Sinopsis

"Meter Mechanics" explores the foundational elements that shape poetry across various cultures, revealing the hidden architecture of verse. It highlights how understanding rhythm and sound enhances our appreciation of poetic artistry. Intriguingly, poets throughout history have used techniques ranging from classical quantitative meters to accentual-syllabic systems, demonstrating meter's adaptability.

 
The book argues that a thorough grasp of metrical systems offers deeper insights into a poet's intentions and a work's cultural context. The book uniquely combines rigorous analysis with a broad, comparative approach. It guides readers through fundamental concepts like foot, line, and stanza, then examines the historical development of meter in diverse poetic traditions. Finally, it focuses on the practical application of metrical analysis, demonstrating how to identify and interpret metrical patterns. 

 
This journey allows readers to understand how metrical choices contribute to a poem's overall meaning and effect, enriching their engagement with language arts and poetry.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold" by John le Carré presents a chilling narrative of espionage during the Cold War. It follows Alec Leamas, a weary British agent, who is seemingly put out to pasture but is actually drawn into a complex and dangerous operation, designed to undermine an East German intelligence officer, Mundt. The story explores themes of betrayal, manipulation, and the moral ambiguities of the spy world. Leamas's interactions with other characters reveal the cynical nature of espionage, where individuals are treated as expendable tools. The narrative builds suspense through a series of deceptions and double-crosses, exposing a world of political machinations and personal sacrifice. The main plot involves a plan to eliminate Fiedler and publicly rehabilitate Mundt.

    Major Trade-Offs - The...

    An eye-opening look at the relationship between students’ majors and their entry-level jobs.Humanities majors are used to answering the question, “So, what are you going to do with that degree?” The common misconception is that students in humanities programs don’t learn any useful skills for the real world. In Major Trade-Offs, Corey Moss-Pech argues that not only do humanities majors learn real-world skills, but they actually use them when they graduate. Despite this discrepancy, graduates with so-called practical degrees like business and engineering are much more likely to find employment, and they earn higher salaries. Why do we belittle a liberal arts education despite the valuable skills that students acquire during their studies?
    
    Major Trade-Offs addresses this question by following students from different majors as they enter the workforce. Moss-Pech conducted nearly 200 interviews with roughly ninety students from four majors at a large Midwestern university: engineering, business, English, and communications. He follows these students through their senior years, chronicling their internships and the support their universities provide in helping them pursue their career paths. Graduates from practical majors entered the labor market successfully, typically through structured internship programs. However, many ended up in entry-level jobs that were largely clerical and didn’t necessarily require a degree to perform. Liberal arts majors rarely accessed structured internships and were largely left to carve out their own paths, but used their degree skills once they secured a job. This challenges the popular myths about the “marketability” of these different majors and offers a new vision for the future of higher education.
     
    
    Major Trade-Offs calls on colleges and universities to advocate for liberal arts majors, leveling the playing field for students as they plan for entry-level work.
