Reading Assignments

Review Meyer Chapters 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29.  These chapters have fuller explanations of the elements of poetry as well as examples of poems that employ particular elements.  You need not read every word of these chapters, but you should be familiar with the explanations of the elements, themselves, so that you can apply them as needed to essay three.

Review Essay Three: Poetry Analysis

Continue the study of your poems.


Writing Assignments
