Read the fragment below and identify some literary devices in it:
--"Your hands were like paws then, your face blue and bleak
But now I'm bewitched by your delicate cheek,
And your little gloves fit as on any la-dy!"--
"We never do work when we're ruined," said she.
BY Thomas Hardy
It is a poetry, with one stranza.In the first line the literature term is the simile, making the comparison of "your hands were like paws."
ResponderEliminarThe literary term observed in the second line is the mood "Your face blue and bleak" it means sadness or sorrow,giving a description.
ResponderEliminarIn the second line the literary term is the description "Your face blue and bleak", expressing sadness or sorrow.
ResponderEliminarVery good, Ana! It is a POEM constituted by one STANZA. There is SIMILE in there as well as DESCRIPTION. What does the rest of the class think?
ResponderEliminarThe voice: I think in the first paragraph is the literary term "Irony" that a contrast between what is and really means is made.You are agree?
ResponderEliminarI'm agreed with Ana this example is a poetry because a first sight is a stanza and in the first line we can see a simile when he compares the hands
ResponderEliminar"Your hands were like paws then, your face blue and BLEAK But now I'm bewitched by your delicate CHEEK"is a Rhythm
ResponderEliminarNow, try to analyze the fragment below:
ResponderEliminar…….Rain, midnight rain, nothing but the wild rain on this bleak hut, and solitude, and me remembering again that I shall die and neither hear the rain nor give it thanks for washing me cleaner than I have been since I was born into this solitude. Blessed are the dead that the rain rains upon: but here I pray that none whom once I loved is dying to-night or lying still awake……….
BY Edward Thomas
This is a prouse, and I Think that is present the repitetions of a group of a words as a ( alliteration) ej: rain... all the emotions that arouses the word rain , suggests a connotation and description...

EliminarTime is almost over... You'll have until tomorrow to participate... After analyzing the fragment above you have to write a Haiku of your own. Use your creativity and remember: It is a three-line poem, constituted by five SYLLABLES in the first line, seven syllables in the second one and five syllables in the third. Include elements of nature! Amaze me!!! :)
ResponderEliminarMy Haiku:
EliminarAn old silent came soon
A rain jumps into my sweet heart
Splash! A silent again slowly
In the first line of the prose I agrre with Hildemary about the literaty term imagery...the wild rain..., and according to Alexandra the mood is the solitude, there is also another term; these one imagery ,... washing me cleaner..., than I have been since I was born into this solitude, it is present in the last line an irony.
ResponderEliminarIn my participation I agree with Alexandra , the mood is the solitude, .... I shall die and neither hear the rain is an irony.
ResponderEliminarIt has one paragraph so it is a prose like my classmate Alexandra said.
ResponderEliminarWrite A Haiku
ResponderEliminarYou are the biggest,
the one that shines in the sky
bringing us the life.
My Haiku
ResponderEliminarHe is like a star,
however more a wished him
neither I had him.
In the story the characters use the flashbacks to narrate or tell the events and they are also presented out of chronological order, for example Lockwood starts the story in the first chapter, in the fourth chapter when Lockwood requests information about his neighbours, Mrs. Dean says to him what occur when Mr. Earnshaw brought the gossip boy to Wuthering Heigths.
