Meeting at Night"

English

kogti [31]3 years ago

Meeting at Night, written by Robert Browning was originally much longer in its original version. Titled in the beginning as Night and Morning, it had three stanzas instead of only two, but later on Browning decided to separate the third stanza and create them as two separate shorter poems. The first one is Meeting at Night and the second, Parting at Morning.

1. When analysing the stanzas and their rythm, one finds a very peculiar characteristic in this poem and it applies to both stanzas equally; the poet, wishing to generate a visual imagery and emotions in his readers, creates the lines in such a way that the first stanza rhymes with the sixth, the second with the fifth and the third rhymes with the fourth line. This applies, as said before, in both stanzas. You can see this because of the smiliar ending sound of the words used at the end of each of the lines that rhyme. For example, "Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach" with "Than the two hearts beating each to each.

2. The idea of the poem is to express the longing and desire that a lover has to finally reach the person he loves. This is shown through the imagery that Browning uses that expresses this longing from the speaker of the poem. For example, "And the startled little waves that leap" "In fiery ringlets from their sleep", which portrays how much the speaker cannot stop but think about his lover and compare her to nature itself.

3. In the first stanza, the image gotten is literally of a person who has to still endure time and space that separates him from the one he loves and how his mind cannot stop from thinking constantly about the longing for this person. His longing even becomes so intense, that the beauty of nature only becomes a nuisance that separates him from his ultimate goal.

4. He says this because he is comparing the image of the waves as they first rise from the sea to the way his lover looks, the way her hair rises and turns to fiery ringlets when she rises from sleep.

5. In the last line, the image given by the speaker of the poem is of a man convinced of the union and love that joins two people despite time, space, happiness and hardships. He also talks about how this union comes from much more than just physical contact; it comes from the joining of two hearts that become one.

omeli [17]

Answer:

One sharp difficulty presented itself. In the intervening twenty-five years my name had become reasonably well known.

Explanation:

In the book by John Steinbeck, <em>Travels with Charley, </em>the author describes the road trip he took in 1960 around America with his dog Charley because he wanted to have a view of his country on a more intimate level, a different perspective.

The statement that showed that there was a problem was the fact that Mr Steinbeck was quite popular and as such was recognized by quite a number of people.

How does Epstein develop his central idea that genetics plays an important role in athletic ability over the course this excerpt
Veseljchak [2.6K]

<em>The Sports Gene </em>was written by David Epstein and published in 2013.

This book supports the idea that sports success has to do with both 'nature and nurture', that both genetics and training are highly influential, but also that each of them cannot bring what the other does.

The more a person practises, the better he/she will be. But up to a point. No one can achieve something that his/her body is not biologically or genetically prepared to do. This idea is in disagreement with other authors such as Anders Ericsson, who supported that training mattered more than innate talents and that could offset genetic inclinations.

What is the theme of the Wife of Bath Tale?
yarga [219]

Answer:

I had to do a little Googling because I had no idea what "The Wife of Bath's Tale" even is lol. And I got a few answers.

"The theme of power is evident throughout the tale."

"Sex, marriage, and domination."

"Women and femininity."

So considering out of all the options you've provided and the options I found, Feminism might be the most accurate answer.

Good luck, hope this helped!
