English 9B: Today we looked at four poems, annotated them, and then wrote a short response to the following:
The four poems presented to you - “O Me! O Life!”, “To the Virgins”, “The Summer Day”, and “Nothing Gold Can Stay” - were all written in different times, in different forms, by different poets… and yet, they share many common themes. Remember, a theme is a moral, lesson, or truth about life and how to live it that a text reveals. It cannot be a one-word idea; it is always presented as a complete thought.
Your task is to identify a common theme shared by these poems and write a one paragraph argument that supports your theme. You must cite textual evidence from at least two of the poems to prove your argument.
Finish this, if need be, and read for 20 minutes.
English 12B: Today we began an Canvas assignment about the hero, the monomyth, and the four stages of the hero.
