for instance, not the person that have been identified as the author was known as pseudonymity and became a standard practice in both Hellenistic-Jewish and early Christianity.
Analyse the contribution that Paul of Tarsus had on the development and expression of Christianity.
The most obvious difference is the fact that one shows the perspective of a woman while the other tells a story from a man's perspective. The letter is written by a guy in the army to his wife and kids. He talks more about how he loves the Country so much that he is willing to die for it. The major does not really mind the fact that he is about to die and leave his family behind. Instead he tells his wife and kids to stay strong and that he will always be there for them. In contrast, the poem talks about how the women values her husband’s love and how he is such an idol. She would put her husband before anything and anyone. Just by reading the poem people are able to tell how much this women respects and loves her husband.Although they both love their families, one is willing to give up his life and abandon them.
They both are amazed at the numbers of the flock that they observed, stating “in greater numbers than I thought I had ever seen them before” (Passage 1) and then rephrased in “The flight extended like a fluttering banner, an unfurled oriflamme, in either direction as far as I could see.” (Passage 2). The difference between the two writing styles is one uses a direct and straightforward use of tone through phrases like “In the autumn of 1813...from north-east to south-west...I dismounted, seated myself on an eminence” (Passage 1). These phrases show no emotion but simply describe the action or the setting. The other style is the reciprocal of this direct approach, having a childlike curiosity and questioning its surroundings in phrases like “unexpectedness of this beauty...Could tiny birds be sifting through me right now, birds winging through the gaps between my cells, touching nothing, but quickening in my tissues, fleet?” (Passage
Artists write or compose things for a specific reason, usually this is to convey a feeling to the listener or reader. When words are placed with music, it can change how a person hears or thinks of a song. In the song “Run” by George Strait he creates a feeling of desperation and longing not only with his lyrics, but also with the melody that goes along with it. Music is powerful, and it can change your attitude towards something just by the sound and tone of music. By adapting a song into a letter, one can either change the meaning of the whole song or allow it to give the reader the same feeling as before. I changed George’s song into a letter to show how things can be different or the same when you take music out of a piece.. In my adaptation
The turn of the 20th century brought about a massive shift in society. It was the end of the Victorian era, marked by Queen Victoria’s death in 1901, leaving the world at free range to develop a new social construct. With change sprouting up in all aspects of life, new ideas were being explored in the visual, performing, and literary arts. The early 1900’s marked a shift in literary focus. The surrealist movement began in literature in the late 1890s. These types of readings were inspired by psychology and intended to be shocking. Literature dove into topics it had never previously explored. Willa Cather’s short story, “Paul’s Case: A Study in Temperament”, published in 1905, explored very heavy topics like human nature and mental illness,
Both Augustine and Paul opine the morality about sexual conducts. Inspired by the writings of Paul, Augustine agrees that lust is evil since it sets obstacles to devote oneself entirely to God; therefore, the flesh bonds the spirit. In other words, celibacy makes one holy. However, not everyone can resist the temptation, so they both offer marriage as the solution, but for different reasons: Augustine thinks that the sin of lust becomes forgivable because marriage turns evil into love for one another, and fulfills God’s wish for human to “be fruitful and multiply”, while Paul suggests that marriage is simply a way to avoid immorality such as fornication or adultery by having a stable relationship. Indeed, though both consent that marriage is not sin, they have different reasons. As far as I am concerned, Augustine’s explanation is better since the marriage he refers to fits the modern world while Paul’s idea is not practical for modern society in terms of procreation and offspring.
Willa Cather expresses her boredom and dissatisfaction with the typical and expected American way of life. Cather, during her time writing for a magazine, became unhappy writing the standard articles she had to write. Instead, she wanted to focus her time on more controversial, sensitive pieces (Cather 369). She expresses her feelings through Paul, in “Paul’s case: A Study in Temperament” by making Paul an outcast in his society. Paul is miserable with living the American dream, which gives insight to Cather’s modern age thinking. The way Cather creates a character that does not fit in, gives the message that not everyone is the exact same when it comes to what makes him or her happy. Forcing people to conform to societal standards can have
Paul’s letters pre-date the gospels. What do they reveal about the message that the apostle was preaching about Jesus at this early stage in Christian history? To what extent does it concur with Luke’s gospel?
The styles of the poets also differ, Christopher Marlowe using simple and understandable language while Andrew Marvel uses formal complicated language. Therefore the styles of the poems differ also.
St Paul of Tarsus is a significant figure in Christianity due to his major contributions of writings and letters which form a significant amount of the New Testament. St Paul is considered to be the forefather of Christianity after Jesus. Paul had a major impact on these spread of Christianity through his mission journeys, contributing to the religious traditions and helping expand Jesus’ original teachings. The reason behind Paul being a significant person in Christianity is because he contributed to the development of Christianity.
