Cowper's 'Task': Structure and Influence

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Priestman, Martin, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, William Cowper () is one of the most interesting of late eighteenth-century poets. His poetry is notable as heralding a simpler and more natural style than the classical style of Pope and his imitators, and thus prefiguring the profound innovations of Romanticism. Though Cowper himself has attracted attention as either a religious maniac or a lovably domestic character, his most important poetry has been neglected. This book, which was originally published in , is the first complete critical study of his major long poem The Task. Furthermore, by carefully examining the procedures whereby an autobiographical element is introduced into the poem, the author shows how the concerns and techniques of The Task influenced the major autobiographical poem of the Romantic period, Wordsworth's The Prelude. The connection between the two poems had often been acknowledged in passing, but prior to this work The Task had not been surveyed in sufficient detail to establish the full weight and importance of this connection.

Developing Inquiry for Learning: Reflecting Collaborative

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ovens, Peter / Wells, Frances / Wallis, Patricia, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Developing Inquiry for Learning shows how university tutors can help students to improve their abilities to learn and to become professional inquirers. Participation in higher education is widening and students have increasingly diverse needs and learning styles and many bring powerful expectations that learning tends to be a passive process. University tutors required to teach ever larger groups are finding increasing difficulty to meet these needs and help people to become more independently motivated and more collaborative learners. In the innovative and proven approach developed by the authors however, students are guided to perform action research into their learning practices, actions and reflections. Using a rolling programme of cyclical inquiries and whole group a conferencesa (TM) on improving learning, students write a patchesa (TM) on learning development which are then shared across the year group online. Each studenta (TM)s cumulative set of patches, together with their regular reflective writing, provide the basis for assembling a composite final assignment, a a patchwork texta (TM), for assessment. This style of curriculum and assessment organization encourages regular peer feedback and formative assessment, as part of the whole module process, to build personal confidence within students both as learners and as professionals. While providing teaching materials and examples of studentsa (TM) responses, including the use of Blogs, Wikis and Discussion Boards, the book also analyses and theorises on the deeper characteristics of the difficulties being addressed, using several theoretical perspectives. Readers are thus equipped to adopt, adapt and experiment with their own developments in their teaching and curricula with relevant frameworks of theory and values.
