Peter Davidson, who edited Frost’s collection North of Boston notes: Frost “lost two children to death in early childhood, another to insanity, another to death after childbirth, and still another (after the death of [his] wife, Elinor) to suicide.” Given the personal tragedies Frost experienced, it seems inevitable that a strain of grief and bitterness would appear in his poetry.

2.What do you think the speaker means when he says: “‘Three foggy mornings and one rainy day/Will rot the best birch fence a man can build.’”(96-7)? He’s referring to something more than literal fog and rain and fence—what might it be? Based on your own experience(s), is this a fair statement? Explain.

Alfred Tennyson’s poem, “Charge of the Light Brigade,” is a poem about what has been called “either the most heroic or disastrous episodes in British military history.” It focuses on an event in the Crimean War (1853-1856), but might be applied to wartime even today. Select one of the following prompts and explain your position with support from the poem itself.
1. Defend this position: This poem glorifies war.
2. Defend this position: This poem does not glorify war.

Here are topics for the research proposal :

1. What is the significance of honor in Much Ado About Nothing? How is female honor different from that of male honor? In the end, does honor do more harm or more good?

2. How do the changes made by Kenneth Branagh in his 1993 film version of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing change the nature of the play? (Or, if you think they don’t, explain why not). This topic might look at the political environment of the play versus the movie, or might discuss the nuances of Hero’s character that may or may not be lost in Branagh’s film.

3. Explain the importance of “noting” in this play. You can focus on one kind of “noting” or you can focus on one subtopic in the play and show how “noting” occurs on several levels. Review the introduction to Much Ado for more details.

4. Here are some additional ideas for Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing: https://coffin.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/maan-essay2009.pdf

5. In August Wilson’s Gem of the Ocean, Citizen and Caesar are both responsible for a man’s death. Is either of them guiltier than the other?

6. What effects does slavery still have on the characters in Gem of the Ocean, some forty years after its abolition? Why is this important?

7. What is Aunt Ester’s role in August Wilson’s play, and why has she selected Black Mary to replace her when the time comes? Wilson saw this character as central to his play—why?
