unit Five

 #1.
- A theme is the broad idea , message , or moral of the story.
  Imagination is important because it appeals to the mind more than logic thinking.


2. The part of the story i found truley romantic was the part where Rip had wonderd in to the woods. It all had the three parts of romanticism. Imagination and nature.
 '' The bottom filled with fragments from the impending cliffs, and scarcely lighted by the reflected rays of the setting sun''.  This example shows how the scence of the woods appealed to nature.
'' Rip Van Wickle , Rip Van wickle'' ? He looked around but could see nothing but a crow winging its solitary flight across the mountain '' - This shows how the text appealed to imagination by making the reader think that theres a ghost.

3. TO him who in the love of Nature holds

Communion with her visible forms, she speaks

A various language; for his gayer hours

She has a voice of gladness, and a smile

And eloquence of beauty,

- This examples shows how the poem appeals to nature and imagination two elements of
 romanticism. It shows nature speaking to the reader it personifies nature (Personification requires your imagination it wouldn't appeal to an logic person.)! It shows that death is apart of nature.

 

Yet not to thine eternal resting-place

Shalt thou retire alone, nor couldst thou wish

Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down

With patriarchs of the infant world--with kings,

The powerful of the earth--the wise, the good,

Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,

All in one mighty sepulchre.

- This example appeals to common people the element of romanticism by stating that even the aristochrats will be the same as common people in death they will all be the same dirt.




5. - '' Nature''
 Reading this story reminds me of the most place I love to be and thats in my room.
 I do alot of thinking and just being away from the world and to be alone and get alot of thinking done.
 '' The sun iiluminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and the heart of the child''
 This quote explains how nature appeals more to a child than it would a grown man. Because the child still has imagination and can understand the importance and beauty of nature
6.
 '' Self Reliance''
 This is apppeals to transcendentalism because it shows all of the elements.
  - it shows that you should rely on self wich relates to the believe that the mind was the most
 powerful thing in the universe.


7. '' The sun iiluminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and the heart of the child''
 This quote explains how nature appeals more to a child than it would a grown man. Because the child still has imagination and can understand the importance and beauty of nature
 The video relates to this quote becasue even though the man was not a child he steal appealed to nature like one . He still understood the beauty and appreciated nature like only a child would .
 Closer
 I believe the work I've done appeal to the Georgia standards because it shows
 that I can identify and analyze knowledge from American Literature. Also my work elevates the authors choice of words to show the theme and mood.
