bolton homework

I chose the first quote to do my shotr essay on. I chose this one because of its deep meaning within its words. And just becuase it made a lot of sense as well. "You know, it's not the world that was my oppressor, because what the world does to you, if the world does it to you long enough and effectively enough, you begin to do to yourself." To me this meant that if the world is beating you up long enough and good enough you will do the same to yourself. Ehich is also true but in the same sense to differ with the legend of james baldwin. Even if the world beats you up and your life isnt the way you want. The best thing you can do for yourself is to try your best to fix its. Thats what i try to accomplish everyday but most of the time it fails but you cant get what you want all the time. But because i know that this makes me want to fix it even more. Most just think that life is here to put us to the test and make ourselves want top be the best thing alive. To m e it is not. To me life is an experience every soul goes through. And by making something of myself my soul can live better than most and then when im dead i can help someone else out with the memoirs of my soul.

soneto one.
his death with his love. He describes death as nothing if the love of his life were to die with him. Its explicit imagery says that he would die but it would be his lovers choice if she would come. I like this poem becuase its so sad

soneto two.
the subject uis that he has an unnoticed love. That he wants to let out but cant. Figurative language used was the way he described the evil that he must guard to keep that love from getting out. And the imagery was how he said "and one of him, whose own madness and fire
he must lament beneath those fabled trees,
and even in the water won't grow cold."

Soneto three
the subject of this poem is he again wants to give more than love this time. The figurative language and imagery used was "But if from close up I am set upon
by your eyes, then I feel, in frozen state
my very blood congeal within my veins."

3 edgar allen poe poems

1. Eldorado
2. A dream within a dream
3. the raven

Eldorado.
The subject of this poem is the continual stride of someone to get something that they want. The man wants to find eldorado to me that means many things it could mean that he is trying to find a way to get something better than what he already has. The fact that he started speaking to his shadow or a shadow that he saw. It to me seems like he gave up all hope in search of eldorado. But that shadow gave him his strive back. I like this poem because it reminds me of myself. Becuase everyone wants to get out of the hood but its hartder then many think.

A dream within a dream.
The subject of this poem is to explain life. How he descirbed the grains of sand in his hand in his dream but then that dream was but a dream of a continuing dream. And so on and so fourth. The fact of how it makes me think about what our life is really about or is it just a place for our souls to rest in our bodies dreams. I lioked this poem for the simple fact that it reminded me of deja'vu'

The raven.
The subject of this poem is to explain ow choices affect you. The figuraive language would be how he described the bird as the devil. But he knew that it wasnst. But he constanly questioned his self about it. I like this poem becuase of its depth within its words.

Mr. Josephs Homework

1. List five types of molecules that are transported by the cardiovascular system.
-white blood cells
-red blood cells
-Platelets
-water
-oxygen

2. what is the difference between capillaries, veins and arteries?
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, to the cells that need them. Veins carry blood containing carbon dioxide back to the heart after the oxygen has been given to the cells. Capillaries are the thinnest arteries and veins. They are only one cell wide. As the blood cell passes through the very thin capillary, the cells on either side are given oxygen and carbon dioxide is taken from them. Therefore, the capillaries connect the arteries and veins.

Poem is By - Edgar Allen Poe.


A Dream Within A Dream

Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream. I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand-How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep,While I weep- while I weep! O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave?Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream? Edgar Allan Poe



Poe's Childhood

Edgar Poe was born in Boston on January 19, 1809. That makes him Capricorn, on the cusp of Aquarius. His parents were David and Elizabeth Poe. David was born in Baltimore on July 18, 1784. Elizabeth Arnold came to the U.S. from England in 1796 and married David Poe after her first husband died in 1805. They had three children, Henry, Edgar, and Rosalie.

Elizabeth Poe died in 1811, when Edgar was 2 years old. She had separated from her husband and had taken her three kids with her. Henry went to live with his grandparents while Edgar was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. John Allan and Rosalie was taken in by another family. John Allan was a successful merchant, so Edgar grew up in good surroundings and went to good schools.

When Poe was 6, he went to school in England for 5 years. He learned Latin and French, as well as math and history. He later returned to school in America and continued his studies. Edgar Allan went to the University of Virginia in 1826. He was 17. Even though John Allan had plenty of money, he only gave Edgar about a third of what he needed. Although Edgar had done well in Latin and French, he started to drink heavily and quickly became in debt. He had to quit school less than a year later.

Poe in the Army

Edgar Allan had no money, no job skills, and had been shunned by John Allan. Edgar went to Boston and joined the U.S. Army in 1827. He was 18. He did reasonably well in the Army and attained the rank of sergeant major. In 1829, Mrs. Allan died and John Allan tried to be friendly towards Edgar and signed Edgar's application to West Point.

While waiting to enter West Point, Edgar lived with his grandmother and his aunt, Mrs. Clemm. Also living there was his brother, Henry, and young cousin, Virginia. In 1830, Edgar Allan entered West Point as a cadet. He didn't stay long because John Allan refused to send him any money. It is thought that Edgar purposely broke the rules and ignored his duties so he would be dismissed.

A Struggling Writer

In 1831, Edgar Allan Poe went to New York City where he had some of his poetry published. He submitted stories to a number of magazines and they were all rejected. Poe had no friends, no job, and was in financial trouble. He sent a letter to John Allan begging for help but none came. John Allan died in 1834 and did not mention Edgar in his will.

In 1835, Edgar finally got a job as an editor of a newspaper because of a contest he won with his story, "The Manuscript Found in a Bottle". Edgar missed Mrs. Clemm and Virginia and brought them to Richmond to live with him. In 1836, Edgar married his cousin, Virginia. He was 27 and she was 13. Many sources say Virginia was 14, but this is incorrect. Virginia Clemm was born on August 22, 1822. They were married before her 14th birthday, in May of 1836. In case you didn't figure it out already, Virginia was Virgo.

As the editor for the Southern Literary Messenger, Poe successfully managed the paper and increased its circulation from 500 to 3500 copies. Despite this, Poe left the paper in early 1836, complaining of the poor salary. In 1837, Edgar went to New York. He wrote "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym" but he could not find any financial success. He moved to Philadelphia in 1838 where he wrote "Ligeia" and "The Haunted Palace". His first volume of short stories, "Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque" was published in 1839. Poe received the copyright and 20 copies of the book, but no money.

Sometime in 1840, Edgar Poe joined George R. Graham as an editor for Graham's Magazine. During the two years that Poe worked for Graham's, he published his first detective story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and challenged readers to send in crytograms, which he always solved. During the time Poe was editor, the circulation of the magazine rose from 5000 to 35,000 copies. Poe left Graham's in 1842 because he wanted to start his own magazine.

Poe found himself without a regular job once again. He tried to start a magazine called The Stylus and failed. In 1843, he published some booklets containing a few of his short stories but they didn't sell well enough. He won a hundred dollars for his story, "The Gold Bug" and sold a few other stories to magazines but he barely had enough money to support his family. Often, Mrs. Clemm had to contribute financially. In 1844, Poe moved back to New York. Even though "The Gold Bug" had a circulation of around 300,000 copies, he could barely make a living.

In 1845, Edgar Poe became an editor at The Broadway Journal. A year later, the Journal ran out of money and Poe was out of a job again. He and his family moved to a small cottage near what is now East 192nd Street. Virginia's health was fading away and Edgar was deeply distressed by it. Virginia died in 1847, 10 days after Edgar's birthday. After losing his wife, Poe collapsed from stress but gradually returned to health later that year.

Final Days

In June of 1849, Poe left New York and went to Philadelphia, where he visited his friend John Sartain. Poe left Philadelphia in July and came to Richmond. He stayed at the Swan Tavern Hotel but joined "The Sons of Temperance" in an effort to stop drinking. He renewed a boyhood romance with Sarah Royster Shelton and planned to marry her in October.

On September 27, Poe left Richmond for New York. He went to Philadelphia and stayed with a friend named James P. Moss. On September 30, he meant to go to New York but supposedly took the wrong train to Baltimore. On October 3, Poe was found at Gunner's Hall, a public house at 44 East Lombard Street, and was taken to the hospital. He lapsed in and out of consciousness but was never able to explain exactly what happened to him. Edgar Allan Poe died in the hospital on Sunday, October 7, 1849.

The mystery surrounding Poe's death has led to many myths and urban legends. The reality is that no one knows for sure what happened during the last few days of his life. Did Poe die from alcoholism? Was he mugged? Did he have rabies?
