Kubla Khan:
- Imagination
- Poem divided into 3 sections – stylistically they are all different
- 2nd section Volta but – imagination has taken a different form
- You cannot quell imagination
- Tenses shift – written later – talking about a has been experience
- Damsel – represent the muse – sculpture art music poetry.
- Structure removed from the creative enjambment – more rigid and solid.
- Tone shifts from section to section
Poem in October:
- Nice to do with Kubla – elements of romanticism
- Syllabic meter – every line is a particular syllable
- 30th birthday realises that he is joining a new phase of his life – entering the
autumn of his life
- Goes back to his birthplace and relives his experiences of his youth
- No mention of other children – nature became his playmates and he identified
with it.
- He can still see his youth – summer on the hill
- Nature becomes the mechanism for him to move to a new timeframe
- He is almost looking on at the experience – distances himself and mentions
his young self as ‘he’ – becomes an enriching experience.
- Poem in October – in Europe it’s the beginning of autumn
- Each stanza is one sentence – a lot are enjambed lines
If thou must love me
- Contestation of patriarchal and done in the poem
- A feminist poem
- You’ve got to love me for who I am
- Poem starts playfully but has a very serious end
Wandering Aengus:
- Heroes journey
- Celtic mythology
- Experience the event of experience outcome(?)
- Promise of the dream – un/s/un/s/un
- Becomes the glimmering girl
- Hollow land heeling whatever. h sound
Hadedah:
- Exotic bird, indigenous to SA
- Rises with imagination
- Takes in history – absorbing – same as dreamhouse
- Optimistic
