Assignment for April 21, 2020

We'll be covering the Modernists for the next few weeks. Modernism arose after WWI. Artists were disaffected by the war and by industrialization, and they radically altered how literature was written and how it was read.
They broke from the older model of writing, and expected their audiences to interpret text, rather than explaining everything to them. They used subtext and stream-of-consciousness, among other devices.
Here are two links for poem analysis for the Modernist era.
The docs for both are due to be completed before Monday, April 27 at 2 p.m.
