What is surprising is they focused on one poem by Coleridge while our blog focused more on him overall. Right now their blog is still developing but I think you should follow them. Their group consists Maria Tobon, Angela Ly, Jordan Currier, and Kerri Peetz. Their from Period 3 on A Day.
By focusing on one poem I think that they did a very good interpretation and understanding of what the poem is. When we covered it in class we didn't go very deep into what and why the poem was written that far, in our class anyway. I mean the iconic image of the albatross hanging around the ship captains neck still sits in my brain. Yes there is the conversation on what we really think it is but seeing another classes understanding is really awesome.
There is an awesome post on the albatross. Angela focuses on how the albatross is a major part of the poem and that how the death of albatross is the whole reason for the poem, it is what sets the poem into motion. I like that she uses a lot of metaphoric and symbolic analysis because with this poem, a lot of the this poem is really based on the universal law of karma and she nails this on the dot.
I strongly recommend anyone to go see the blog by these students because they have not only captured what Coleridge was focusing on in this poem. To think that four people could produce something that has such a compressive understanding of the poem and what Coleridge was trying to convey. If you enjoyed our blog on Coleridge then you will definitely want to go visit their's.
My final note is I wish our blog would of focused more on one poem or or a couple poems rather than on a whole because I feel we could of not only had a well rounded blog but a more concise one as well.
