What have I learned?

What is poetry?

Is is the way in which we can express our feelings, thoughts, etc. It also allows us to transmit feelings and emotions and it is the best way to do it.

What do you like most?

What I like the most is the Surrealism, because I loved the way it combines a lot of real forms and images and creates new ones. It also expresses things that sometimes we are so used to them than we forget about their importance or their relevance so that's what I liked the most about it.

Which author or poem do you like the most?

I liked Vicente Aleixandre and the poem I liked the most was "Quiero" from him also.

What is your opinion about contents in general and about the activities you performed?

I don't like Literature actually, because I hate to learn things and theory, I'm someone who likes more things that have a quick solution, but I thing it is important to learn literature also because I have learn a lot of things from it and it helps to open yourself and to know how to express yourself correctly. I like the activities we did during the course, except for the quizz and for the reciting video because we had to learn a very large poem and the record ourselves and it wasn't easy for me to move and to play with my voice, but in general it was a good course.

Literary Devices.

Hi everyone,

This is a poem whe had to create for our class using the literary devices and for this activity I had to work with:

Gabriela Soria Marroquín, Nelly Escobar López and Darién Rodríguez Gutiérrez.

It was as fluffy as a minion

It was as cute as a baby

It was as white as snow

It was fearful as Scooby Doo,

Brave as Superman

It was intelligent as Einstein

Explanation:

·      Anaphora, because it repeats the words: “It was as”.

_   Comparison, because it mentions similarities between two things.

·      Allusion, because it uses Scooby Doo and Superman as references.

·      Hyperbole, because it exaggerates the level of intelligence comparing to Einstein’s.
