Coleridge/Shelley

1) Since the power of the imagination is often exalted in Romantic poetry, in my opinion, "Kubla Khan" does celebrate imagination. Coleridge promotes excitement and enthusiasm. Such as “That sunny dome! Those caves of ice! And all who heard should see them there, And all should cry, Beware! Beware!”
The form of this poem is chant like with a provoke excitement and cause imagination.

Coleridge is writing this poem for anyone who wants to celebrate imagination. Although Coleridge dreamed lines of the poem without his imagination he wouldn’t have been able


2) In Shelley's "Ozymandias", there are two speakers. The first speaker is used to introduce the poem for the first line. The second speaker helps bring an understanding to the reader.Ozymandias shows the reader that two things will forever be. One is that the underling power of Mother Nature will never end. The second is that everyone for the rest of his or her life feels human’s actions.

Chimney Sweep

I agree with the editors in a way that the author, Blake have the ability to change the labor that were forced upon young children. This poem is the Children's reality but the reader's imagination.

Because the readers have never been through what the children have endured they only can feel empathy toward the children. 

They included the Parliament Transcript as a primary source document in with the story because they wanted to see Blake's view of the children and there rights. They also did this to show that something that can be little and seem unnecessary but can really and the issues and importance later in life.

Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels

A)
Why did Swift have the “small people” speak a different language. How did the language barrier affect the story? Would the story have been different if they could understand one another? What the story have progressed differently if they could understand each other? How to signals affect the relationships in the story?
Exerts that we will be using from the story will deal with the signals and signs that they used as a form of communication throughout the story such as when he moved his hand to his mouth to motion that he wanted food and drink.

B)
When we first started the assignment my group because we weren’t always on the same page when it came to picking a topic to convey to the class. After we discussed all of the possible views we could take, we came to the conclusion that it would be easiest to teach others about the language barrier because it was the most interesting to us. I learned that if you don’t understand the material and enjoy the topic it would be hard to convey the message and information to others.

C)
My group and I need to research the reasons why an author might make groups of people speak different languages in the story. I think that we need to approach the subject of the view of the “small” people who understood the signals and signs throughout the story.
