To His Coy Mistress / Seizing The Day
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Every mother of every child has admonished the curse of time; if one does not take advantage of what comes one's way at the precise moment that it does, it is likely never to return again. By waiting and hoping one's life away, imagining things will be better with the addition of wealth or power, a person merely wishes time by. Thus is the message in Andrew Marvell's poem To His Coy Mistress, which speaks of the merits of seizing the day, rather than waiting until tomorrow to accomplish one's life dreams and goals. The writer discusses this concept as it relates to the poem. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Use Of Logic To Seduce Women In John Donne's 'The Flea' And Andrew Marvell's 'To His Coy Mistress'
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. It is a paltry attempt to employ the use of logic in both John Donne's The Flea and Andrew Marvell's To His Coy Mistress; however, despite the lack of ingenuity on their parts, the men have somewhat successfully achieved this goal. Indeed, one must utilize a decent amount of logic in order to acquire the sexual favors of the opposite sex, particularly when the recipient is an unwitting participant. Attention from their less-than-willing partners is what both Donne and Marvell are trying very diligently to acquire, yet their efforts are constantly met with obstruction. The writer compares how both authors employ logic into their seduction techniques. No additional sources cited.

Milton and Lanyer and The Fall of Man
[ send me this paper ]
A 2 page paper contrasting John Milton’s Book IX of “Paradise Lost” with Amelia Lanyer’s “Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum”. The paper notes that while Milton places the blame for the Fall of Man on Eve’s shoulders, and Lanyer attempts to deflect it back onto Adam, it is Milton who has the stronger argument.

Sappho and the Female Relationship
[ send me this paper ]
A 2 page paper looking at Sappho’s poems in terms of her evocation of the powerful bonds between women. Sappho shows that the love that exists between best friends of the same sex is just as strong, just as powerful, as the love that exists between the more traditional pairings such as husband and wife, or mother and child, and it was for this reason that her poetry was censored, and has nearly disappeared. No sources.

Gwendolyn Brooks' 'Kitchenette Building' / Meter
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper on Gwendolyn Brooks' short poem, looking at the tone, dramatic situation, and particularly the meter.
