what Alfred Lord Tennyson poems are middleclass & what notions of appropriate female behaviour are evident?
Q. In Tennyson's Mariana what are the notions of appropriate female behaviour within it and why was the woman depicted this way. Also, what 2 other Tennyson poems are of middle class females, what notions of appropriate behaviour are within it, how are the female characters represented and why were the women depicted this way.

A. Mariana is waiting, waiting, waiting for her man (whoever he is) to come and he doesnt seem to come. I suppose feminists would pour scorn on this - instead of hanging about waiting for her man why doesnt she go out and do something? But many women even today are obsessed with the idea of meeting the right man and their lives are more or less on hold until they do. There's a similar poem Mariana in the South which is even worse - the woman here waits and waits and it's obvious that what will end her waiting is not her lover turning up but death. Both of these poems - compare with the French Lieutenants woman. In the Lady of Shallot, the woman is imprisoned and lives under strict rules - no looking down to camelot. In order to survive she… [cont.]

What is the poem "Flower in the Crannied Wall" by Alfred Lord Tennyson about?
Q. I have read the poem but I am just not comprehending it. Please Help!
Asked by Nicole F - Wed Aug 27 22:52:57 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The tiniest thing in nature, one that one might find anywhere, is part of the whole of creation and in fact embodies everything universal and transcendent. If one could understand it--see how it worked, see how it was put together, respond fully to its inherent loveliness and the miracle of its creation--one would know oneself and also God because the smallest part of the whole is emblematic of the whole and reflects its complexity and greatness.

A. It is called "The Eagle:Fragment" He clasps the crag with crooked hands; Close to the sun in lonely lands, Ringed with the azure world, he stands. The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls; He watches from his mountain walls, And like a thunderbolt he falls. Tennyson is an extremely lyrical poet, please appreciate that. This poem is brief, but it contains much powerful imagery. the crags the sun the sea the mountain walls. Much is said, but few is written. The whole poem offers clues regarding location, just read. The poem is abrupt, it is a "Fragment", and you don't know the true fate of the eagle. Is he soaring away? Did he lose his ability to fly? Was he shot? Is he dead? What was he doing there? etc. are left unanswered by the poem, [cont.]

Q. In Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem 'The Eagle' what type of figurative language is being used when he says, "The wrinkled sea beneath him..." and, "Ringed with the azure of the world..."?
Asked by kk - Sun Oct 21 17:18:45 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The line "The wrinkled sea" could be considered "synaesthesia," where visual and tactile metaphors overlap. In other words, the word "wrinkled" invokes both the sense of sight and the sense of touch. To clarify what I mean by synaesthesia, another example could be found in the term "loud shirt." When we say someone has a loud shirt, we don't literally mean the shirt is being noisy, but that its patterns and/or colors are overly ostentatious. The metaphor of sound has crossed over in the the visual of the shirt's appearance. Moving on, when we look at the entire line, "The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls, we see the use of "personification," where an abstract concept or an inanimate object is given human-like qualities.

Elaine from Lancelot & Elaine by Alfred,Lord Tennyson What makes her special?
Q. Can anyone give me reasons on why Elaine is so special and why she deserves honor. If you can give me any kind of details it would help. I need help understanding her character and her love for Lancelot. I need help on figuring out why she was so special and what are the things that made her special.
Asked by Ms.Goon27 - Mon Jan 18 01:45:26 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Elaine is only special because she dies for love of Lancelot. Whether she deserves honour for this is dubious. She might just as well be thought to be an extraordinarily silly damsel. She is shown to be a young and somewhat naive girl who is totally entranced with Lancelot to the point that she cannot bear to live without him. Note that Lancelot did not consciously encourage her infatuation. The story first appears in the medieval French Mort d Artu , then in the English Stanzaic Morte Arthur . See . The damsel who falls in love with Lancelot and dies is unnamed in these versions. Sir Thomas Malory in his Le Morte d Artur first names the damsel as Elaine . See , chapters IX to XX. Tennyson adapts Malory with only a few changes. [cont.]

Asked by perishedmemories - Thu Oct 30 12:13:41 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Because the "Lord" is not his name, it's his title. So his name was Alfred Tennyson. Once he became a Lord, one way to write his name is Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The same applies to Byron. His full name, reflecting his title, was George Gordon, Lord Byron. Queen Elizabeth can be referred to, among other things, as Queen Elizabeth II, Lord of Mann. ETA: To answer your further question, people refer to both men in various ways. Tennyson is often called "Tennyson". Byron is often called "Lord Byron".

Alfred and two of his brothers were published poets in their teens. He came from an old family, reportedly descended from King Edward III, which may have influenced his historical writings. His family was originally well off (although his father, an eldest son, had been disinherited and therefore didn't receive the family estate).

A. Ulysses is the roman name to the greek character odysseus in the odyssey. This takes place a long time after he comes back home from his journey. He is an old man and he says how much he hates being king. He would much rather be out on another adventure. Then he says how his son is a better man for the position, and he wants to call his old crew to go sailing again before he dies.

A. I will give a basic expalanation and you can work out the details by considering the poem closley. Aurora, the Goddess of Dawn, whom Homer had described as "rosy fingered", fell in love with a series of mortals, one of whom was Tithonus, a handsome Trojan prince. She requested for him the gift of immortality fron the gods or from Zeus but forgot to ask that he be eternally youthful. After some years of rapturous love , such as a hitherto mortal man may be said to enjoy with an immortal (one Greek word for god means deathless) Tithonus aged and grew old, when Aurora left him alone, giving him the run of her divine palace.
