Overview<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Why read poetry? The poet Amy Lowell said that question was like asking, \u201cWhy should one eat?\u201d In other words, for some people, poetry is both nourishing and essential\u2014it can make us cry, soothe us when we are upset, stir us up when we are complacent, and say things in a way that nothing else can. But how does poetry do all these things? That\u2019s what this Project is about. In this Project, you will write a paper analyzing and interpreting poetry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Directions<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

For this Project, you will read three poems about fathers: \u201cMy Papa\u2019s Waltz,\u201d by Theodore Roethke; \u201cThose Winter Sundays,\u201d by Robert Hayden; and \u201cMy Father\u2019s Hats,\u201d by Mark Irwin. You will then write a paper that examines how these poems use mood, imagery and simile or metaphor.<\/span><\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>First, examine the Terms List to make sure you understand the concepts of mood, imagery, simile and metaphor. Also, read through the resources \u201cUsing Evidence From Texts,\u201d \u201cWriting About Poetry\u201d and \u201cCiting Poetry,\u201d which will be helpful when writing your paper. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Next, read each poem aloud several times. For the Roethke poem, you can listen to an audio file of the poet reading his poem. Circle any words that are unfamiliar to you or that strike you as particularly interesting. Look up any\u00a0unfamiliar words.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>In preparation for writing your paper, take time to analyze and interpret each poem, considering the following questions:<\/span><\/p>\n

o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>What is\u00a0the poem about?<\/span><\/p>\n

o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>What is\u00a0the mood of the poem? Does the mood of the poem change from the beginning to the end?<\/span><\/p>\n

o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>What impact do mood, imagery and simile\/metaphor have on you and the poem?<\/span><\/p>\n

o\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Does this poem appeal to you? Why or why not?<\/span><\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Once you have carefully considered your answers to each of the above questions,\u00a0use what you have learned from analyzing and interpreting these poems to write a 600-\u00a0to 750-word\u00a0paper. In your paper, provide at least one example of each of the following literary techniques: mood, imagery and simile\/metaphor. You may use examples from any of the poems.\u00a0Then, discuss how these literary techniques impact the meanings of the poems. What effect do these techniques have on the reader? Why do you think the author chose to use the wording he\u00a0did? \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Proofread your work to correct for errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation or mechanics before you submit your paper.<\/span><\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>You do not need to do research for this paper, but all sources, quotations and paraphrases from the texts must be cited using APA format.<\/span><\/p>\n
