English

vovangra [49]4 years ago

Answer:

Sonnet 29 shows the poet at his most insecure and troubled. He feels unlucky, shamed, and fiercely jealous of those around him. What causes the poet's anguish will remain a mystery; as will the answer to whether the sonnets are autobiographical. 

However, an examination of Shakespeare’s life around the time he wrote Sonnet 29 reveals two traumatic events that may have shaped the theme of the sonnet. In 1592 the London theatres closed due to a severe outbreak of plague. Although it is possible that Shakespeare toured the outlying areas of London, it is almost certain that he left the theatre entirely during this time to work on his sonnets and narrative poems. The closing of the playhouses made it hard for Shakespeare and other actors of the day to earn a living. With plague and poverty looming it is expected that he would feel "in disgrace with fortune"

In two or three paragraphs, analyze the structure of The Way to Rainy Mountain and show how the structure affects the impact of
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

    In Navarre Scott Momaday's The Way to Rainy Mountain, he attempts to reconnect with his American Indian (Kiowa) history by traveling to Rainy Mountain, Oklahoma, to visit his late grandmother's grave. Momaday is a professor of English at the University of Arizona and holds degrees from both the University of New Mexico and Stanford University.

    Despite the fact that Momaday is a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, critic, and academician, this critic believes that his flow of writing has disappointed the reader and that he has possibly lost his ability to connect with his readers because he fails to describe his feelings in detail, especially in nostalgic writing.
