The Larks

Suicide In The Trenches In my analysis, I will demonstrate how Siegfred Sassoon has used many different language techniques to show his perspective on the true meaning of war. For example, the poet has used simplistic diction that creates an image of the destruction of a “simple soldier boy”. At first we see him whistling, this then degrades to depression which lead him to committing suicide. Siegfred Sassoon concludes his poem with anger and a powerful message. “Sneak home and pray you’ll

Good morning class, this morning/ afternoon I will be discussing how war is represented within society and how text structures and stylistic devices help to emphasise war within poems. I will be reading and analysing the poems Perhaps by Vera Brittain in 1919 and In Flanders Fields by John McRae in 1915. Perhaps and In Flanders Fields are both a Lyric poem and are about the feelings of grief and sorrow for loved ones lost in war. Perhaps was written by V. Brittain in response to the death of her

structure the first stanza but in opposite order, from small to large. The second stanza of the poem is turning in emotion and finishing with the poet taking "flight" and completing the second wing: "With thee O let me rise As larks, harmoniously, And sing this day thy victories: Then shall the fall further the flight in me." This stanza is rich in imagery. It seems like this stanza "beats its wing" against the decline of the first stanza, showing how the

Love and Lust If love is a small wave on a peaceful and sunny lake, then lust will be a roaring wave on the sea, billowy and tempestuous. The famous play Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is a great example of the themes love and lust. The plot of the play is about a family feud and their children's "love" story. Some people think that the most important point of the play is the family feud, but they neglect the important issue of Romeo and Juliet's foolish love. Romeo and Juliet

my state, Like to the lark at break of day arising,” (9-11), the reader notices that just when the speaker think about everything he does not have any everything that is currently going wrong in his life, he thinks of the mystery person and everything takes a turn for the better. It makes the audience feel as though it is happening in the present, and they are also travelling down the emotional road with the speaker. Because of this happy thought, the speaker feels like a “lark”, (11), and feels delighted

Within the justice system lays complex connotations that are either ignored or spun in a way that interprets different meanings. What is even more complex is how to guarantee justice in a society, more specifically the Chippewa society, where the legal system contains cracks that make it hard to bring justice for Native Americans. In The Round House, Erdrich explores this concept of bureaucratic intricacy that divides the United States jurisdiction and the Native American tribal lands. After Joe’s

Not being accustomed to such suffering, Joe has this want to return back to his normal summer-break life and to end the evil that has plagued his family. In response to his need for vengeance, Joe takes the matter into his own hands and kills Linden Lark. His act is prompted from his frustration with the law and how little the promised ‘justice’ is able to help his family. Unlike his peers, Joe had been surrounded by law and justice from a

nothing else. In the drama called A Doll House written by Henrik Ibsen, when Helmer calls Nora his little doll, puppet or anything like that, he is referencing back to the typical woman he wished her to be. Helmer continuously calls her names such as a lark and a spendthrift, and although they only sound like little pet names, he acts as though he actually views her as these things and wants to control her. He says, “Now, now, the little Lark’s wings mustn’t droop” (866). He wants to control and keep
