Read the poem "If We Must Die" by Claude McKay
If we must die-let it not be like hogs
Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot,
While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs,
Making their mock at our accursed lot.
If we must die oh, let us nobly die,
So that our precious blood may not be shed
In vain; then even the monsters we defy
Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!
Oh, Kinsmen! We must meet the common foe;
Though far outnumbered, let us still be brave,
And for their thousand blows deal one death-blow!

Answer:
When I saw Gatz, John Collin's eight-hour interpretation of The Great Gatsby, I noticed that Fitzgerald changes the color of Daisy's hair every time he describes it. It is "like a dash of blue paint", "yellowy" like her daughters, and then "dark, shining". Perhaps Fitzgerald believed that Daisy, a character so transient that her love fluctuates from one man to another within a page, was too contradictory, too whimsical to retain a fixed appearance. For Gatsby, she is a dream, an ideal guaranteed to disappoint and as our view of her changes so does her hair. It is small details, a single word that changes the meaning of a passage, which make me love English Literature. In An Irish Airman Foresees His Death Yeats writes "I know that I shall meet my fate somewhere among the clouds above" and then later "a lonely impulse of delight drove to this tumult in the clouds". The pilot, who had been looking up at the clouds that are "above" him, is suddenly "in" them and we get a powerful sense of his ascent with only the use of two prepositions.
Podcasts of lectures given by Helen Vendler on poems such as Sailing to Byzantium and Among School Children inspired my interest in Yeats but the Romanticism that was so influential in his earlier work also fascinates me. In She Walks in Beauty Byron describes the light that "one ray the less" would have destroyed the grace that effuses both the trees and the face in his poem. I love the idea that the woman is made beautiful by light - that nature has the power to "mellow" a face or "solemnize" the mind as Shelley writes in Frankenstein. I also became interested in the lives of the Romantics after watching the plays Bloody Poetry, Mary Shelley, and the film Bright Star.
It was through Bright Star that I discovered my favorite poem Ode To A Nightingale - the sense of "drowsy numbness" allows us "to dissolve", like the narrator, and travel "through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways" until we are "upon the midnight" with the nightingale. The same sense of "dreamy divagation" is present in The Moose by Elizabeth Bishop and in both cases after being lulled by the gentle progression of the poem we are quickly awakened: Bishop "stops with a jolt" and Keats asks "do I wake or sleep?" I am looking forward to comparing literature in this way on a university course.
Attending my school's feminist society has inspired me to question the portrayals of women in literature. King Lear blames his wife for the wickedness of his daughters, Austen's Lizzy flaunts convention so successfully that she attracts a millionaire and marries him, Bella is referred to as "the lovely woman" throughout Our Mutual Friend, and Sonya is dismissed as a "sterile flower" when Nikolai abandons her in War and Peace. I am currently reading Middlemarch, which with Eliot's realistic heroines and flawed male characters, seems indicative of a radical change in the way in which women were being viewed both in literature and outside of it.
I have been strengthening my analytical skills with the creation of a blog in which I review the books I have recently read, such as Catch 22, A Picture of Dorian Grey, and The View from Castle Rock. This was especially beneficial when participating in an exhibition at the British Museum. I was part of a project in which we were asked to respond, through descriptions and sketches, to the construction of a new northwest wing of the gallery. I am interested in combining English and Art further and so would like to spend a year doing an art foundation before returning to academic study. Volunteering in the SEN department of my school has also had a profound effect on the way I view English Literature; many of the teenagers I work with find reading challenging and often struggle to express their opinions. By reading and discussing novels with them I realize that I am only just beginning to appreciate English Literature and am excited about expanding my knowledge on a university course.

Mental illness is a real thing that people can’t control without support and its something that needs to be addressed. If not dealt with, internal problems can result in irrational and dangerous behavior. Illnesses like schizophrenia, dissociative identity disorder, and other disorders/illnesses related to hallucinations, either auditory or visual can be dangerous for numerous reasons. Even disorders/illnesses considered lesser, or more common, like depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and ocd can be dangerous if they are left untalked about. Lack of support can lead to death and crime, without proper help, people might harm others or themselves. You shouldn't have to pay money to deal with something you cant control. Mental help needs to be available for those who aren’t capable of paying for the help they need themselves. Some mental illnesses and disabilities can cause people to struggle financially, and can even lead to homelessness. People need support as early as possible so they can hopefully lead a comfortable life. But without help, mentally challenged members of society might struggle through life.

If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were loved by wife, then thee;

Arise, my soul, on wings enraptur'd, rise
To praise the monarch of the earth and skies,
Whose goodness and beneficence appear
As round its centre moves the rolling year,
Or when the morning glows with rosy charms,
Or the sun slumbers in the ocean's arms:
Of light divine be a rich portion lent
To guide my soul, and favour my intent.
We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!

Answer:
The Inferno by Dante Alighieri is the first book in the extravagant trilogy of The Divine Comedy. This renowned and thrilling series shares Dante's extraordinary and creative imaginations through a poetic perspective. The Inferno begins Dante's death-defying journey as he strolls through the woods, overwhelmed with darkness when he finds a mountain that he could climb, in order to escape the clutches of this unceasing darkness. Discovering that his path is blocked by a she-wolf, a lion, and a leopard, he is forced to retreat back to the woods and meets the spirit of Virgil, a poet that was sent by Dante's deceased lover, Beatrice, to escort Dante to the peak of the mountain. Yet, Virgil explains that the only way to reach their destination, is to enter and endure the fiery pits of Hell and reach the gates of Heaven, where Beatrice awaits. This novel is exquisitely and artistically written, touching upon a plethora of subjects including judgement, remission, Greek mythology, and accompanied with spine-chilling moments that may leave you at the edge of your seat. It will definitely change the way you perceive life and guide you to realize that your harmful intentions can cause consequences.
