controlled and systematic.” This may be seen particularly in Bach’s Orgel-Buchlein, more commonly known as “The Little Organ Book,” which contains 46 chorale preludes for organ which has been argued to be “a key to understanding his music as a whole.” Each of these chorales within the ‘Orgel-Buchlein’ takes an original Lutheran chorale and develops it by adding a motivic development. Further, throughout Bach’s Orgel-Buchlein, he explores diverse range of expressive techniques, techniques

creating yet another third progression G#-A#-B. The B is to be read not as V of E but as II of A, unfolding to tonic through two consecutive fifths B-E-A [EX.2]. As we shall see, the contour of the bass forecasts what is to come; additionally this prelude within the Preludio presents the material for further elaboration and development. Now firmly in A, a memorable passage

In this essay I hope to uncover the many instances that William Wordsworth inconspicuously places his mother into The Prelude and to explore the multimodal occurrence of paternal loss throughout the text. Although both of Wordsworth's parents perished while he was young in years, it seems that his mother, Ann Wordsworth, was the greatest influencer of his poetic artistry. The loss of Ann Wordsworth can be said to be a defining point in the young William Wordsworth's life, and have had more of an

Wordsworth, whose poetry conveys the warning of a man asking those enveloped in the world to step back and recognize the beauty and miracles of nature. A few of the texts in which this warning of Wordsworth’s is very potent include Tinturn Abbey, The Prelude, The World Is Too Much With Us, and London, 1802. These works all include a reference to the fall or the cultural decline of the people in the world, especially those he sees around himself. The amazing gift of nature is the blessing Wordsworth sees

"The Natural Law" is the term he uses to portray this kind of reason. He accepts that Wordsworth in "The Prelude" is principally concerned with Nature as landscape and nation life. This is the thing that will bring the youthful William to the reason that exists in the Nature and instructs his brain. The landscape achieves reason, and it is consequently the edifier

William Wordsworth’s poem, The Prelude, he describes how he imagines London to be. He is very descriptive when he touches on what he expects upon arrival to the city, and then realizes London was not the paradise he alluded to earlier in his poem. William Wordsworth use of imagery and diction reflect the city’s natural environment, which he also uses in order to convey his feelings of anticipation and dissatisfaction with what he has discovered. In the beginning of The Prelude, William Wordsworth’s use

Literature: Demonstrating Individual “Ideologies” while Challenging the Dominant Ideology Introduction Ernst Fischer believes that literature “always transcends the ideological limits of its time, yielding us insight into the realities which ideology hides from view” (Eagleton 8). This is mostly true because, I argue, literature per se tries to convey individual ideologies, while it tries to push beyond the limits of the dominant ideology in order for us to see more about the realities; however,

incorporated into his later great poem, The Prelude, but as a singular piece it reflects The Prelude’s recurring themes of reflection and memory. Considered to be the Romantic Era’s great poet of memory, Wordsworth aimed to publish an autobiographical work of poetry which would detail events which he felt had contributed to the growth of his mind as a poet. “Nutting,” written at the same time as several other childhood recollections which would later appear in The Prelude, details an event from his past which

The Way Wordsworth and Heaney Present Nature and Rural Life in Their Poetry Born 1770, in Cockermouth, William Wordsworth spent his early life and many of his formative years attending a boys' school in Hawkshead, a village in the Lake District. As can be seen in his poetry, the years he spent living in these rural surroundings provided many of the valuable experiences Wordsworth had as he grew up. At the age of 17, Wordsworth moved south to study at Saint John's College

Rafi 1 Name: Salman Rafi Roll#: 09-27311 Prof: Liaquat Date: 13th May, 09 “Child is the father of Man” Wordsworth wrote a poem The Rainbow and left behind a very famous saying that “child is the father of man.” This statement has been interpreted by various critics in various ways. For Wordsworth, it is important because a child is spiritually very elevated. He has a direct link with nature. He says that a child is a symbol of purity and innocence which remains untarnished until he
