Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 18   AIL 1752 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Reading the Band for Practice

Captions available

The idea

Read one Pope couplet and one Lyrical Ballads poem side by side. Ten minutes gives the band's whole division in a form that stays. That is more useful than reading either writer at length, because the contrast is what the orientation consists of.

In practice

One couplet, one ballad, side by side.

Where people slip

The contrast is the lesson.
