The Romance of Tristan and Iseult
[ send me this essay ]
(5 pp.) The theme of the age-old story of Tristan and Iseut is that of duty versus desire. The classic version involves a love triangle, one in which unplanned love occurs and challenges the existing love created by duty. This has been played out by Arthur, Guenevere, and Lancelot as well as Mark, Tristan and Iseult. Naturally the intensity of duty and desire must be equal to really add drama and poignancy to the mix. This discussion will examine Mathew Arnold's version of Tristan and Iseult (1852).

The Speaking Picture in Poetry
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page paper which discusses how renaissance poetry has often been seen as a body of work which presents a speaking picture. Poetry is much like painting in that it attempts to portray one moment in time, or one moment of thought, into words. It paints a picture full of images that allows us to envision in our minds, what the poet sees, feels, and thinks. Literature, the other art form using language, cannot do this due to the fact that it focuses on a great number of events, people, and thoughts. The paper discusses considerations concerning this form of art, with the work of English poet Francis Quarles being the primary focus in relationship to speaking pictures. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
