Transcript: Setting One example of figurative language is one the narrator says"all my soul within me burning". The narrator is right now anger, thinking the tapping at his chamber door, is just a joke some person is trying to pull. He says this to show the emotion that he feels right now not that his soul is burning. Foreshadowing: Ravens mostly eat dead animals, so him coming to the narrator is a foreshadowing of him dieing. Motif: A recurring object in the story is death, when the narrator talks about the death of his beloved Lenore, and the death of the narrator when he takes his own life because the taunting of the raven. Elegy: The raven is a elegy, meaning song or poem that expresses sorrow, usually for one who has died. The Raven Presentation Part 1: The Overview By Jozef Tokarczyk The conflict of the story is the narrator, trying to over come the lost of his love, starts to be taunted by a raven speaking "Nevermore". Conflict Figurative Language Setting Time: Somewhere in the 18th century. Some hints this was a home heated by a fireplace, or the older English the narrator spoke . Place: A lounge by a fireplace, in a moderately rich home. Time: Thier are many hints in teh story that can tell the time. One is the words the narrator uses. He uses many words before our time like " beguiling", Another hint is the house it self. The house described was a moderate big home, heated by a fireplace, a big library, etc. Many of these details bring up images of old houses, possible right before the industrial revolution. This leads to my prediction of it being in the 18th century. Place: From the details I said before, it seemed to be a 18th century house, which seems moderatly rich. Characterization The two characters are the narrator and the raven. The narrator is in deep depression, mourning of the lost of his loved one named Lenore. Many times in the story he says how sorrowful he is because of losing her. The raven on the other hand, is a imagery creature that has come to taunt the narrator over his lost.

Transcript: In this scene, the man is sitting in his chair and staring at the raven to find its meaning. He suddenly realizes that the raven was bringing back the memories of Lenore. Nevermore is used as the end rhyme for the rest of the poem for each stanza. The word never gives you the sense that something will never happen again. You can't be sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. This makes you want to read the poem more. Edgar Allan Poe uses good techniques to keep people hooked on such a long poem like this one. A B C B B B When he says "Darkness there and nothing more", it really gives you a sense of how scared this guy is right now. He's just sitting here alone and hears knocking at his door. He finally builds up his courage and opens the door. All there is is darkness. How can I relate to this poem? Thanks for Watching!!! Here I'm starting to notice a lot of repetition on the words nothing more To hear the whole poem click here--> This stanza presents an new character named Lenore. From other details, you can tell that Lenore was lost somehow (not literally lost). I also think that this man is mourning her death because he loved her. He described her as rare and radiant. If you didn't read the title, you would have never guessed that a raven would be the one to step inside his chamber. Even more alliteration is evident here. These include the phrases "whispered word" and "Doubting, dreaming dreams". The dark is scary!! So far, I think it is really impressive how Edgar Allan Poe tends to keep the rhythm and the rhyme of this poem, without changing the topic and keeping the 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th lines of each stanza to end in the sound of ore. `Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting - `Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore! Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken! Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.' And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor; And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted - nevermore! Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore - For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore - Nameless here for evermore. At this point in the poem, you realize that the raven was just a metaphor in the whole poem. I think that the raven symbolizes the memory of Lenore and that the raven is trying to bring those memories back to the man that is trying to forget. That is why the man, all of a sudden, starts to yell at the raven at how evil it is. When he says "nothing more" he's literally saying that there is nothing more to the story and it's almost as if Edgar Allan Poe is telling you to stop reading. This is a good way to make the reader keep reading because they know that there is much more. It's almost like saying "don't touch that. It's just too soft and fluffy for you to touch it". All that does is make you want to touch the thing more. Asleep `Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! - Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore, Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted - On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore - Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.' `Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore - Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn, It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore - Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.' After being totally declined by a raven, the man is shouting for it to get out of his house and for it to leave and go back wherever it came from. Still, the raven stays put. In the last stanza, the man finally falls into the ravens curse and will be depressed as long as the raven is there with him. The second of these two stanzas present a new word that is repeated: Nevermore. This is one of the first times in the poem where Edgar Allan Poe uses alliteration. He says "entreating entrance". Both of these words start with "entr". This helps the poem not only with keeping its rhythm, but it mainly helps the poem sound better when it is being read aloud. Now, sadly, we must skip a few stanzas of this poem to hunt for more poetic devices! Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each

Transcript: Wisdom does not flow like water Plato’s Critique of Pederasty Pederasty Background Symposium Pederasty My Project Pausanias' Speech Pausanias' Speech Two Aphrodites Uranian Heavenly Pandemos Common Text Text Pictures Pictures "Here, Socrates, lie down alongside me, so that by my touching you, I too may enjoy the piece of wisdom that just occurred to you while you were in the porch. It is plain that you found it and have it, for otherwise you would not have come away beforehand." Agathon and Socrates “It would be a good thing, Agathon, if wisdom were the sort of thing that flows from the fuller of us into the emptier, just by our touching one another, as the water in wine cups flows through a wool thread from the fuller to the emptier. For if wisdom too is like that, then I set a high price on my being placed alongside you, for I believe I shall be filled from you with much fair wisdom. My own may turn out to be a sorry sort of wisdom, or disputable like a dream; but your own is brilliant and capable of much development, since it has flashed out so intensely from you while you are young; and yesterday it became conspicuous among more than thirty thousand Greek witnesses." "You are outrageous, Socrates," Agathon said. "A little later you and I will go to court about our wisdom, with Dionysus as judge, but now first attend to dinner." how water flows Principle at play When they do engage in a contest about love Timeline YEAR Alcibiades' Speech Socrates, he claims, is like “those silenuses that sit in the shops of herm sculptors, the ones that craftsman make holding reed pipes or flutes; and if they are split in two and opened up they show they have images of gods within.” (215b) Alcibiades' Speech You, in my opinion,' I said, 'have proved to be the only deserving lover of mine; and it seems to me that you hesitate to mention it to me. Now I am in this state: I believe it is very foolish not to gratify you in this or anything else of mine—my wealth or my friends—that you need; for nothing is more important to d me than that I become the best possible; and I believe that, as far as I am concerned, there is no one more competent than you to be a fellow helper to me in this. So I should be far more ashamed before men of good sense for not gratifying a man like you than I should be before the many and senseless for gratifying you.' Seduction Scene 'Really, my dear Alcibiades, you're no sucker if what you say about me is really true and there is some power in me e through which you could become better. You must see, you know, an impossible beauty in me, a beauty very different from the fairness of form in yourself. So if, in observing my beauty, you are trying to get a share in it and to exchange beauty for beauty, you are intending to get far the better deal. For you are trying to acquire the truth of beautiful things in exchange for the seeming and opinion of beautiful things; and you really have in mind to exchange "gold for bronze." But blessed one do consider better: Without your being aware of it—I may be nothing. Thought, you know, begins to have keen eyesight when the sight of the eyes starts to decline from its peak; and you are still far from that.' Conclusion conclusion If Socrates were to have sex with Alcibiades, he would perpetuate: 1) the idea that people can make each other wise. impact: prevent Alcibiades from realizing his ignorance about wisdom 2) Alcibiades belief that his physical attractiveness is the most important thing about him impact: the belief could harm Alcibiades as he begins to decline from his physical peak, when “Thought begins to have keen eyesight.” (219a) 3) Socrates would be no better than the sophists who cannot acknowledge the ways in which they are ignorant, and thus, risk self-deception. Advantages Advantages to my account: -Fits with the well-known picture of a Socrates who: 1) proclaims his own ignorance. 2) critiques the Sophists for i. both not acknowledging what they do not know ii. exchanging money for wisdom -Makes explicit the way Plato critiques the customs of his time -Throws into question a vision of Socrates as someone who consistently denies bodily urges -Makes clear that the container model is supposed to function in opposition to the image of pregnancy and birth. Accounts of “Plato’s Appropriation of Reproduction” run these two images together.

Transcript: Personification is giving inanimate, nonliving objects life-like or human characteristics The Raven Summary Stanzas 14-17 Chaos is personified into Tempter to explain the Raven's sudden, menacing, and purposeful presence. The narrator's apprehension is personified into Horror to show he is not merely controlled by his emotions but some other, sinister force. Personification Introduction Edgar Allan Poe, a renowned 19th century author, is considered to be one of the most unique writers to ever grace literature. Poe dove into the deepest realms of darkness and gloom, a style that heavily contrasted from other writers at the time. Poe's style of negativity perfectly reflects his own life, one that was void of happiness. Poe was well acquainted with death as he experienced the passing of almost every one he knew, tearing his heart open, with the blood dripping onto his poems. One of the most known is "The Raven." What is it? Examples of Personification "Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor. “Wretch,” I cried, “thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore; Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!” Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.” “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!— Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore, Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted— On this home by Horror haunted—tell me truly, I implore— Is there—is there balm in Gilead?—tell me—tell me, I implore!” Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.” “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil! By that Heaven that bends above us—by that God we both adore— Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn, It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Clasp a rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore.” Quoth the Raven "Nevermore."" All of us will die someday... The story begins in the home of a narrator, who is reading books while suffering grief for his dead Lenore when he hears a knocking. Eventually, he discovers the sound resonated from a Raven that flew onto a bust. Strangely, the Raven is able to speak the word "Nevermore." Continuously, it responds "Nevermore" every time the narrator inquires for the cure of his misery. The narrator, in frustration, demands the Raven takes its leave, but it stays, along with the narrator's despondency. Atmosphere of the Raven The purpose of for this is to emphasize the sheer desperation and negativity to establish the grief he feels for Lenore. Ironically, personification involves bringing the element of life, yet death is the focused aspect. Possibly, this is to demonstrate the narrator's perplexity and waning sanity. "The Raven" Summary and Analysis by Toby Liu, 5th Period "Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore... On this home by Horror haunted—tell me truly, I implore..." An overwhelming amount of darkness and hopelessness is present in "The Raven. " The death of Lenore causing suffering and despair is immediately recognized as a negative element. Darkness overtakes positivity. The narrator's hope and sanity is crushed when the Raven refutes the provision of any relief for death's painful sting. Stanzas 14-17 demonstrate this. (Lines 2-4, Stanza 16)

Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul has spoken! Leave my loneliness unbroken!- Quit the bust above my door That thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!" Then the bird said "Nevermore" Line 97 Line 97 Be that word our sign of parting bird or fiend! shrieked, upstarting The speaker is becoming increasingly aggitated at the raven for repeating "nevermore". The speaker stands up and screams at the raven (evil spirit) whichever he is, to use "nevermore" as a sign of goodbye and for the raven to leave. Line 98 Line 98 Get thee back onto the tempests and the night's Plutonian shore! The speaker is telling the raven (evil spirit) to go back to the dark, violent underworld that it came from because it was lying about Lenore. When he speaks of Night in reference to the scary power of nature.He also, references Plutonian as the god of the underworld signifying death/darkness and the shore being the depth and vastness of the darkness or evil. Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul has spoken! Line 99 Line 99 The speaker wants the raven to leave and be out of his life. He wants no trace of him left, not even a feather for he is a liar. Leave my loneliness unbroken! Quit the bust above my door! Line 100 Line 100 The speaker is begging the raven to leave him alone so he can wallow in his loneliness and to get off his sculpture/statue above his door. That thy beak from out of my heart, and take thy from off my door Line 101 Line 101 The speaker is telling the raven that he is hurting him mentally, (constanly pestering him saying Lenore is not in Heaven. Thus, he must leave. Then the bird said "Nevermore Line 102 Line 102 The raven said to the speaker he will never leave. Thus, being a torturous rumination of his lost love Lenore and feeling depressed and sorrow for her lost. Nevermore is the only thing that the Raven says to the speaker and is repeated throughout the poem. This may be an indication that the speaker is going insane and is being tortured by his own feelings of devotion and suffering for Lenore.
