hello,

I need some help. I' m going to have an important exam in two weeks. And therefore I have to learn very fast.:flare:
Does anyone of you have essays on the following topics, alternatively know, where I can download for free?
Here are the topics:
1. Similarities and distinction in Wordsworth's and Coleridge's thinking (according to religion, nature & man)
2. Blake's attitude towards the church
3. Imaginatation and symbolism in Romantic poetry
4. Childhood in Blake's, Wordsworth's and Coleridge's poetry.
I really hope that anyone can help its very urgent.

Thank you so much

I wouldn't even consider giving you, or anyone else, an essay that I had written, but, if you have read several poems by each, then such essay would be easy to write. The first topic for example, while Wordsworth thought highly of religion, moral standards, and human institutions and was quite moral, Coleridge was no enthusiast of moral standards, and his attitude toward religion was uncertain but dubious. I would have to look up which poems of Wordsworth to use, but Coleridge's mockery of moral standards is clear (at least to me) in Kubla Khan, and his doubtful attitude toward religion can be seen in Christabel and the Rime of the Ancient mariner. Contrast those with Wordsworth's description of a church in one of his poems (I don't recall which), the building is a symbol of the institution.

If you are comfortab;le with Blake, that topic might work, but the topic about symbolism and imagination is too broad.
