"the Seafarer" is not an easy poem to understand. One critic has said that almost any theory can be made to explain its meaning. What is tour theory? What main idea do you think the poet intends to convey? In your prewrting, list the carious thoughts and feelings the poet expresses in the poem.

I mean, I can't stand spiders anyway. I would rather they came to Vermont with tractors and knock down all the trees so maybe it would seem more sunny. And that's good unicorn-watchin' weather right there. And then guess what? No more Forest = No more Rain..... Voila! I just solved the whole kit & kabootle. So now we can move on to bigger issues like Unicorn preservation.

“Historians have disagreed on the true nature of the Renaissance. The clue to understanding it lies in
realizing that it was an age of contradictions, that it included many conflicting trends. Misery and
splendor, beauty and horror, despotism and the urge for free expression, all flourished side by side.”

Is this statement vaild based off a liturature on the renaissance.

It's for school and i;m having a hard time dealing with it.


Jacob Burckhardt- The Civilization of the Renaissance in Italy

Niccolo Machiavelli- The Prince

Baldassare Castiglione- The Book of the Courtier

Giovanni Boccaccio- The Decameron

-those are the doc/readings that i recived


also, should i write about the contradictions with other ages, or the contradictions inside the renaissance

Be honest! I usually write short stories but i feel poetry is such a dramatically amazing way to show how you feel and get right to the point! Enjoy.

Real Reality

Why do we not think,
About all those people who live on the brink?
All those people who live for others
On one knee and protecting their brothers.
If we would live like life should be
Living in a strong reality,
Knowing the truth that if we all stand tall
The foundation we stand on will never fall.
How come our brothers are crying?
Why are so many people dying?
Are we to weak to take a stand
Or just don't care about another’s land?
With all this music, partying and show
It's no wonder so many of us will never know
That nations are crying
Starving and dying.
Become a giver to the needy
Since we all have turned so greedy.
Turn your deaf ears to hear
The mournful cries, that do draw near.

for me..photography and books are what i live for.taking pictures just opens my eyes to new things and creating memories to share..making it more beautiful and meaningful.
and reading...just lets you think.. explore other imaginations and feel the way they do about things. and fantasy is quite my favorite...dreaming of a whole new world or species etc

tell me what you live for and your thoughts

I read a couple of books over the summer and one of them was Fahrenheit 451. It was really confusing and I didn't understand it well. If you read this book, what was it's message?

before you pain on the canvas, should you put a coat of something on the canvas before you paint directly on it? because i painted directly on the canvas and my paint didn't go on too smoothly! (i am used to water color and i am just now starting oils!)
