Two of the more engaging books of the Romantic
Era, Defoe's Robinson Crusoe and Jonathan Swifts
Gulliver's Travels, are very similar. Both
describe heros travels to the strange places and
adventures among outlandish peoples. They both
reflect the literary need of the time to, at least

Christabel by Samuel Taylor Coleridge is a poem
that precious itself of being ambiguous. This is

as a larger poem and said to have the complete
plot in mind. However at some point he gave up his
idea of writing it complete and published the
first two parts. The highlights of these two parts
is what I pretend to comment on inthe following
text. The thing that called my attention the most

20 Th Century Light In August

a mans future is inherent in that man -Faulkner
Faulkner's Light in August is a metaphor. In fact
it is many metaphors, almost infinitely many. It

surpass Faulkner in this regard. So obviously it
