In the class of Literature we have been reading and analysing the Poem the Poplar Field by William Cowper, and the teacher send us to create a presentation on certain aspects of it, I did it with Marco
Boys, Check grammar and missing words in your summary. The last sentence is really confusing. The choice of pictures to illustrate the change is excellent. When you write about the topic of death, you say that we should enjoy because we don't know when we are going to die. But the poem's message is rather that life is short -that we know- and pleasures are shorter. So it's not about not knowing when we are going to die, but being aware of the fact that we are indeed going to die and sooner than we think. In the analysis of the first quote, you wrote: this could demonstrate a nostalgic tone. The phrase is wrong. It should be: this creates a nostalgic tone. In the last line, you refer to deforestation. Remember it's not deforestation. If it were, there wouldn't be any trunks left. The analysis of devices is very good. Mark: 9 (nine)
