قصيدة الأعمى >>افهموها عاد



And post o’er land and ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.”
http://rpo.library.utoronto.ca/poem/1457.html
This poem is a classic. For decades it has thrilled readers and been the discussion of many literary and academic conversations. It is a popular favorite with high school English teachers across America. Many read the poem to pick out the meaning; some think that the poem is a discussion about his blindness; others feel that the poem speaks of religious duty; still others argue that the poem is about the importance of time. In fact, I think that all of these arguments are partly correct, but more importantly, I feel that the composing of this poem was Milton’s effort to comfort himself.

“When I Consider How My Light Is Spent,” is Milton’s first and only poem that appears to be about his blindness. At the time of this poem’s composition, Milton was blind. His daughter who took dictations for him held the pen that inked Milton into literary immortality. A brief study of Milton’s life, however, will show that all of his life, he was an active, independent, advocate of rights in religion and an amazingly tenacious seeker of government reform. Though most of his endeavors in the political and religious arena’s failed, (he was a Protestant), he stuck to his guns… even when it was arguably unwise to do so. Understandably, a blind Milton would feel some angst at having lost his sight.
There are many who believe that the “light” in Milton’s poem is time. If that is so, then let’s assume that “that one talent which is death to hide,” was his poetry . I have raised this sugesstion because after reading biographies on Milton and seeing how active he was and how he used his writing skills to try to affect change in his world it seemed the most obvious, “talent” that stood in danger of being hidden; unless, of course, the “talent” is Milton’s eyes, which are indeed, “Lodged within [him] useless.” Here I must make a choice, is the talent Milton’s poetry or his sight? Here is my case: Milton used his eyes in the days of his youth to observe injustices, and then used his hands and pen to attempt to right them. I am convinced however, that the “talent” he is “hiding” is eyesight, given to him by a “Maker.” Why am I convinced? Naturally, the following lines prove my point:
“And that one talent which is death to hide//Lodg’d with me useless, though my soul more bent//To serve therewith my Maker, and present//My true account.”
These lines tell me beyond a shadow of a doubt that Milton is eager to “right wrongs” again. He wants to change his world. He wants to try to change something, but he can’t. His sight lies lodged within him useless, though he longs to serve his Master with it, and give his true account of the injustices and corruption around him. I know that the talent is not poetry because Milton can still dictate. He can indeed write through his daughter. Yes, many may argue that he cannot pick up a pen and write whenever he pleases, being blind, but his hands are not lodged within him useless; his eyes are.
Here again we return to the issue of “light.” What is it? It is time. Milton clears up any doubts with his query, “Does God exact day labor, light denied?” Assuming that the talent helps Milton do “day labor”, we can easily see that light is time. “Day labor” then is observing injustices and corruption in high places, and doing something about it. It is true that Milton could hear of the injustice going on around him, but I feel he yearned to see for himself and interpret for himself what was right or wrong. He wanted to be able to give his, “True account,” to God when his time came and hear a deserving, “Well done.” Now, he feels useless.
“God doth not need
Either man’s work or his own gifts: who best
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state
Is kingly; thousands at his bidding speed
And post o’er land and ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.”
These words, uttered from the mouth of “Patience,” comfort Milton. They tell him that he is not worthless in the kingdom of God on Earth. “They also serve who only stand and wait.” I believe that Milton places himself in the category that “only stand and wait.” His later years are less active by far than his early years. Once he could view corruption and openly write against it. Now he can only hear of it, and then hope that the account is not skewed by biases and personal opinion, or public opinion. The greatest comfort to this poet lies in the last line. He is not a careless steward. He is an attentive servant, waiting to be called upon once again.

Introduction: The Mock-Epic
.
At the beginning of "The Rape of the Lock," Pope identifies the work as a “heroi-comical poem.” Today, the poem–and others like it–is referred to as a mock-epic and sometimes as a mock-heroic. Such a work parodies the serious, elevated style of the classical epic poem–such as The Iliad or The Odyssey, by Homer–to poke fun at human follies. Thus, a mock-epic is a type of satire; it treats petty humans or insignificant occurrences as if they were extraordinary or heroic, like the great heroes and events of Homer's two great epics. In writing "The Rape of the Lock," Pope imitated the characteristics of Homer's epics, as well as later epics such as The Aeneid (Vergil), The Divine Comedy (Dante), and Paradise Lost (Milton). Many of these characteristics are listed below, under "Epic Conventions."
..
Setting
.
The action takes place in London and its environs in the early 1700's on a single day. The story begins at noon (Canto I) at the London residence of Belinda as she carefully prepares herself for a gala social gathering. The scene then shifts (Canto II) to a boat carrying Belinda up the Thames. To onlookers she is as magnificent as Queen Cleopatra was when she traveled in her barge. The rest of the story (Cantos III-V) takes place where Belinda debarks–Hampton Court Palace, a former residence of King Henry VIII on the outskirts of London–except for a brief scene in Canto IV that takes place in the cave of the Queen of Spleen.
.
Characters
.
Belinda Beautiful young lady with wondrous hair, two locks of which hang gracefully in curls.
The Baron Young admirer of Belinda who plots to cut off one of her locks.
Ariel Belinda's guardian sylph (supernatural creature).
Clarissa Young lady who gives the Baron scissors.
Umbriel Sprite who enters the cave of the Queen of Spleen to seek help for Belinda.
Queen of Spleen Underworld goddess who gives Umbriel gifts for Belinda.
Thalestris Friend of Belinda. Thalestris urges Sir Plume to defend Belinda's honor.
Sir Plume Beau of Thalestris. He scolds the Baron.
Sylphs, Fairies, Genies, Demons, Phantoms and Other Supernatural Creatures
Source: A Real-Life Incident
.
Pope based The Rape of the Lock on an actual incident in which a British nobleman, Lord Petre, cut off a lock of hair dangling tantalizingly from the head of the beautiful Arabella Fermor. Petre’s daring theft of the lock set off a battle royal between the Petre and Fermor families. John Caryll–a friend of Pope and of the warring families–persuaded the great writer to pen a literary work satirizing the absurdity and silliness of the dispute. The result was one of the greatest satirical poems in all of literature. In writing the poem, Pope also drew upon ancient classical sources–notably Homer’s great epics, The Iliad and The Odyssey–as models to imitate in style and tone. He also consulted the ****************s of medieval and Renaissance epics.
Plot Summary
By Michael J. Cummings...© 2005
.
.......Pope opens with a statement announcing the topic of his poem: A gentleman–a lord, in fact–has committed a terrible outrage against a gentlewoman, causing her to reject him. What was this offense? Why did it incite such anger in the lady?
.......The woman in question is named Belinda. She is sleeping late one day in her London home when a sylph–a dainty spirit that inhabits the air–warns her that “I saw, alas! some dread Event impend.” The sylph, named Ariel, does not know what this event is or where or how it will manifest itself. But he does tell Belinda to be on guard against the machinations of men.

.......Belinda rises and prepares herself for a social gathering, sitting before a mirror and prettying herself with “puffs and powders” and scenting herself with “all Arabia.” Afterward, she travels up the Thames River to the site of the social festivities, Hampton Court, the great palace on the north bank of the river that in earlier times was home to King Henry VIII. As she sits in the boat, “Fair Nymphs, and well-drest Youths around her shone, / But ev'ry Eye was fix'd on her alone.” In other words, she was beautiful beyond measure. She smiled at everyone equally, and her eyes–bright suns–radiated goodwill. Especially endearing to anyone who looked upon her were her wondrous tresses:
This Nymph, to the Destruction of Mankind,
Nourish'd two Locks which graceful hung behind
In equal Curls, and well conspir'd to deck
With shining Ringlets the smooth Iv'ry Neck.
.......Among Belinda’s admirers is a young baron at Hampton Court awaiting her arrival. He has resolved to snip off a lock of her hair as the trophy of trophies. Before dawn, before even the sun god Phoebus Apollo arose, the Baron had been planning the theft of a lock of Belinda's hair. To win the favor of the gods, he had lighted an altar fire and, lying face down before it, prayed for success.
.......After Belinda arrives at Hampton Court with her company of friends, the partygoers play Ombre, a popular card game in which only 40 of the 52 cards are dealt--the eights, nines, and tens are held back. It appears that the Baron will win the game after his knave of diamonds captures her queen of hearts. However, Belinda yet has hope, even after the Baron plays an ace of hearts:
...........................................The King unseen
Lurk'd in her Hand, and mourn'd his captive Queen.
He springs to Vengeance with an eager Pace,
And falls like Thunder on the prostrate Ace
The Nymph exulting fills with Shouts the Sky;
The Walls, the Woods, and long Canals reply.
.......Belinda wins! Coffee is served, the vapors of which go to the Baron’s brain and embolden him to carry out his assault on Belinda’s hair. Clarissa, a lady who fancies the Baron, withdraws scissors from a case and arms him with the weapon. When he closes in behind Belinda, she bends over her coffee, exposing a magnificent lock. But a thousand sprites come to her aid, using their wings to blow hair over the lock. They also tug at one of her diamond earrings to alert her to the danger. Three times they warn her and three times she looks around. But all is for naught. The Baron opens wide his weapon, closes it around the lock, and cuts. The rape of her lock enrages Belinda:
Then flash'd the living Lightnings from her Eyes,
And Screams of Horror rend th' affrighted Skies.
Not louder Shrieks to pitying Heav'n are cast,
When Husbands, or when Lapdogs breathe their last,
Or when rich China Vessels, fal'n from high,
In glitt'ring Dust and painted Fragments lie!
.......A gnome named Umbriel descends to the Underworld on Belinda’s behalf and obtains a bag of sighs and a vial of tears from the Queen of Spleen. With these magical gifts, he means to comfort poor Belinda. First, he empties the bag on her. A gentleman named Sir Plume--prompted by his belle, Thalestris, a friend of Belinda--then roundly scolds the Baron for his grave offense. But the Baron is unrepentant. Umbriel then empties the vial on Belinda. Grief overcomes her as her eyes half-drown in tears and her head droops upon her bosom. She says:
For ever curs'd be this detested Day,
Which snatch'd my best, my fav'rite Curl away!
Happy! ah ten times happy had I been,
If Hampton-Court these Eyes had never seen!
.......Clarissa tries to mollify Belinda in a long speech, but fails. A bit of a melee ensues when Belinda attempts to retrieve her lost lock. “Fans clap, Silks russle, and tough Whalebones *****.” Belinda proves a fierce combatant. She attacks the Baron “with more than usual Lightning in her Eyes” and throws a handful of snuff from Sir Plume's box up his nose. But, alas, when the battle ends, the lock is nowhere to be found.
.......However, the poem ends on a happy note for Belinda, Pope says, because the trimmed lock of her golden hair has risen to the heavens, there to become a shining star.
.
.
Theme
The central theme of The Rape of the Lock is the fuss that high society makes over trifling matters, such as breaches of decorum. In the poem, a feud of epic proportions erupts after the Baron steals a lock of Belinda’s hair. In the real-life incident on which Pope based his poem, the Petre and the Fermor families had a falling-out after Lord Petre snipped off one of Arabella Fermor’s locks. Other themes that Pope develops in the poem include human vanity and the importance of being able to laugh at life’s little reversals. The latter motif is a kind of “moral to the story.” Clarissa touches upon both of these themes when addressing tearful Belinda, shorn of her lock:
But since, alas! frail Beauty must decay,
Curl'd or uncurl'd, since Locks will turn to grey;
Since painted, or not painted, all shall fade,
And she who scorns a Man, must die a Maid,
What then remains but well our Pow'r to use,
And keep good Humour still whate'er we lose?

Climax
.
The climax of The Rape of the Lock occurs when the Baron snips away one of Belinda's locks.
.

Epic Conventions
Because a mock-epic parodies a classical epic, it uses the same conventions, or formulas, as the classical epic--but usually in a humorous way. For example, a convention of many classical epics is a sea voyage in which perils confront the hero at every turn. In The Rape of the Lock, the sea voyage is Belinda's boat trip up the Thames River. Her guardian sylph, Ariel, sees "black omens" that foretell disasters for Belinda even though the waves flow smoothly and the winds blow gently. Will she stain her dress? Lose her honor or her necklace? Miss a masquerade? Forget her prayers? So frightful are the omens that Ariel summons 50 of his companion spirits to guard Belinda's petticoat, as well as the ringlets of her hair. Following are examples of the epic conventions that Pope parodies:
• Invocation of the Muse: In ancient Greece and Rome, poets had always requested “the muse” to fire them with creative genius when they began long narrative poems, or epics, about godlike heroes and villains. In Greek mythology, there were nine muses, all sisters, who were believed to inspire poets, historians, flutists, dancers, singers, astronomers, philosophers, and other thinkers and artists. If one wanted to write a great poem, play a musical instrument with bravado, or develop a grand scientific or philosophical theory, he would ask for help from a muse. When a writer asked for help, he was said to be “invoking the muse.” The muse of epic poetry was named Calliope [kuh LY uh pe]. In "The Rape of the Lock," Pope does not invoke a goddess; instead, he invokes his friend, John Caryll (spelled CARYL in the poem), who had asked Pope to write a literary work focusing on an event (the snipping of a lock of hair) that turned the members of two families--the Petres and the Fermors--into bitter enemies. Caryll thought that poking fun at the incident would reconcile the families by showing them how trivial the incident was.
Division of the Poem Into Books or Cantos: The traditional epic is long, requiring several days several days of reading. Dante's Divine Comedy, for example, contains 34 cantos. When printed, the work consists of a book about two inches thick . Pope, of course, presents only five cantos containing a total of fewer than 600 lines. Such miniaturizing helps Pope demonstrate the smallness or pettiness of the behavior exhibited by the main characters in the poem.
• De************************ions of Soldiers Preparing for Battle: In The Iliad, Homer describes in considerable detail the armor and weaponry of the great Achilles, as well as the battlefield trappings of other heroes. In The Rape of the Lock, Pope describes Belinda preparing herself with combs and pins–with "Puffs, Powders, *****es"–noting that "Now awful Beauty puts on all its Arms."
• De************************ions of Heroic Deeds: While Homer describes the exploits of his heroes during the Trojan War, Pope describes the "exploits" of Belinda and the Baron during a card game called Ombre, which involves three players and a deck of 40 cards.
• Account of a Great Sea Voyage: In The Odyssey, Odysseus (also known as Ulysses) travels the seas between Troy and Greece, encountering many perils. In The Aeneid, Aeneas travels the seas between Troy and Rome, also encountering perils. In The Rape of the Lock, Belinda travels up the Thames in a boat.
• Participation of Deities or Spirits in the Action: In The Rape of the Lock--as in The Iliad, The Odyssey, The Aeneid, The Divine Comedy, and Paradise Lost--supernatural beings take part in the action.
• Presentation of Scenes in the Underworld: Like supernatural beings in classical epics, the gnome Umbriel visits the Underworld in The Rape of the Lock.

Publication Information
Pope published three versions of The Rape of the Lock. The first was a two-canto version published in 1712. The second, published in 1714, was a five-canto version that added references to sylphs and other supernatural creatures. The final version, published in 1717 in a volume of Pope's poetry, added Clarissa's speech in Canto V.

Verse Format
.
Pope wrote The Rape of the Lock in heroic couplets. A heroic couplet is a unit of two rhyming lines in iambic pentameter. A line of verse in iambic pentameter consists of 10 syllables. The first syllable is unaccented, the second accented, the third unaccented, the fourth accented, and so on. The entire poem consists of one heroic couplet followed by another, as demonstrated by the first four lines of the poem:
What dire offence from am'rous causes springs,
What mighty contests rise from trivial things,.......................[First Couplet: springs and things rhyme]
I sing–This verse to CARYL, Muse! is due:
This, ev'n Belinda may vouchsafe to view............................[Second Couplet: due and view rhyme]
Each of the lines has 10 syllables in a succession of accented and unaccented pairs (iambic pentameter), as follows:
What dire offence from am'rous causes springs,
What mighty contests rise from trivial things,
I sing–This verse to CARYL, Muse! is due:
This, ev'n Belinda may vouchsafe to view
You may have noticed that Pope turned amorous into two syllables by eliminating the o and attempted to turn even into a single syllable by eliminating the second e. Poetic license permits poets to make such adjustments to achieve their ends.
.
Figures of Speech
.
The main figure of speech in The Rape of the Lock is hyperbole. Pope uses it throughout the poem to exaggerate the ordinary and the commonplace, making them extraordinary and spectacular. In so doing, paradoxically, he makes them seem as they really are, small and petty. Examples of hyperbole include the following:
Sol through white Curtains shot a tim'rous Ray,
And ope'd those Eyes that must eclipse the Day.
...Hyberbole: Belinda's eyes are so bright that they outshine a ray of sunlight
This Nymph, to the Destruction of Mankind,
Nourish'd two Locks which graceful hung behind
...Hyperbole: Belinda is so beautiful--and her wondrous locks so inviting--that she can bring mankind to ruin with desire.
Examples of Other Figures of Speech in the Poem
Personification
Love in these Labyrinths his Slaves detains
Anaphora
He saw, he wish'd, and to the Prize aspir'd
Alliteration
Where Wigs with Wigs, with Sword-knots Sword-knots strive,
Beaux banish Beaux, and Coaches Coaches drive.
Questions and Writing Topics
• Is there a serious message about the world, about human conduct, behind Pope's mischievous mockery?
• Pope uses many allusions to Greek and Roman mythology. Why did so many writers of his time--and why do so many writers today--allude to mythology to make comparisons or describe situations and characters?
• Write a short poem that uses heroic couplets and allusions.
• Write an essay explaining the role of nature imagery (including references to the sun, the sky, the moon, lakes, rivers, grass, flowers, parks, and meadows) in the poem.

Notes
1] First published anonymously in Lintot's Miscellany in May 1712, but revised, expanded, and published separately under Pope's name on March 2, 1714. To this edition Pope added the following dedicatory letter:
To Mrs. Arabella Fermor
Madam,
It will be in vain to deny that I have some regard for this piece, since I dedicate it to You. Yet you may bear me witness, it was intended only to divert a few young Ladies, who have good sense and good humour enough to laugh not only at their sex's little unguarded follies, but at their own. But as it was communicated with the air of a secret, it soon found its way into the world. An imperfect copy having been offered to a Bookseller, you had the good nature for my sake to consent to the publication of one more correct: This I was forced to, before I had executed half my design, for the Machinery was entirely wanting to complete it.
The Machinery, Madam, is a term invented by the Critics, to signify that part which the Deities, Angels, or Dæmons are made to act in a poem: For the ancient poets are in one respect like many modern ladies: let an action be never so trivial in itself, they always make it appear of the utmost importance. These Machines I determined to raise on a very new and odd foundation, the Rosicrucian doctrine of Spirits.
I know how disagreeable it is to make use of hard words before a lady; but 'tis so much the concern of a poet to have his works understood and particularly by your sex, that you must give me leave to explain two or three difficult terms.
The Rosicrucians are a people I must bring you acquainted with. The best account I know of them is in a French book called Le Comte de Gabalis, which both in its title and size is so like a novel, that many of the fair sex have read it for one by mistake. According to these gentlemen, the four elements are inhabited by spirits, which they call Sylphs, Gnomes, Nymphs, and Salamanders. The Gnomes or Dæmons of Earth delight in mischief; but the Sylphs, whose habitation is in the air, are the best-conditioned creatures imaginable. For they say, any mortals may enjoy the most intimate familiarities with these gentle spirits, upon a condition very easy to all true adepts, an inviolate preservation of Chastity.
As to the following Cantos, all the passages of them are as fabulous as the Vision at the beginning or the Transformation at the end; (except the loss of your Hair, which I always mention with reverence). The human persons are as fictitious as the airy ones, and the character of Belinda, as it is now managed, resembles you in nothing but in Beauty.
If this poem had as many graces as there are in your person, or in your mind, yet I could never hope it should pass through the world half so uncensured as you have done. But let its fortune be what it will, mine is happy enough, to have given me this occasion of assuring you that I am, with the truest esteem,
Madam,
Your most obedient, Humble Servant,
A. Pope

The Rape of the Lock was written at the request of John Caryl, a Catholic man of letters and Pope's lifelong friend and correspondent. In the year 1711, Robert, Lord Petre (the Baron of the poem), a relative of Caryl's, caused a serious quarrel by the theft of a lock of Miss Arabella Fermor's hair (Pope's Belinda). Caryl requested a jesting poem to laugh the families out of their anger, and Pope obliged with the 1712 two-canto version of The Rape of the Lock, which had only 334 lines. The version of 1714 exploited far more fully the idea of a "heroi-comical" poem. This involved the addition of the "celestial machinery," of Rosicrucian spirits--the sylphs. Other epic or "heroic" analogues added in 1714 included Belinda's toilet (the arming for battle), the card game of ombre (epic games), and the Cave of Spleen (descent to the underworld).
The present version contains one other addition made in 1717, Clarissa's speech in Canto V, which Pope said (with some irony) opened "more clearly the moral of the poem." The importance of The Rape of the Lock and its proper comprehension by its audience was underlined by a prose publication called the Key to the Lock. In this work, Pope, writing under the pseudonym of Esdras Barnevelt, carries on a comic attack on the poem, pointing out some of the religious overtones, such as the sylphs as guardian angels, Belinda's toilet as a parody of the Mass. Nolueram, Belinda .... I didn't wish to violate your locks, Belinda, but I'm happy to have granted this to your prayers (Martial, Epigrams, XII, 84).
17] Thrice rung ... the ground. Belinda's summons to her maid employs the triple repetition common in epic poetry.
18] press'd watch: a watch which sounded the immediately preceding hour or quarter hour when it was pressed. These watches enabled one to tell time when it was too dark to see.
21 ff.] The gods often communicate with the epic hero through dreams (e.g., Aeneid, III, 147 ff.).
23] birth-night beau: dressed in the splendid apparel used for a royal birthday celebration.
27-28] Epic heroes are always under the protection or guardianship of higher powers.
32] silver token: coin left by the fairies in the shoes of grass covered with "fairy-ring," circles of dark, coarse grass, supposed to mark the place where the fairies have been dancing.
44] box: theatre box.
Ring: the circular driveway in Hyde Park frequented by ladies of fashion.
46] chair: sedan chair.
50] vehicles: bodies (Pope intends a pun linking vehicles with equipage and chair).
55] chariots: an eighteenth-century four-wheeled carriage but used in this con**************** because of its epic appropriateness to the heroic action.
56] ombre: see below, III, 27 ff.
57-66] For when.... Air. This passage refers to the theory of personality which relates the basic kinds of temperament to the predominance of one or another of the four elements (air, fire, water, earth). Although the theory at times has been more generally held, it formed part of the Rosicrucian speculations from which Pope borrows his machinery.
61-62] away ... tea: a perfect rhyme in Pope's day (pronounced {_e}i).
70] Assume ... please: cf. the angels in Paradise Lost.
79] nymphs: here used in the sense of maidens. Cf. dedicatory letter and line 62 where it refers to one of the four orders of Rosicrucian spirits.
105] who thy protection claim: i.e., claim the right to protect thee.
106] Ariel: "a word from the Vulgate ... rendered altar" (OED). The name is used in the Old Testament as a man's name and also occurs in Isaiah 29: 1-9, where it means "lion of God" and is applied to Jerusalem. Milton used the name for a rebel angel and Shakespeare for his benign aery spirit in The Tempest. In magical literature, the name is used for a spirit that controls the elements or planets.
108] In the clear mirror: "[Pope] The language of the Platonists, the writers of the intelligible world of spirits, etc."
112] pious: dutiful, godly.
115] Shock. The shock or shough was a special kind of lap-dog, hairy, curled, and rough all over. (Pope puns on the usual meaning of the word.)
119] Wounds ... ardors: i.e., the exaggerated expression of the billet-doux.
121 ff.] In the Key to the Lock (see introduction above), Pope calls attention to the parallel between these sacred rites of pride and the Mass. Belinda is the priestess; the maid, the inferior priestess or acolyte. Pope also has in mind the hero arming for battle.
148] Betty: a generic name for a lady's maid.

john Milton
When I consider how my light is spent
We are going to start with john Milton. He is from the 17th century who we cannot ignore it at all when we study the seventeenth century. He has a great place because his apices.
We know that in the early of seventeenth century is full of events. We have studied and always repeat the same with every poet. The political, religious conflicts and the social as a result and the intellectual environment all of these elements have formed a different kind of literature.
John Milton was born in the early of the seventeenth century and he died at the restoration of the king. He was influenced by the conflict and the civil war and the coming of Cromwell.
Everyone has different react. He was on the side of the parliament and when Cromwell came he celebrated his family but at the same time he so cruel in his irony in criticizing what he doesn’t like. He didn’t influence by the ****************physical poets because he has his own style. He in fact was influenced more by the sixteenth century great figures like Spencer and Shakespeare.
He was influenced by the classics more than the ****************physical.
We can divide his life into three stages his personal life and his literary career:
The first stage: when he was young and he concentrates in his education. He was font of reading he read the classics he learned and mastered the Latin language and the Greek language he was ready to exposed to the original **************** he learned more European languages .
This means that he enriched his knowledge. He had a lot of things in this stage of his life.
He even learned Hebrew why?? He is Christian and learned the Hebrew
Because the Old Testament is written in Hebrew and the new is in Latin. He went to the sources .to get his own knowledge.
The second stage: he devoted his time to criticize and to deal with poets. He wrote many social maters. He cosintrait on writing (bathless) –essays-. He wrote some poem but his famous in this stage of his life in writing prose commenting on his political issue and the social problems.
The last stage: The last 14 years of his life he went blind .he was a religious man, he might face doubt as any human being but in fact he wrote the most memorable ethics in English literature. He wrote two epics and along important poem.
She will not ask us to write the biography of john.
Make use of what you have learned. When you discus a poem you can just hint that this poem discuses this stage of his life. This poem or this theme shows us or reflect you use this because after all, the poet is the man and the man is the poet
If h put himself in a place of another, some of his personality will appear. Even Andrew Marvell in his poem the dialogue he was so clever to step asay
And to convince us that this soul which speaking or the body which is speaking but at the end he sees all opinion although it is hidden but it still there.
John Milton has his own style. It doesn’t means that his images are so easy. It doesn’t mean that he a product of seventeenth century and somehow he should belong to sixteenth century.
But as we said he has his own style which somehow more related to invented kind of poetry which was popular in sixteenth century.
He was puritan and he was imprisoned because his opinions, also was imprisoned at the time of Cromwell even he was supporting him because his own idea and opinion.

The poem:
When I consider how my light is spent,
Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide,
And that one talent which is death to hide
Lodged with my useless, though my soul more bent
To serve therewith my Marker, and present 5
My true account, lest he returning chide;
“Doth God exact day-labor, light denied?”
I fondly ask; but patience to prevent
That murmur , soon replies , “God doth not need
Either mans work or his own gifts ; who best 10
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best.his state
Is kingly.thousands at his biddig speed
And post o er land and ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.

This is some of his beautiful sonnet; we said before that the sonnets during the seventeenth century were not as popular as the sixteenth century. At the sixteenth century, the sonnets were the most important form. Still they wrote at the seventeen c they wrote sonnets but it was religious .we feel that the language is the language of the sixteenth C poets. Not the language of Milton. This is the first impression.
The first thing you will see when you read the poem is the form .when we read it the first time we can see that we have a very long sentences and the meaning is not completed until the line number 11. Until the word (BEST). We don’t have divisions or sestet or octave. This is the first look.
The poem is started with a clause (when I consider…..) he is trying to look back to his life to see to make an evaluation
((WHEN I CONSIDER MY LIGHT IS SPENT)
Light means his life, his talent, we have light and darkness, and it means his days. Because his blindness all his days are nights, so when he was able to see and active, when I consider how my past life spent when I was still have my sight.
Ere half my days,
Now he is in the middle of his age, he became blind. So when I remember what I have done how my life is spent. How my days, years, age was spent before that time.
In this dark world and wide
He describe the world as dark because his blindness and because of the events the civil war and all these conflicts. He is trying to evaluate. The world also is wide. He is pessimistic.
And that one talent which is death to hide….
Talent means his talent as a poet, a writer, as a literary figure.
This word is the key word of the whole poem. He said that when I consider how my talent which I have will be hidden in death. When he becomes blind he lost his talent. He cannot produce more but he is still wishing to serve his maker –
God his maker- he now is disabling to write to serve God. We said that he is a puritan and he in fact started to write religious poetry when he was still 21 years old. This word alods to the bible to the New Testament. It refers to story in the bible and it has a deep meaning. The story is a narration about a king who had many servants to serve him. This king has three servants and he wants to travel for a long time and he wants to let the three servants take care of his money. He gives the first servant five coins-money- the second gave him two coins and the third servant gave him one coins. He travels for many years the first servant, he work and gain more five coins. The second servant also works and gains another two coins. The third one didn’t do anything with the coins and he hides it until his master came back. After many years the master came back and he wants to return his money. The king became happy from the two servants who investigated and work to his money but he was mad from the third one. The theme of the story is that God give us a talent. Each one of us had a talent.
What did you do with your ayes, your health, the money I gave you, with the chanses that I gave you. Every one of the servant did his best. This is the theme. He is settling alone and said to himself what did I do in my life before. Now my talent is lost but I want to serve God. I have the inergy but I don’t have the ability. He is satisfied about his past days but he worried about his coming days. this is the subject matter.
He is really worried if God is displeased of what he doing. We have a quotation mark. He is asking himself ,”doth God exact day-labor, light denied” because his talent of reading is too important to him he feel disport and he wants to day.
He asks himself does God apresheat the one who have more than the one who has less because he is disable.
I fondly ask; but patience to prevent
That murmur , soon replies , “God doth not need
Either mans work or his own gifts ; who best
Fond means foolish in old English. He knows from the very beginning that he shouldn’t ask such question. He is a religious man. He has faith. He shouldn’t ask this question. It means that he has doubts. Patience is capitalizes. Patience is one of the characteristic of the believers should have.
((To prevent that murmur)) it means that the question is not said loudly-openly-
((soon replies)) that God doesn’t need mans work or his own gifts. Nether his talent nor his works.

Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best.his state
Is kingly.thousands at his biddig speed
Those who worship God best would deserve his acceptance. Those who show obedience and worship God as he like they serve God best .you don’t serve God through what you give. The talent that you have God gives you it. Worshiping God is through your talent that God gave you.
It is all connected together. You have to do your best in any condition. Even you have only one talent. You should work on it.
Is kingly.thousands at his biddig speed
And post o er land and ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.
God doesn’t need help from you. Thousands are worshiping him over oceans and lands. They only serve who only stand and wait. Who worship God properly and wait for the judgment day. Always the judgment day in front of his eyes.
You have to do your best
The theme is: the man has to do his best with the talent he has in order to serve God.
How could he discusses this theme and to make it understood by you. The subject matter is the poet blindness. This experience is too personal even his doubts he talked about it. Then he ends with the conclusion. He starts his poem pessimistic and ends it optimistic. He starting his poem showing his weakness and end it showing his power and hope. We have paradoxes: in line number one we have light and number two we have dark. Death and number four the soul. My true account means my faith and past life serving God. Murmur is stopped by faith.

The dialogue form

The dialogue is a form of poetry which is not often used. However, Marvell did write several: A Dialogue between the Resolved Soul and Created Pleasure; Clorinda and Damon; A****************s and Thestylis are other examples, the first like this one, a moral debate; the other two, pastoral poems with some religious significance. It is best to see this dialogue as being like a first class cricket match. Both sides get two innings, alternately. At the end, we have to declare the match drawn. Marvell, though clearly favoring the Soul, does not give either side the match-winning argument.
Soul says

The soul opens the batting with a powerful complaint: it is not only being imprisoned in the body, but tortured by it. The image of the soul being imprisoned is typically Platonic. Its move is to escape through the death of the body. Marvell plays with several parts of this extended conceit: ‘blinded with an Eye’ makes a nice paradox. The organs of sense blind (and bind) the soul to heaven, keeping it bound to sense impressions. Blinding was a common form of torture, as was constant sound. The worst part is ‘a vain head’, meaning stuffed with idle, fruitless thoughts, and a ‘double Heart’, because divided.
Body replies

The body is not too well pleased with this onslaught, and accuses the soul of driving it around, when all it wants is a quiet life. It even has to get up and walk upright! (‘mine own Precipice I go’). The soul makes it restless with its own restlessness. It feels possessed by ‘this ill spirit’.
Soul’s response

The soul's response is to enlarge on the ‘double Heart’. It has its own grief through being trapped in the body and has to bear the body's grief as well. We might say in modern terms, the soul here is both the psychology and the spirituality of human existence: the psychology derives from the body; the spirituality, from its heavenly origins. Left to itself, it would escape the body by letting it die; but the body's concern is to keep itself alive, and the soul is forced to help it do that. Again, Marvell makes the most of this paradox in his imagery: ‘Shipwreck into health again’; ‘what worse, the cure’.
Body concludes

The body is allowed its second innings. It lists the psychological suffering the soul forces on it through hope, fear, love, hatred and so on. The list goes on through the whole stanza. It climaxes with the paradox:
What but a Soul could have the wit
To build me up for Sin so fit?
Only the soul has given it the consciousness of sin. Left to itself, it would live like the animals in instinctive, undifferentiated being. The final image is one that Marvell was to take up several times in his ‘Mower’ poems: the body is like an undifferentiated tree growing naturally; the soul like an architect (or topiary gardener, as we might say), which trims and prunes it into all kinds of outlandish and unnatural shapes.
The key question

The final question is a real dilemma, then: Marvell has been working slowly towards it. Do human beings live ‘as Nature intended’, however shapeless that life might be morally or intellectually? Or do we raise ourselves through, allowing our ‘souls’ or spirits to restrain and shape our lives according to some overall design? Marvell does not push through to the soul's early conclusion: its wish for death as escape. He recognises life is something that has to be accepted, however problematic it is.

Investigating A Dialogue between Soul and Body

• Read through A Dialogue between the Soul and Body
  • Pick out some of the images and work them out
• Compare Marvell's Platonism here with that of Vaughan in his Ascension - Hymn
  • What are the differences in the way they express their desire to escape earthly existence?
• What is ****************physical about this poem?
• Compare Marvell's attitude to the body to Donne's.

Poetry (12) Last 2nd year 2nd term Dr:Hessa
"The rape of the lock" Alexander Pope
************************************************** *******
The Rape of the Lock was written at the request of John Caryl, a Catholic man of letters and Pope's lifelong friend and correspondent. In the year 1711, Robert, Lord Petre (the Baron of the poem), a relative of Caryl's, caused a serious quarrel by the theft of a lock of Miss Arabella Fermor's hair (Pope's Belinda) in the poem. Caryl requested a jesting poem to laugh the families out of their anger.
Who are the neo-classical poets?
Alexander Pope is one of the neo-classical poets. The neo- classical poets are the poets who are influenced by the classical trends by reading the masterpieces of the Latin and translating it and they believed that the classical way of writing is the best model to be followed. They had different characteristics, as they believed that the best rule should be taken from nature as it provides man with all the good rules as nature is not walking haphazardly but by rules. They used to wrote universal ideas and believed that the perfection of art by following the rules of writing structure, grammar, and meter, so they were seeking for correctness.
Alexander Pope is the father of the neo- classical; he has many critical writings about man. Here, he tried to write epic, which has to be about heroes and heroic events and there must be a tragic fall of the hero, as he is a human being with mistakes. He imitates the classic by writing the epic but the occasion of the story is very different. It tries to reflect the behavior of the ladies at that time as they were interested in parties, dancing, playing piano, and getting married by trying to hunt husbands.
The story is about lord loving Blinda " the heroine' and he cut the lock of her hair as she does not want to love him, so there was a war between the two families. He wrote this poem to make a funny situation, trying to breach this gap between the two families and to satirize the life of the aristocratic class, to reflect their mistakes that they have to be noticed and passed it. They should try to find some thing useful in their life besides the parties.
Rape is a very serious act as the family considered it very sad event, the thing which reflects their triviality. He used the epic form to mock this triviality of that time.
The poet used the epic machine .it is a tragic hero, but here heroine, and she is supposed to be tragic , but different tragic as the tragic incidents here is about the falling of the hair, and the battle is between the ladies to win husband.
He used all the characteristics of the epic but to mock, the epics always have a god and a goddess, and super natural elements. Here the poet invented the help of "fairies" sylphs", small tiny airy are supposed to help the heroine Blinda, they help her to be the most beautiful one by bringing her the cosmetics, jewelry, dresses, and perfumes. The name of their leader is called Ariel , he is taking the most important procedure with Blinda. Ariel is taking care of her dog which wake her up every day after 12 clock as she has no thing to do. Hence, it is called mock-heroic epic where he is satirizing the age of this time using the characteristics to give importance to this trivial subject.
"The rape of the lock" Alexander Pope
Stanza 1:
What dire offence from am'rous causes springs,
2What mighty contests rise from trivial things,
3I sing--This verse to Caryl, Muse! is due:
4This, ev'n Belinda may vouchsafe to view:
5Slight is the subject, but not so the praise,
6If she inspire, and he approve my lays.
He uses the classical division using the same procedures of the classical poets starting the poem telling what he is going to say. In the first two lines, he tries to invoke the muse of the reader by telling the reader what he is going to say, the main theme, or the purpose of the poem. Then, he mentions the love relation between Blinda and her lover, which is serious matter that caused problem that is a trivial incident. He describes Blinda's beauty. He describes how she is helped by the fairies"| sylphs" who are the inhabitants of the air.
Stanza 2:
Know further yet; whoever fair and chaste
Rejects mankind, is by some sylph embrac'd:
For spirits, freed from mortal laws, with ease
Assume what sexes and what shapes they please.
What guards the purity of melting maids,
In courtly balls, and midnight masquerades,
Safe from the treach'rous friend, the daring spark,

The spirits who are free from mortal laws and take the shape of any thing, they helps her in any thing. She wants to be the most beautiful one.
Stanza 3:
Of these am I, who thy protection claim,
A watchful sprite, and Ariel is my name.
Late, as I rang'd the crystal wilds of air,
In the clear mirror of thy ruling star
saw, alas! some dread event impend,
Ere to the main this morning sun descend,
But Heav'n reveals not what, or how, or where:
Warn'd by the Sylph, oh pious maid, beware!
This to disclose is all thy guardian can.
Beware of all, but most beware of man!"

Here Ariel is talking who says that he is one of these fairies" sylphs" who protects her and advises her as a guardian of her to be a ware of all but mostly of man.
Stanza 4:
He said; when Shock, who thought she slept too long,
Leap'd up, and wak'd his mistress with his tongue.
'Twas then, Belinda, if report say true,
Thy eyes first open'd on a billet-doux;
Wounds, charms, and ardors were no sooner read,
But all the vision vanish'd from thy head.

Shock' her dog" wakes her up and check the letters as apart of the battle , she checks how many love letters she received, she reads about her charm , then, she starts to wake up really and be aware.
Stanza 5:
And now, unveil'd, the toilet stands display'd,
Each silver vase in mystic order laid.
First, rob'd in white, the nymph intent adores
With head uncover'd, the cosmetic pow'rs.
A heav'nly image in the glass appears,
To that she bends, to that her eyes she rears;
Th' inferior priestess, at her altar's side,
Trembling, begins the sacred rites of pride.
Unnumber'd treasures ope at once, and here
The various off'rings of the world appear;
From each she nicely culls with curious toil,
And decks the goddess with the glitt'ring spoil.
This casket India's glowing gems unlocks,
And all Arabia breathes from yonder box.
The tortoise here and elephant unite,
Transform'd to combs, the speckled and the white.
Here files of pins extend their shining rows,
Puffs, powders, *****es, bibles, billet-doux.
After wakening, she goes to the toilet to fix herself, as the maids unveiled it the moment. She wakes up to robe her in white and decorate her dress and reveal the power of the cosmetic to be beautiful. In the mirror she appears a heavenly image as an angel. There are different slaves helping her, the priestess is one of her maids which supports her with heavenly spiritual image, the thing which reflects the idea that her toilet is like a place in a church" altar", this to make seriousness out of a trivial situation. With trembling hand, they work in her, as they are worried if doing some thing wrong. Then, the poet says that she is confident to the extent being a pride which is considered a sin. From each treasure, she takes some thing support her beauty to be like a goddess. Then she wears the jewelry coming from India and from another box, another Arabian perfume appears. The poet mentions tortoise and elephant trying to criticize her.
Then he mentioned the ****************************s on her table," puffs, powders…", and to give importance to the situation, he mentions the word Bible, and there is alliteration in "puffs, powder…" As the words starts equally with the sound "p".
Stanza 6:
Now awful beauty puts on all its arms;
The fair each moment rises in her charms,
Repairs her smiles, awakens ev'ry grace,
And calls forth all the wonders of her face;
keener lightnings quicken in her eyes.
The busy Sylphs surround their darling care;
These set the head, and those divide the hair,
Some fold the sleeve, whilst others plait the gown;
And Betty's prais'd for labours not her own.

A dangerous beauty appears, here, there is a paradox in the two words "beauty ad awful". With her arms, she goes into the battle, the arms showing seriousness to the situation, this very different battle. Then, the poet reflects her while she looks at the mirror to see how beautiful she is. The unnaturalness not only in her appearance looking but also in her behavior as she is trying to see how she will act. Now she is satisfied with her blushing and her lightening eyes. Now all the sylphs helping her to put the last touch at her wholly. Now she is prepared for the battlefield.
How dare this lover cut her hair, so he is making fun from the behavior of this time and its triviality. The lock of her is very precious as it takes along time to prepare it as it is apart of her arms. The word rape is very serious word, so the trivial and seriousness are going side by side in the poem as the poet used serious words and way of writing to express the triviality.
Meaning of mock- heroic
Mock-heroic or heroic-comic works are typically satires or parodies that mock common Classical stereotypes of heroes and heroic literature. Typically, mock-heroic works invert the heroic work by either putting a fool in the role of the hero or by exaggerating the heroic qualities to such a point that they become absurd.

بنات مليون بالميه الاسئله موحده >>الظاهر قانون جديد هع


دمدم الله يرزقكـ اللي تتمنينه قولي امين

الله سعدنا ويوفقنا اميييين

رد: •• {{ 2nd year English students cafe ««
 

والله ما اظن ان الاسئله موحده لانه بالشهري ما وحدوا الاسئله لو بيوحدونها كان من الشهري



ما ادري الله يستر:000:



يارب ما هي موحده لانهم يشرحون اشياء مختلفه
د/مها تهتم بالقصه نفسها يعني بالبلوت اما الدكتور تهمه اشياء ثانيه مثل السورسز و..... والقصه نستخدمها كمثال وهذي الاشياء ماتركز عليها مها:g2:


السمستر الاول كانت مها وبتول والاسئله ما كانت موحده :d5:

صووووووووووووح :cheese:

رد: •• {{ 2nd year English students cafe ««
 

ما اتوقع تكون موحده لان في اختلافات شوي
بنات د صلاح اذا عندكم ايميله اسالوه وخبرونا الترم الاول الميدترم مختلف والفاينال موحد
بس عطونا خبر قبل ومها اللي حطت الاسئله
وبليز بنات اللي عارفه زبدت الروايه الثانيه
تكتبها لنا بالعربي وجزاها الله الف خير

رد: •• {{ 2nd year English students cafe ««
 

الترم الاول الفاينل الاساله موحده بين مها وبتول

وحنا طالبات بتول كنا بننهار لان مافيه شي ذكرته او شرحته بتول الذكيه بس سنعه تقرا الروايه

نسيتوا يوم تجهش علينا هوني ايز خخخخخخخخخ

رد: •• {{ 2nd year English students cafe ««
 

انا وصلني خبر ان الاسئله موحده .. وان اللي بيدقق فيها اكثر دكتورنا صلاح

وترا لاحظت هالسمستر شرح الدكتور والدكتوره متطابق مرره ..لاني حضرت انا مع مها سلام وكنت غلطانه بالسي ار ان بعدها حضرت مع صلاح وكان يشرح بنفسسسسس طريقه مها...كان مها اللي تشرح


فلاتخافون..الاثنين يدققون على نفس الاشياء

كنت مفهيه المحاضره اللي فاتت..وتقريبا كانت بس اختبار وسالني وبعد فهيت عنده واستلمني


بس باحاول استرجع من كتاباتي معاه بالمحاضره



اول شي بابدا من اخر شي كتبته الى الاول <ّ معليه فاصله ^__^



ركز كثييييير على اسلوب sterne في السمنتل جرني

اي صح

فيه شي كاتبه عنده حفظ اللي هو " sterne used suspense in his novel يعني نتكلم عنها


والثيم وعلاقته مع التايتل


وفيه شي كاتبه عليه so imp اللي هو "the importence of the journey motif

والي جوابه كان نقاط منها *life itself is a journey srats wih cry and ends with cry مكتوبه باوراق صلاح

وبعد فيه عن روياه برايد ...سؤال Jane Austen as a feminist writer وكيف شرحت وعرضت المشاكل في زمنها والمجمتع النسائي كيف كان

ومنها 1. women had no jobs


story of conflect between men and women


تعريف الscope وكيف كانت النظره المحدوده لجين اوستن..وهذا حضرته مع مها سلام ومه صلاح وكان نفسس الشرح


بعد كان يسالنا دايم عن شخصيت كولينز..ذاك الغبي ...وشلون رساالته توضح شخصيته ونوع الايروني اللي بالرساله


وطبعا انواع الايروني اللي هي verbal-phrasal-irony of situation


ولاتستغربون ان جاب لنا الplot ^__^ وقال اكتبيها ..سواها لنا باختبار


وش وش وش بعد

ايه اذكر سؤال كان بالسنتمنتل اللي هو كلمة "sentimental" وهل هي وصف مكان ..طبعا هي كانت تصف مشاعره وهو بالسفر و ماكان يوصف الاماكن...بس وش اللي كان يحسه ويفكر فيه وقال لنا جيبي موقف صار يدل على هالكلمه


هذا بس تقريبا اللي اذكره حتى الحين <~ تنحت


اذا ذكرت شي كتبته
