She was the daughter of Icarius and Periboea. Her husband went missing for 20 years after the Trojan War, during this time she was pursued by many suitors. She stayed faithful to Odysseus, while he was away. When he arrived home, she was waiting for him. ]]> 2017-03-21 21:31:25 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161666292 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161666575 Penelope was considered the ideal image of a greek wife; beautiful, intelligent, loyal. This was depicted through her choice to stay loyal during her husbands years away. We also saw her intelligence and cunning abilities through the way that she would weave her tapestry during the day and unpicking it at night, to prolong her choice as to which suitor she would wed. ]]> 2017-03-21 21:33:45 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161666575 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667066 2017-03-21 21:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667066 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667117 The general tone of the poem is melancholic, as she is missing her husband dearly. However she finds her light in the darkness, her love for sewing. In his absence she  "found a lifetimes industry". Her mood develops from missing him, to in the end of the poem realising that even though her husband is missing from her life, she is able to find happiness in other things, such as sewing. ]]> 2017-03-21 21:38:01 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667117 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667775 2017-03-21 21:43:17 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667775 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667882 Carol Ann Duffy uses Enjambment throughout her poem Penelope. The function of enjambment in poetry is typically to allow an idea to continue beyond the limitations of a single line, often to reinforce certain ideas within the lines themselves. 
Carol uses this in the lines; "But found a lifetimes industry instead.
I sewed a girl" 
This highlights the importance of the object Penelope is sewing. ]]> 2017-03-21 21:44:10 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/161667882 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162001192 Carol Ann Duffy uses imagery throughout the third, fourth and fifth stanzas to intricately describe the weaving that Penelope does during the day and unpicks at night. "I chose between three greens for the grass, a smokey pink, a shadows grey, to show a snapdragon gargling a bee." The use of the colours helps us to paint a visual picture of what the tapestry would have looked like. ]]> 2017-03-23 01:20:00 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162001192 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162001385 2017-03-23 01:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162001385 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162002674 Each stanza has 9 lines apart from the last stanza which has 11. This is due to the enjambment used to highlight the importance of the authors message. E.g. "When i heard a far too late familiar tread outside
the door." 
"And aimed it surely at the middle of the needles eye
once more" - The author is trying to emphasise that there is still a barrier between her and her husband, and she will carry on with the cycle of sewing and unpicking. ]]> 2017-03-23 01:33:38 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162002674 savannah_eagle https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162003890 2017-03-23 01:45:33 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/162003890 rimatulaiha https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/262194977 what are the themes in "Penelope" by carol Ann Duffy? ]]> 2018-05-20 17:42:49 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/262194977 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/394820581 2019-10-08 03:59:28 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/394820581 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517566637 i dont know]]> 2020-04-20 13:56:35 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517566637 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517590864 please]]> 2020-04-20 14:04:33 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517590864 finlaxative https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517594890 help]]> 2020-04-20 14:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517594890 finlaxative https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517610561 2020-04-20 14:10:50 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/517610561 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/530204068 2020-04-25 16:35:11 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/530204068 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/604227973 2020-06-01 07:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/604227973 https://padlet.com/savannah_eagle/ugve9bui19cg/wish/761415349 I am procrastinating
