English

kozerog [31]4 years ago
4 0

Deep in the Antartic wastelands, within one of the numerous penguin colonies there was a penguin who was different. He did not look like the other penguins; he did not think like other penguins. He was an anomaly. For a start, he wore horned-rimmed glasses that he found lying on the wreckage of an ancient whaling ship that floundered and was stuck in the ice close to where he lived. All the other penguins mocked him for wearing glasses. What they did not know, was that he loved reading the books found on the whaling ship.

In at least 100 words, describe how Whitman’s "Song of Myself" embodies Transcendental ideals.
andrew-mc [135]
Starting with its very title, "Song of Myself" is indeed a poetic embodiment of the transcendentalist philosophy. Whitman (or the speaker who calls himself Whitman) doesn't sing and praise some outside ideals or occurrences, but himself. This is the transcendentalist ideal of self-reliance, explained in Emerson's eponymous essay. It says that the greatest strength of every individual is his/her own self, independent, free from authority and restraints, liberated and self-sufficient. Both Emerson and Whitman, each in his own right, have written a giant ode to individualism.

Another transcendentalist ideal embodied in Whitman's famous poem is relationship with nature. In his view, nature is the source of genuine beauty and wisdom, uncorrupted by the touch of social and political institutions. Whitman says "<span>I will go to the bank by the wood and become undisguised and naked", which means that nature is the only realm of sincerity, and people can only be true to themselves if they are independent of humanity but close to nature.

Just like Transcendentalism has been a unique, authentic American take on Romanticism, Whitman has been the pillar of American national and cultural identity in poetry. He has taken the very American notion of individualism (defined and praised by transcendentalists) and put it in his poetry, most notably in "Song of Myself" as the most self-obsessed, yet not egotistical account of modern American poetry.</span>

Using proper and common nouns<br>​
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Proper nouns are always capitalized in English, no matter where they fall in a sentence. Because they endow nouns with a specific name, they are also sometimes called proper names. Every noun can be classified as either common or proper. A common noun is the generic name for one item in a class or group.
