its kinda shitass but i went likeeee bergsonian memory works to undermine stability of time --> subverts romantic values throughout the entire poem to critique the despondency of modern milieu. something like that. i dont entirely get it either HAHA

 

[lunaaaa4403]

its just about the natural versus manmade, urban decay and shit yea, modernism. the moon vs the lamp and the lamp is fucking yapping and spitting everywhere (aka industrialisation) and the moon doesn't even get to talk it's just lurking in the sky

liek urban decay, environmental decal, moral degradation, perpetual motion of time, life destroying the soul... idk tbh i swear its the same poem as preludes

Exactly, both Preludes and Rhapsody are my replacement paragraphs (in case one gets mandated) and I literally just wrote the same stuff for both, just changed up the quotes and analysis

yeah when i was planning the essay i literally copy pasted the rhapsody paragraph and changed 'rhapsody' to 'preludes'

preludes and rhapsody are literally the same poem it was so hard making them sound different when prepping bc they have literally the same things,, fuck off w this oeuvre shit

 

[yourbestfriend]

bro idk if im dumb or how tf do u even answer this question for mod a

"composers make the original texts "live" in new ways through knowledge of the past author and reimagining of values and contexts"
cuz wtf u mean knowledge of past author

omg i literally just had a look at that question. idk if im right at all but i thinks just talk about the context of the past author, e.g. religious influences of shakespeares writing for example?

 

[banigul@30]

Ooh me too those are my main 3

sameee

 

[Hehehe22]

preludes and rhapsody are literally the same poem it was so hard making them sound different when prepping bc they have literally the same things,, fuck off w this oeuvre shit

Exactly, the only difference is that preludes emphasises the circularity of time, whilst rhapsody is just about its inevitability + fancy stuff about lunar synthesis

 

[C2H6O]

Oh yeah ummm I’m praying for Rhapsody, preludes, love song of J Alfred prudrofk anything but magi!

how are you guys hating on magi its the most straightforwardly analysable one

 

[Hehehe22]

how are you guys hating on magi its the most straightforwardly analysable one

Exactlyyy I do Prufrock + Hollow Men + Magi because it shows a progression the best

I kinda feel like replacing prufrock with preludes tho

 

[zodiacocean]

how are you guys hating on magi its the most straightforwardly analysable one

straight up i just dont get it LMAO

 

[lunaaaa4403]

bro same i cant memorise or write that sounds way too smart LMAOO

forget the weird time and memory sucking souls stuff. just do urban decay and talk about the contrast between the manmade (lamp) and the natural (moon). the lamp is given authority and narrates as it sputters and mutters and says this one really fucking long sentence of dialogue. the moon is described in this really ugly (i forgot how- i wanna so something about crooks or wrinkles? idk) as you creep toward the last page of the poem (you can interpret this in whatever way you want - which is good because you can just flip it to answer the question). so the moon is like the victim, the lamp is just stomping over everything and the moon is seen as this evil been with her face crust and evil lunar incantations. idk
