Ozymandias and London Poem Analysis for Kids - Annotations and PDFs

London by William Blake
This page delves into William Blake's poem "London", providing a detailed analysis of its themes, structure, and poetic devices. The context of Blake as a Romantic poet inspired by the French Revolution is explained, setting the stage for understanding the poem's critique of society.
The poem is presented with extensive annotations, offering a line-by-line explanation of its meaning and significance. Blake's use of repetition, emotive language, and powerful imagery is highlighted throughout the analysis.
Definition: Chartered - In this context, it means owned or controlled, emphasizing how even natural elements like the Thames are subject to human ownership.
Example: The repetition of "marks" in the first stanza emphasizes the pervasive nature of suffering in London.
Highlight: The poem uses the metaphor of "mind-forged manacles" to suggest that people are trapped not just physically, but mentally by societal constraints.
The structure of the poem is analyzed, noting its use of four quatrains with an ABAB rhyme scheme, which reflects the control and regulation Blake observes in London. The progression of the poem from general observations to specific instances of suffering is examined.
Quote: "In every cry of every man, / In every infant's cry of fear, / In every voice, in every ban, / The mind-forged manacles I hear."
The analysis explores Blake's critique of institutions such as the church and the monarchy, and how he portrays the suffering of common people, including chimney sweepers, soldiers, and prostitutes.
Extract from The Prelude by William Wordsworth
This page introduces an extract from William Wordsworth's autobiographical poem "The Prelude", focusing on a childhood memory of stealing a boat. The context of Wordsworth as a Romantic poet influenced by the Lake District is provided.
The extract is presented with detailed annotations, offering insights into Wordsworth's use of language and imagery to convey his experience of nature and its impact on his psyche.
Vocabulary: Pathetic fallacy - The attribution of human emotions or characteristics to inanimate objects or nature.
Highlight: The poem begins with a positive tone, setting a peaceful rural scene before transitioning to more complex emotions.
Quote: "One summer evening I found / A little boat tied to a willow tree / Within a rocky cove, its usual home."
The analysis explores how Wordsworth uses nature imagery to reflect his emotional state and the development of his poetic sensibility. The extract serves as an example of Romantic poetry's focus on individual experience and the relationship between humans and nature.
The page also touches on the form and structure of the extract, noting its use of blank verse and how this contributes to the flow of Wordsworth's narrative.
Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley
This page provides a comprehensive analysis of Ozymandias, a sonnet by Percy Bysshe Shelley. The poem is presented with detailed annotations that offer insights into its meaning, structure, and poetic devices.
The context of the poem is explained, noting that Shelley was a major English Romantic poet who wrote against monarchy and power. The inspiration for the poem came from the statue of King Ramesses II being brought to the British Museum.
The poem's structure is analyzed, highlighting the use of a framed narrative with a speaker reflecting on a traveler's tale. Key poetic devices are identified, such as alliteration and juxtaposition, which contribute to the poem's themes of power and the passage of time.
Highlight: The poem uses irony to convey how even a powerful human cannot control the damaging effects of time.
Vocabulary: Volta - A turn or shift in thought in a sonnet, typically occurring between the octave and sestet.
Quote: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: / Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
The analysis explores how Shelley uses imagery of decay and vastness to emphasize the insignificance of human power compared to the passing of time. The poem's critique of arrogance and the fleeting nature of earthly power is thoroughly examined.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
