2 ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES


You will find discussions and activities on 10 of the poems from the prescribed list in Tutorial


Letter 501 on pages 5-51. You should read the discussions and work through these activities


before attempting the activities in this tutorial letter. The activities for the remaining 10 poems


appear in this tutorial letter. Please work through these activities to guide you in studying these


poems in preparation for the examination.


IMPORTANT:


The questions below and the activities in Tutorial Letter 501 should be considered points of


departure for your readings of the poems.


While some of the questions that appear in assignments and exams might resemble some of


the questions and concerns set out below, others might not. In other words, you should be able


to engage in your own critical analysis of each poem. The study of poetry cannot be rushed and


you should be prepared, in some instances, to spend a number of hours working through a


single poem.


Remember to read the section entitled ‘Analysing poetry’ that appears at the beginning of


Seasons Come to Pass (pages 11-29). You should pay particular attention to the ways of


reading poetry that are evidenced on pages 24 and 27 of the anthology.


2.1 ‘Stop All the Clocks’ by W.H. Auden


Read through ‘Stop All the Clocks’ by W.H. Auden on page 169 of Seasons Come to Pass, and


then read through the supporting notes provided below the poem. If you find words and


concepts that you are unfamiliar with, consult a dictionary and Introduction to English Literary


Studies.


1. The first two stanzas of this poem present as images of mourning. How does this set the


tone of the poem?


2. Analyse the rhyme scheme of the poem. What effect does this have on how we read the


poem? (For the second part of this question, you might want to look specifically at the


third stanza, and how the rhythm and rhyme achieve a particular effect in line 12).

3. The poem explores the intensity and immensity of love, but it seems to be about the very


absence of love. In a brief analysis of the images that appear in the final stanza, explain


how the use of hyperbole develops and emphasises this absence. (Another word for


hyperbole is exaggeration.)


4. Consult a dictionary to find the meaning of the word ‘elegy’. Then, utilise your answers to


questions 1-3 to write a short essay about why ‘Stop All the Clocks’ can be considered an


example of an elegiac poem.


2.2 ‘Talking in Bed’ by Philip Larkin


Read through ‘Talking in Bed’ on page 192 of Seasons Come to Pass, and then work through


the guidelines provided below.


1. Look at the title of the poem. Does this give you any clue as to what the poem is about?


Does what the title suggests occur in the poem? Write a paragraph in which you give


reasons for your answer.


2. Identify an example of repetition in line four and explain its effect.


3. Read the definition of ‘tone’ on page 47 of Introduction to English Literary Studies. What


is the tone created in lines 4 to 7? Identify words in this section that helped you in


determining the tone. Write a paragraph in which you describe how these words relate to


the title of the poem.


4. What is the setting of lines 8 to 12? How do you know this?


5. Look at the last three lines of the poem. What kinds of words does the speaker want to


speak to his or her partner? Why is this difficult?


2.3 ‘In the shadow of Signal Hill’ by Essop Patel


Read through ‘In the Shadow of Signal Hill’ on page 208 of Seasons Come to Pass. Also read


the brief biography of Essop Patel given above the poem and the explanatory note underneath.


Work through the guidelines given below.
