Period of Literature
The age of John Dryden roughly spans the period from the Restoration of Charles II in 1660 to the year 1700.

Place
He was born in Aldwinkle, Northamptonshire, England.

Date of Birth and death
John Dryden was born and died in London

-August 19th, 1631

-May 12th, 1700

Most important works and style
John Dryden wrote almost 30 plays and was one of the great dramatists of his time. In 1649 while still at Westminster, Dryden published his first poem, “Upon the death of Lord Hastings”.

In the early months of 1663 his first play, The Wild Gallant, was produced, but it proved a failure. In 1665 Dryden collaborated with his brother-inn-law, Sir Robert, on a heroic play, The Indian Queen. It was such a success that Dryden immediately wrote a sequel called “The Indian Emperor”.

Here Dryden occupied himself with the writing of a long poem on the Dutch War and the London fire, Annus mirabills and a critical essay in prose, An Essay of Dramatic Poesy. He also wrote a play, “Secret Love”.

In 1669 he produced “Tyrannic Love”, a play based on the life of St. Catherine. And had ever turned John Milton’s Paradise Lost into an Opera called “The State of Innocense” (1674).

Dryden wrote three other panegyrics during the early 1660’s To My Lord Chancellor (1662), and “To My Honour’d Friend”, Dr. Charletton (1663).

As a writer of prose, he developed a lucid professional style, relying on patterns and rhythms of everyday speech. As a critic he develops a combination of methods, historical, Analytical, evaluative, dialogic that helped grow neoclassical theory of literary critic. As a translator he developed and essay manner of what he called paraphrase that produced brilliant versions of Homer, Lucretius, Horace, Ovid, Juvenal, Persius, Givanni Boccaccio, Geoffrey Chaucer, and above all virgil. As a poet he perfected the heroic couplet, sprinkling it with judicious enjambments, triplets, and metric variations and bequeathing it to Alexander Pope to work upon it his own magic.

Contribution to Literature
John Dryden was made improvements to the diction of the Elizabeth prose by introducing a stripped-down English minus the flowery and exaggeration. His earlier days as a playwright was not much impressive, yet he went on to become the greatest literary figure of the Restoration Period and the succeeding age of classicism was greatly influenced by him. His translation works earned him this place.

John Dryden was “the leading man of his age and the age knew it, and looked up to him”. The first political recognition of his work came to him when he was asked to accept the appointments of Poet Laurate and Histographer Royal in 1670.

Enlightenment or The Age of the Reason

Place
Franklin was born in Boston, in what was then known as the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Date of Birth and Death
- Birth Date‎: ‎January 17, 1706

- Death Date‎: ‎April 17, 1790

Most important works and style
Ben wrote profusely. In 1728, he became the publisher of his own printing house by collaborating with Hugh Meredith, and published a newspaper “The Pennsylvania Gazette.” In 1733, he published “Poor Richard’s Almanack” that contained popular proverbs like “A penny saved is two pence dear.” In 1758, Ben printed “Father Abraham’s Sermon.” He also wrote his autobiography that was published after his death. With the passage of time, Ben became the United States’s most prominent literary journalist. He also edited and published his own essays “On Simplicity” and “Lying Shopkeepers” in “The Pennsylvania Gazette.”

The writing style of Benjamin Franklin was pragmatic, clear, and plain with a self-deprecating tone. He used declarative sentences as Puritan writers did. He also wrote several poems. Some of his most popular poems include “On the Freedom of the Press,” “Equivocation,” “Death is a Fisherman,” “The Benefit of Going to Law,” “Wedlock,” “Epitaph in Bookish Style,” and “He who’d Please All.”

Contribution of Benjamin Franklin to Literature
Franklin's contribution to the creation of an American national identity is perhaps the most important theme that needs to be emphasized. In connection with this, the students can discuss his role in the shift in the American consciousness from an otherworldly to a this-worldly viewpoint. Franklin's abandonment of Puritanism in favor of the enlightenment's rationalism reflects a central shift in American society in the eighteenth century. In addition, his works reflect the growing awareness of America as a country with values and interests distinct from those of England--a movement that, of course, finds its climax in the Revolution. Franklin's participation in the growing confidence of the eighteenth century that humanity could, through personal effort and social reform, analyze and deal with social problems reveals the optimism and self-confidence of his age, as do his scientific achievements.

Place
Jefferson was born at the Shadwell plantation located just outside of Charlottesville, Virginia. Jefferson was born into one of the most prominent families of Virginia's planter elite.

Date of Birth and Death
-Birth Date‎: ‎April 13, 1743

-Death Date‎: ‎July 4, 1826

Most Important works and Style
Even before he wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson was a fascinating figure.

-Jefferson's Draft of the Declaration of Independence (1776)

-The Declaration of Independence.

-Jefferson's Draft of the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom (1779)

-An excerpt from Notes on the State of Virginia (1781)

-The Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom (1786)

-Letter to Edward Carrington (1787)

-Except from a Letter to James Madison (1787)

-Letter to Richard Price (1787)

-Letter to James Madison (1789)

-Jefferson's exchange with the Danbury Baptists (1801-1802)

-Letter to Samuel Miller (1808)

-Letter to N. G. Dufeif (1814)

-Letter to Samuel Kercheval (1816)

Notably, Jefferson wrote on a wide array of subjects, ranging from geology to government and philosophy. Simply put, much of what he wrote became starting points for other purely American explorations of the topics. His reverence for other writers had a direct influence on the Library of Congress, as much of the institution's original collection came courtesy of Jefferson.

However, it is in Jefferson's style that something truly American is established. At a time when British writers were eager to still be somewhat verbose, Jefferson rejected superfluous language for something that was much clearer and more concise. It is still enormously eloquent, but the writing is designed to be read by anyone who is literature.

Contribution of Thomas Jefferson to Literature
Thomas Jefferson was the primary draftsman of the Declaration of Independence of the United States and the nation's first secretary of state (1789–94), its second vice president (1797–1801), and, as the third president (1801–09), the statesman responsible for the Louisiana Purchase.

Enlightenment or The Age of the Reason

Place
Thomas Paine was born in Thetford, England

Date of Birth and Death
-Born Date: January 29, 1737.

-Died Date: June 8, 1809.

Most Important works and Style
Thomas Paine writer who supported revolutionary causes in America and Europe. Published in 1776 to international acclaim, “Common Sense” was the first pamphlet to advocate American independence. After writing the “The American Crisis” papers during the Revolutionary War, Paine returned to Europe and offered a stirring defense of the French Revolution with “Rights of Man.” His political views led to a stint in prison; after his release, he produced his last great essay, “The Age of Reason,” a controversial critique of institutionalized religion and Christian theology.
We may look at Paine’s style today and need a second to adjust to how it was written. However, Paine’s style was solid. He wrote to express and explain ideas, to try to bring intellectual thought to a language that the common man could understand.

Paine has flourishes of genius, yes; but Paine’s writing is rarely unnecessarily verbose. It is grounded in a desire to express complex ideas by relating them to other concepts, an interdisciplinary method. Paine’s writing draws information from not only current events, but he consistently pulled from the past. Yet, with a constant eye on the future; on that “progeny” of America.

Contribution of Thomas Paine to Literature
Paine's contribution to the American Revolution was "fashioning a new language that presented politics in a vernacular that artisans and other middling sorts were already accustomed to reading". In so doing, Paine enfranchised his popular audience, thereby expanding the public sphere, and he demonstrated that arguments about government can be based upon "the use of simple logic" and "were not contingent on access to privileged information or education". Indeed, as Larkin points out, this democratizing effort led his critics to attack him, contain his ideas, and ultimately marginalize him and his contributions to the American effort for independence. Paine's language worked toward undermining elite culture and dismantling elite power structures, and to this day, Larkin implicitly argues, efforts to contain Paine's radicalism have met with considerable success, given the brief discussions of or outright inattention to him.

What can you tell about the style of the author?

His style is unusual since he uses a special terminology as religious vocabulary and also he mix latín phrses in his poem, but the most complicate of his style is the kind of vocabulary that he uses to describe the dark side and the celestial side; in some sentences we may not be able to understand as someone explains to us or we use a dictionary; But not everything is negative, some sentences are understandable or I could understand them and the style is very characteristic of this period.

Benjamin Franklin was an amazing person; he was a person that did a lot of contributions to the society in special the plan of the 13 virtues that we should have and the things that we should be as a guide for us.

In my personal experience of life, one of my virtues is Humility because I’ve had the opportunities to exalt myself in front of others, however, I haven’t done, because, I consider that the best opportunity to exalt myself is in to the eyes of YHWH. And it's not something that I would do either. I like that people discover who I am by my actions, not by the number of awards, degrees and diplomas that I may have.

Humility is a virtue that it allows me to climb many steps in my professional career and in my personal life; and it's my secret of success in my life.

Which is your favorite poem? (She Walks in Beauty, Ozymandias, The Little BoyLost) Why?

# data[].attributes.body
For me the most beuatiful poem is "Ozymandias"; because this poem transmit the idea of the power, which represent the power is just temporary, not matter who be the president or the great rulers always the power is temporary. And this poem is similar with the situation that we are living in our country full of corrupte people, the same people that keep poor the population and they absorve the money of the State as leech.
I identify completely with this poem.

The other thing that I like of this poem is the message that author transmit at the end of the reign, no matter the great things the any governor did, with the time all the things desappear and only they will remain by the history.

“Science does not know its debt to imagination.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

I think that it's completely true because without the imagination and the need to create new thing that contribute to humanity to do easier the daily work; We will live in big hole without technological advances in important areas as medicine, education, industries, etc. Imagination always is the ideal couple of Science.

Briefly compare the poems Annabel Lee and The Raven (Edgar Allan Poe).

# data[].attributes.body
" Annabel Lee is a poem about a man who is obsessed with this woman that any not even love him the way he loves her.
On the other hand, The Raven is about a man that lost his wife, and a raven flies to his window. The Raven continuously sits there as he responds," nevermore." The raven haunts the man as it is a symbol of his wife's memory.
I think that some differences about the two poems are that both authors handle the pain differently, and their setting is very different. Even though they are very different, they also have similarities. For example, both authors lose someone very close to them.  And the pain is a feeling that join to the people, and the best way to let off steam is to write.
And maybe, this is the best reason why both poems are similar.

I think that this poem "The Soul selects her own Society" give me the impression that talk about of the nature of the soul's approach to humanity and how it is separate from the self.
The nature is every that we have around us and as we know our soul is the base of our life, our happiness, if someone shut off his soul, perhaps will be as walking death. Well, I think so.

Contribution to Literature

· Dickens's approach to the novel is influenced by various things, including the picaresque novel tradition, melodrama, and the novel of sensibility. According to Ackroyd, other than these, perhaps the most important literary influence on him was derived from the fables of The Arabian Nights. Satire and irony are central to the picaresque novel.

· His writing style is marked by a profuse linguistic creativity. Satire, flourishing in his gift for caricature, is his forte.

· Comedy is also an aspect of the British picaresque novel tradition of Laurence Sterne, Henry Fielding, and Tobias Smollett. Fielding's Tom Jones was a major influence on the nineteenth novel including Dickens, who read it in his youth.

Contribution to Literature
In providing an overview of Frost's style, the Poetry Foundation makes the same point, placing Frost's work "at the crossroads of nineteenth-century American poetry [with regard to his use of traditional forms] and modernism [with his use of idiomatic language and ordinary, everyday subject matter]." They also note that Frost believed that "the self-imposed restrictions of meter in form" was more helpful than harmful because he could focus on the content of his poems instead of concerning himself with creating "innovative" new verse forms.

Throughout this period there was everything from period extension to classes via video conferences, where personally I had never experienced that, definitely this pandemic came to change everything, each person change the lifestyle and suspended the majority of our plans and our routines, but life goes on and we have to find other ways to continue; I liked this class because I didn't know a lot about literary art, however I learned so much about the first authors to the most current, I liked all the poems that I can read in this class but specially I liked the poem Ozymandias because it poems shows how people can get the power and at the same time lost; also I discovered a new way to read the poems and analized them.
I also think that, I learned to do an essay the right way, although you are the one with the last word, I liked the format to do it, you are right it is a little easier to do it that way Although it took a little bit for the three main points for my Thesis to have support and logic, but from there everything was easier, I enjoyed doing it regardless of the result; In general, I really liked how you taught the class although I would have liked to finish the class in person, but first there is health. Blessings and Regards!...
Always Take care! Thanks for everything!.......
