“If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can ever warm me, I know that is poetry.” ― Emily Dickinson

                                                                                 "La Rouille"

(156)
Surgeons must be very careful
When they take the knife!
Underneath their fine incisions
Stirs the Culprit - Life!

(202)
“Faith” is a fine invention
For Gentlemen who see!But Microscopes are prudent
In an Emergency!

(89)
A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.”

“Hope” is the thing with feathers - (314)

BY EMILY DICKINSON

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -

That perches in the soul -

And sings the tune without the words -

And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -

And sore must be the storm -

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -

And on the strangest Sea -

Yet - never - in Extremity,

It asked a crumb - of me.

Because I could not stop for Death – (479) 

BY EMILY DICKINSON

Because I could not stop for Death –

He kindly stopped for me –

The Carriage held but just Ourselves –

And Immortality.

We slowly drove – He knew no haste

And I had put away

My labor and my leisure too,

For His Civility –

We passed the School, where Children strove

At Recess – in the Ring –

We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain –

We passed the Setting Sun –

Or rather – He passed Us –

The Dews drew quivering and Chill –

For only Gossamer, my Gown –

My Tippet – only Tulle –

We paused before a House that seemed

A Swelling of the Ground –

The Roof was scarcely visible –

The Cornice – in the Ground –

Since then – 'tis Centuries – and yet

Feels shorter than the Day

I first surmised the Horses' Heads

Were toward Eternity –

My Life had stood - a Loaded Gun (764)

BY EMILY DICKINSON

My Life had stood - a Loaded Gun -

In Corners - till a Day

The Owner passed - identified -

And carried Me away -

And now We roam in Sovreign Woods -

And now We hunt the Doe -

And every time I speak for Him

The Mountains straight reply -

And do I smile, such cordial light

Opon the Valley glow -

It is as a Vesuvian face

Had let it’s pleasure through -

And when at Night - Our good Day done -

I guard My Master’s Head -

’Tis better than the Eider Duck’s

Deep Pillow - to have shared -

To foe of His - I’m deadly foe -

None stir the second time -

On whom I lay a Yellow Eye -

Or an emphatic Thumb -

Though I than He - may longer live

He longer must - than I -

For I have but the power to kill,

Without - the power to die -

Study Guide for Midterms 2020 @beykentunv

Dear Students,

You are free to use your notes, but you are not free to copy-paste material from diverse internet sources.
please "Do not panic!" the midterm is just 20% of your overall grades. 
You are going to have 4 questions in a total of 50 min. That means you can spend time on each question at least 10 min. I think that is quite fair.


So these are the topics that you have to know for the Midterm Exams:

Presentation Skills(these are all from Michael Guests's book):
Conference presentations - writing a report - research paper
self-positioning
dialogic discourse
introduction to Presentations
accent-pronunciation- intonation

Audiovisual:
Marked Speech
Voice-Over
Dubbing
Subtitling for Children

Popular Text Translation:
Humor
Music lyrics
Postmodern Literature
Detective Fiction

wish you good luck
best
