While reading, though, I have this feeling that Jane's not really a reliable narrator. I love the writing style, I love how we truly doesn't know what happened at the start, like we're piecing the memories together with the main character.

This paper aims to examine the differences in the directions that South and North Korean literature took during the early years of partition, through Baekseok’s poetry. The study concludes that the poems in Whitman's Leaves of Grass reveal the imagery in content signification and symbolic transaction for universal freedom.

Furthermore, it has been found that Whitman's select poems in the Leaves of Grass are written with a lot of imagery types and most of these are images of sight, touch, sound, and taste which are sensual that metaphorically extend the meaning of universal freedom. The study reveals that (1) the poetic imagery is produced by the senses of sight, touch, taste, and sound and (2) the persona in the select poems is a muted man speaking his right for universal freedom to his fellow oppressed and the oppressors. Qualitative method of pure descriptive discourse analysis of the poetic language in the chosen poems is used in this research. ![]() ![]() This qualitative research investigates the poetics in the select poems of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass and focuses on the following aspects: (1) imagery in content signification and (2) symbolic transaction for universal freedom. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() SeussĪfter reading Bartholomew and the Oobleck, introduce your science lesson by tell your kids they’ll be making Oobleck today for science and conducting an experiment.
