Choose two or three poems (that we’ve read and analyzed in this unit) with common themes and analyze them (by employing the POINT-by-POINT comparison ). In this essay, you must discuss at least three literary devices the poets use—i.e. imagery, symbolism, metaphor, rhythm, repetition, setting/situation, voice/speaker, tone—but must do so in the development of a paragraph—that is, to develop a particular thematic point that stems from your thematic thesis. These literary devices do not have to be the same with each poem. To reiterate, like with your fiction paper, however, don’t just identify and discuss these elements. Instead, each body paragraph should begin with a topic sentence that identifies a thematic point that is a direct reflection of your thematic thesis. In the process of arguing, developing, your thematic thesis, then, discuss how the poets use these literary devices to achieve their thematic effects. You must have one overall thematic argumentative thesis, just like with your fiction paper. Be careful not to use the explanatory info in the book as a crutch. Follow the same writing guidelines from your fiction paper (substituting poems for short stories, of course).
