In my reading of Niedecker’s Poems, her use of sounds manifests largely in almost all parts of her literary work. In this regard, she makes of use of sound devices such as repetition, assonance, alliteration, consonance, rhyme, Onomatopoeia and Idiophones. It is significant to note that, it is due to the effect of these devices that my reading is enhanced as follows;
Niedecker’s poems are rich in repetition. More than often, I find that she constantly repeats some statements or special words. In essence, the repetition gives the text a lyrical lilt. As a result, I find myself ...

Dear Readers,

I was born in the Appalachian Mountains in the small coal-mining town of Grundy, which was almost ten miles from the Kentucky border. Our home at on Main Street, and we had the Levisa Fork River running right behind it. After graduating from college my mother had moved to Grundy to become a teacher in a school. My father was owned and operated a Ben Franklin store in our town.
Right after I graduated from Hollins with a Bachelors degree in English, I got married to my husband. My husband James is a poet and teacher, and since his teaching assignments kept on ...

At the beginning of the quarter, I lacked the self-believe that I could write something sensible. This resulted from lack of fluency and improper use of vocabularies. I lacked the ability to come up with ideas and organize them in an effective manner. This made my work lack details, hard to understand, and also incomplete. However, over the quarter, I have taken the time to practice by reading and writing different articles. This has built on my confidence and ability to organize my work. I have also been receiving positive feedback from peers and my tutor who has also ...

Children literacy file

There are very many books that tend to talk about childhood literacy though there are very many things involved. These books mainly discuss some of the problems related to children at their growth stages. One of the literary factors considered in children growth is the disease awareness. For instance, one of the literary actions that is to be taken into consideration is education on children. According to the research carried out over the years, it is evident that most of the children do learn verbal language and hearing skills from the mature adults.

E. E. Cummings is a poet known for his strategic and unique use of punctuation, spacing, rhythm, and poem construction which combine to create a powerful piece of literature. This is particularly true of “pity this busy monster manunkind,” which uses rhetorical devices such as line breaks, asides, and punctuation choices to generate meaning within the reader. The poem is, itself, an indictment of modern civilization, but it is conducted in such an abstract way, and through such a distorted lens, and it requires a reader to be astute and focused to derive the true meaning from the work. ...

The term close reading is quite self-explanatory, as it refers to a detailed observation and analysis of any piece of writing (in this case a poem). Close readings are necessary to decipher the purpose behind poetry and also to reveal specific hidden connotations. It is quite fascinating to observe that almost everyone would conclude their own distinctive analysis of the same poem. The underlying reasons behind this variation are personal experiences, frame of thought and prior perceptions.
Although, the average reader doesn’t exactly follow a pattern while closely reading a poem, there are some rough steps adopted by all. Firstly, the ...

My literacy development was somewhat more reticent to develop than the average person, but throughout my school experience, I learned to love reading and the art of the book. Now I am an avid reader, and attempt to take steps to inform myself as much as possible whenever I can. In this essay, I shall detail the reasoning behind my current and former literary practices, and tie them to how it developed throughout my life.

I did not have a great deal of literacy experience growing up in Korea. My parents were avid readers, but their attempts to inspire me ...

The moon rises high in the sky, its silvery light creating an eerier aura, as the screams of a woman echoes through the landscape. The creature turns its head attracted by the sounds of pain and fear as it rips through the veil between the living and dead. “The night of Samhain,” it thinks, “the perfect night for escape.” As the time when the veil between the living and dead is the thinnest, Samhain is the time signally the end of lightness and the beginning of darkness. Exhausted creature slides down to the Earth, the first time it had been ...

Difficulty of learning English for international students

Background

One of the biggest problems facing qualitative research in the field of education is how to be certain that the quality presented by the research is trustworthy. It is often too common to assume that the quality of research presents itself a powerful knowledge that is too convincing in its own right. However, this is not supposed to be the case as qualitative research studies have to be subjected to critical evaluation using criteria in order to justify its value. Whenever qualitative research studies are evaluated for the quality of their value, it helps to eliminate unnecessary criticism from ...

Paragraph 1: Prewriting

In my personal opinion, both nature and nurture influence the way we become. My opinion is informed by:

Objective and subjective observations of my own characteristics and abilities.

Objective and subjective observations made on friends and relatives.

Reading and research on the nature versus nurture debate.

Paragraph 2: Body

In regard to nature, some of my behavioral characteristics are shared by other members of my family despite the absence of the influence of nurture.

Nurture on the other hand is depicted by changes in my personality from being an introvert to an extrovert ever since I started dating my overly extrovert boyfriend.

Paragraph 3: Body

Discussion on Hispanic Poetry

It was a great delight to read the book “Platero and I” by Juan Ramón Jiménez as it appeared to be light, easy and gentle. I do not remember coming across a story in which the author puts so much effort into describing an animal that is not only his friend but also a soul mate. I enjoyed reading those paragraphs which are dedicated to the description of the donkey. Jiménez has chosen such tender and warm words to describe Platero that every reader will immediately fall in love with this soft and hairy donkey “made ...

Reflection Paper: Communication

Introduction
In both the reading by Kate Menken and the one by Coleman and Goldenberg, the focus is on English language learners and the struggles they face in their attempt to learn the language. Coleman and Goldenberg begin by providing the standards required for teaching English language and then give solutions to the challenges based on the theme of interaction. This is what they consider the best way to help people learn the language. Menken, on the other hand, sees test exams as a barrier to progression for non-English speaking students which can only be helped by a change ...

"Like Father, Like Son"

I have always thought of why my friends, teachers and acquaintances associated me with politics. However, I never got an answer. Could be this assignment will help me to realize whether the people that I have always interacted with are right or wrong. It was not very hard for me to choose among the many experiences that I had in my elementary to have a topic that I can discuss in this assignment. In this assignment, I decided to talk about how my father behavior affected my development as a child, although I cannot certainly say that his behavior ...

The reading Unyielding an Oligarch vs. Putin was surely a tragic report. It shows how power is abused at its best. Mr Khodorkovsky a leading business magnet and the owner of Yukos oil was detained and trial for the crimes he did not commit. The only sin committed by him was to support rival political forces of President Vladimir Putin
The situation becomes complex in the case of Chinese government. The reading provides a picture of the attitude of intolerance from the Government of China. It provides that although the government has taken serious actions against the committers of crime, but ...

Who am I? What am I? What is my name? All these questions do not matter for me. I am neither a man, nor a monster. I do not live, I survive. How did I get to it? Let me tell you my story and you will understand everything.
My story begins somewhere in the nineteenth century. I woke up tied on the table. A man in a white coat was standing over me. For the first time he was smiling, but in a moment his face became contorted with a terror. I did not understand many things that time, but I felt ...

Dear Mr. Luby,

I hereby request for an opportunity to stage the famed play Radio Golf by August Wilson. As highlighted in the previous letter, the play seeks to highlight the American history in the light of African American perspective.
The Play Radio Golf was written by August Wilson in 2005 just before his unprecedented death. It was his last play in a series of 10 plays that he had written before representing the African American historical background. The play was a form of a summary of the other plays in which Wilson attempted to trace down the history of African American from the ...

Mason Cooley once said, “There are different rules for reading, for thinking, and for talking. Writing blends all three of them.”(Cooley). I believe that the main purpose of writing is to include a range of skills necessary for the quality of expression, communication and learning. Through writing, a person is able to express their personal ideas, opinions, and feelings to a larger audience.
Writing can be defined in many different manners, but as a whole writing is a method of representing language in visual format. Different writing systems mimic speech sounds or symbols. In a written text interaction space is important, allowing for ...

Peter Elbow wrote a very interesting article titled “Writing First”. In it, he posits the idea that it discourages children from learning if you put reading before writing, like what is traditionally done. He also proposes that, for college students, writing before completing a reading assignment in either a creative writing class or philosophy class can help the student to approach the assignment with an open and an especially inquiring mind. What Elbow proposes is intriguing, and it makes sense. Now, I do not completely agree with him when he says that children should be taught to read by learning first to ...

There is no secret ingredient for being a good mother. This is what the “Future Home of Living God” story indicates. The story of Cedar Hawk Songmaker, on her birth name Mary Potts reveals that a woman should develop her own style of being a mother.

She felt ...
