Demur--you're straightway dangerous"
These lines are important because it means that if you conform to the rest of society and keep up to what society says, then you are normal to their standards and if you stray away from the standard and be an individual then you will be dangerous ]]> 2020-02-14 18:34:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445736976 Q: What heavily connotative words are used? What words have unusual or special meanings? Are any words or phrases repeated? If so, why? Which words did you need to look up? cthuynh103 https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445740945 Madness is a heavily connotative word that is used. It connotes to going crazy, and is normally something bad but in this poem it means something good. It means that you are being an individual and being different. I needed to look up the word assent, which means to agree, and demur, which means to object. ]]> 2020-02-14 18:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445740945 Q: Are there any symbols? What do they mean? Are they universal symbols or do they arise from the context of this poem? kthai102 https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445742317 The symbol of this poem is the discerning eye, representing the society's "wise" people. This is not a universal symbol, since readers won't know what a discerning eye is without reading this poem.]]> 2020-02-14 18:43:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445742317 cthuynh103 https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445747316 2020-02-14 18:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kthai102/8uk8a6zqs7o5/wish/445747316
