POETRY
INTRODUCTION
Explore the theme of love and loss in the poems you have studied, showing how the poets use language and form to express their ideas. Have you ever looked up the word poetry in a dictionary? Poetry is defined as literature in its most intense, most imaginative and most rhythmic forms. For the poet, it can be a way to relieve their stress and just "let go" and for the reader it can be an adventure into the state of mind of the poet. The Romantic Era, during the late 18th and early 19th century, was a period of time in which poets started to express their love and lust for others through poetic forms. This essay will be exploring the way in which poets use language, imagery and form to express their ideas to the reader. Sir Philip Sidney was famous as a poet, a courtier and a soldier and he is still known as a writer of sonnets. He was a very religious man and consequently, religion and faith affected his poetry greatly. One of his famous works is entitled "My True Love Hath My Heart".

MIDDLE
He uses Biblical references, for example, when he says, "I would/Love you ten years before the Flood;/And you should, if you please, refuse/Till the conversion of the Jews", he is talking about the story of Noah's Arc and he is basically saying that if you refuse my love it will not matter, because my love for you is eternal and never ending (the Jews will never convert). The character is showing off, but he could also be putting on an act to show her that he is cultured and sophisticated - this could be another attempt to win her heart and to get her to sleep with him. Marvell portrays the characters eternal love for her by using the hyperbole, "My vegetable love should grow/Vaster than empires, and more slow." Again, the character is showing off the fact that he is well educated, by mentioning his knowledge of the Roman Empire which was extremely strong at the time.

NOVEL

INTRODUCTION

A novel is a long narrative, normally in prose, which describes fictional characters and events, usually in the form of a sequential story.

The genre has also been described as possessing "a continuous and comprehensive history of about two thousand years". This view sees the novel's origins in Classical Greece and Rome, medieval, early modern romance, and the tradition of the novella. The latter, an Italian word used to describe short stories, supplied the present generic English term in the 18th century. Ian Watt, however, in The Rise of the Novel (1957) suggests that the novel first came into being in the early 18th century,

Miguel de Cervantes, author of Don Quixote, is frequently cited as the first significant European novelist of the modern era; the first part of Don Quixote was published in 1605.

DEFINING A GENRE:

A novel is a long, fictional narrative which describes intimate human experiences. The novel in the modern era usually makes use of a literary prose style, and the development of the prose novel at this time was encouraged by innovations in printing, and the introduction of cheap paper, in the 15th century.

The present English (and Spanish) word for a long work of prose fiction derives from the Italian novella for "new", "news", or "short story of something new", itself from the Latin novella, a singular noun use of the neuter plural of novellus, diminutive of novus, meaning "new".Most European languages use the word "romance" (as in French, Dutch, Russian, Slovene, Serbo-Croatian, Romanian, Danish, Swedish and Norwegian "roman"; German "Roman"; Portuguese "romance" and Italian "romanzo") for extended narratives.

INTRODUCTION :
Simple Present (Present Simple) – Introduction Simple present is also called present simple.The simple present expresses an action in the present taking place once, never or several times. It is also used for actions that take place one after another and for actions that are set by a timetable or schedule. The simple present also expresses facts in the present.
TYPES OF PRESENT TENSE:
SIMPLE PRESENT:
The simple present tense is the one which we use when an action is happening right now, or when it happens regularly (or unceasingly, which is why it's sometimes called present indefinite). The simple present tense is formed by using the root form or by adding ‑s or ‑es to the end, depending on the person.
Simple Present Forms:
MOST VERBS:
Most verbs conjugate like the verb "run" below. Notice how you add an "s" to third-person forms. Third-person negative forms and third-person questions are made using "does."

PAST TENSE

INTRODUCTION:

                    The passé composé (compound past tense) is used to refer to an action or event that began and was completed at a particular moment of time in the past. Two elements are required to form thepassé composé: a helping verb (either avoir or être) and a past participle (usually the ‐ed form of an English verb).

The passé simple is a literary past tense, most often used in writing, and also refers to an action or event that was completed in the past. The passé anterieur,which is very limited in use, is the compound form of the passé simple. (The passé simple of the correct helping verb is followed by the past participle of the verb indicating the action.)

WHAT IS THE PAST TENSE?

                   The past tense is used to describe or indicate an action that began in the past. Depending on how we form the past tense, it might describe actions that happened or were completed in the past, were occurring at the same time as something else in the past, or continued to happen until or near the present time.

                         There are four forms of the past tense that can accomplish these tasks. We will give a brief summary of each below. To learn more about each of them, you can go to the appropriate section. st often used in writing, and also refers to an action or event that was completed in the past. The passé anterieur,which is very limited in use, is the compound form of the passé simple. (The passé simple of the correct helping verb is followed by the past participle of the verb indicating the action.)
