affected the lives of American women in the late
nineteenth century. Women during this time were

workplace. Men, on the other hand, maintained
their role in the job market. However, the jobs of
both men and women in the nineteenth become more

Electronic Music Music Today

Techno. Trance music is my personal favorite
because of the beautiful melodies and build-ups.
Jungle is a form of rap or "break" that has been
sped up and mixed with all types of sounds. House
and Techno are mostly the same; the only
difference being that Techno tends to be harder
and have more horn and whistle sounds. All of
these forms have to be made or created with some
sort of electronic device...

offering an explicit, self-conscious instance of
metonymic closure that underlines rather than
hides the differences between the poem as a poem
and its sources in external experience. At the end
of " Straight-Creek Great Burn, " the
poet sees (or hears) " A whoosh of
