what are characteristics of George Gordon, Lord Byron poems?
610267
many of his works are satires. He was the leader of a style of writing known as romanticism and many of his works have an air of brooding. He was also known for his sexual exploits (don't know if that'll help you) and his rebelliousness. Of course I needn't have to tell you that his most famous work is a long poem called Don Juan.\n\nBut what does this have to do with government?

He has certainly written a lot of poems that are timeless - we still read them and study them.  His poems are much easier to understand and appreciate than the work of some other poets of his day.   I like the rhythm of his poetry and the strong feelings he often expresses.  In many of his poems he is remembering past times, a bit of nostalgia that we all like to do from time to time, though most of us cannot express it as beautifully as he could.  Some of  my favorites are The Solitary Reaper and I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud and Upon Westminster Bridge.

Yep.  Read more poems.  Frost, Burns, Shelley, others.  Your style may somewhat resemble one, maybe even Poe.  \n\nPoems have emotional content and feeling when they are most memorable, so don't overlook the opportunity when situations provoke similar feelings in you.\n\nYou need a greased track of words though, something that comes with exercise of your language talents.  You will need to become a buddy of dictionaries and thesauri.\n\nTry things like describing the current weather so well that any reader instantly sees what you are seeing.\n\nSimilar exercises are possible, your dog, an unusual friend.\n\nPoems pop out kind of magically sometimes if you are a person affording them such an opportunity.\n\nLook also at the words of songs and hymns.\n\nDo your own rewrites of some of these.  Wonderful new stanzas and poems have come that way.

Do you mean Lord Byron? His daughter's name is Ada. \n\nIn 1815, partly to escape an incestuous relationship with his married half-sister, Byron married the prim Annabella Milbanke Noel (1792-1860), whom he'd known primarily through letters. After giving birth to a daughter, the remarkable Augusta Ada who in collaboration with Charles Babbage became the first person ever to write a computer program. Ada was Byron's only legitimate child; Annabella left Byron before Ada was born. Her departure was bitter, and amid more controversy Byron fled England once again.\n\n\nHe also had a daughter named Allegra with Claire Clairmont\n\nAllegra died in early childhood\n\nI hope this helps =-)

first you must look at the writer, a Mistress, living at a villa with both her lover Percy Shelley, the infamous Lord Byron( shunned by his country to this place) and the visiting Dr. palladoris, former priest and blood drinking homosexual and where Stoker gleaned some of his info for his story. All outcast with a visionary feeling of the coming century. All of the authors where known drug users, believed in sexual freedom and equality and believed that through the story's and poems they composed, their ideas and they could live forever.Thus causing embarrassment and shame to the establishment.

The Elements of Poetry\n\n1. Rhythm: The metrical flow of sound determined by the placement of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line.\n\nShe stroked molten tones\n\nFrom the heart-carved maple dulcimer.\n\nQuestions: Does there seem to be a regulated metrical pattern to the poem? If so, what? Does each line generally seem to have the same number of stressed syllables? If so, how many? Are some lines longer than others? Why? Are some lines shorter? Why?\n\nExamples: In "Yonosa House," (the poem at the end of this document) the lines generally have three or four stresses, although there is no strict metrical pattern. The shortest line is line three: "My grandma did." The shortness emphasizes the subject (the grandmother) and her action (the verb "to do"). Through her loving actions, the grandmother epitomizes the spirituality and customs of her people.\n\n2. Rhyme: When the final vowel and consonant sounds of words are the same (i.e., mouse/house, low/toe).\n\nQuestions: Is there a rhyme scheme to the poem? If so, what is it? Is there any incidental rhyme in the poem? Which lines? When you say the rhyming words together, what mood, feeling, idea, sense, etc., do they evoke? Is there any internal rhyme? Off -rhyme? List the line numbers and jot down the feelings, etc., the words evoke.\n\nExamples: There is no rhyme scheme in "Yonosa House," but there is off-rhyme at lines 17-19, which are in italics, indicating they are the words/song of the grandmother. These off-rhyming words - rock/bark/hawk - are all words for nature. They indicate that the wisdom/the myths of the race come from an attunement with nature. In line 24 there is internal rhyme: wore/lore. These words .imply that the grandmother "wore" the wisdom of the tribe in her very being, that wisdom was intrinsic in her.\n\n3. Words.\n\nQuestions: Look up and define any words you don't know. And if there are significant words that seem to have more than one denotation and/or connotation, look up the etymologies (the roots of those words).\n\nExamples: Line 13, lanyards = A short rope of gasket for seizing a ladder or the like or to secure rigging; a cord worn around the neck for carrying a knife, keys, or a whistle. From OF word for thong, strap; perhaps laz, lace + naele, string.\n\n4. Repetitions.\n\nQuestions: Are any significant words repeated in the poem? Which ones? Why? That is, what are the repetitions emphasizing?\n\nExamples: The words heart, maple, and hands are repeated in the poem. They emphasize the activities of the grandmother, who is often portrayed doing things, activities from the heart. Love in action, those hands, those activities, her big heart are what the poet remembers most.\n\n5. Alliteration: When two or more words have the same initial sounds (i.e., Becky bopped the baker).\n\nQuestions: What lines contain alliteration? List each line. Write out the words that alliterate. When you say the alliterating words together what feeling, mood, idea, sense, etc., do they evoke?\n\nExamples: Line 6 - sat/sack. The words emphasize her age. Her body no longer has a definable shape. It is like a sack. I can see her hunched over, everything sort of falling into itself.\n\n6. Assonance: Partial rhyme, when the internal vowel sounds of words are the same (i.e., cow/bound/mouse).\n\nQuestions: What lines contain assonance? List each line. Write out the words that assonate. When you say the assonating words together what feeling, mood, idea, sense, etc., do they evoke?\n\nExamples: Line I - stroked/molten/tones. Rich "o" sounds. Depth. Roundness. A resonance. Top capture the tones of the dulcimer. Also the assonance emphasizes the synesthesia of the line. (Synesthesia = the mixing of the senses.. One type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another. A color sings. A song has color.) We can "see" and "feel" the tones, which are like the colors and heat of metal in a forge,

1.List the character traits you associate with your character. search the text for specific references that support the traits you have listed. His is proud proof below…..\n\nMr. Darcy is described as being “fine, tall, person, handsome features, noble man” (pg12)\n\nHowever ,his character is labeled as being “the proudest, most disagreeable man in the world, and every body hoped that he would never come there again.” (pg13)\n\nDuring a “Assembly” he refuses to dance with anyone unless they are in his company i.e. people who are in his social class. When his friend Bingley tells him to dance that there are a lot of girls to dance with he says “Your sisters are engaged , and there is not another woman in the room, whom it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with” (pg 13)\n\nLook on page 185……He proposes to her but she is shocked b/c he is the reason why her sister has a broken heart. See his b-friend Bingley is LOVE with Jane. But he tells his friend that she is not a good choice b/c she is not in the same class as they are. SO b/c Darcy does not like the girl he leaves back to London. So this is why she does not like him. But then he says to her “ In vain I struggled. It will not due. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to te tell you how ardently I admire and love you.” (pg185) and then he goes on to say “ her inferiority- of its degradation- of the family obstacles which judgment had always opposed to inclination.”(pg185){ he basically tells her that even though she is beneath him and his family would laugh at their union and she would be looked down upon, that he loves her still, but really even though he does love her he has no respect for her} so Elizabeth is shocked and she tells him “ in such cases as this, it is, I believe , the established mode to express a sense of obligation for the sentiments avowed, however unequally they may be returned……..I have never desired you good opinion, and you have certainly bestowed it most unwillingly.” (pg 186) So she says not only NO but HELL NO. Darcy does not take this good see a man of his wealth never hears no, and to be put down by a person he finds beneath him is even more upsetting to him.  So he says, “And this is all the reply which I am to have the honour of expecting.” (pg186) then Elizabeth goes on to tell him that she hates him b/c of what he did to her sister.  \n\nREAD pages 185-189 ( this will give you a good look into his character) \n\n\n\n2.Did your character or your perception of your character chage from the beginning of the book to the end of the book? or did your first assessment of the character remain static? Our opinion of Darcy does change but not until the end of the book……see his love of Elizabeth changes him and makes him love her inspite of her family and the difference in their social classes. Read page 305-308\n\n3.if you were a director, what type of actor would you choose to play this role? what would be the most important aspects of this character to capture on the stage?\nIf were a Director I would choose Clive Owen, he has the tall dark haired features, he can be very proud looking but can be very passionate.  He would have to be attractive, tall and a bit prideful with a lot of class.  \n\n\nIf you need any more help let me know.

"If" by Rudyard Kipling! Superb! \nA great poem to take you through the bad times, and make you learn more in good times!\n\n----\n\nIf you can keep your head when all about you \nAre losing theirs and blaming it on you; \nIf you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, \nBut make allowance for their doubting too; \nIf you can wait and not be tired by waiting, \nOr, being lied about, don't deal in lies, \nOr, being hated, don't give way to hating, \nAnd yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; \n\nIf you can dream - and not make dreams your master; \nIf you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; \nIf you can meet with triumph and disaster \nAnd treat those two imposters just the same; \nIf you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken \nTwisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, \nOr watch the things you gave your life to broken, \nAnd stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools; \n\nIf you can make one heap of all your winnings \nAnd risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, \nAnd lose, and start again at your beginnings \nAnd never breath a word about your loss; \nIf you can force your heart and nerve and sinew \nTo serve your turn long after they are gone, \nAnd so hold on when there is nothing in you \nExcept the Will which says to them: "Hold on"; \n\nIf you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, \nOr walk with kings - nor lose the common touch; \nIf neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; \nIf all men count with you, but none too much; \nIf you can fill the unforgiving minute \nWith sixty seconds' worth of distance run - \nYours is the Earth and everything that's in it, \nAnd - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

Do your own homework...\n\nbut direct characterization is where the author comes out right and says characteristics.  So look for descriptions and introductions of characters in the book.
