Part 1--Shelley and "Ozymandias"

create a short close reading of this poem, focusing on the question: What does the poem seem to be saying about power/tyranny (or perhaps who holds the real power)? You need not comment on every line of the poem, but should be engaging directly with the poem and its language and form.

Part 2-- Keats and "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles"

After reading "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles" and "Elgin Marbles" In Context + Keats's Death.pdf 

Reflect on the experience Keats and others had encountering something so beautiful, and choose something you've encountered (could be a place, piece of art, song, or any object really) that was so beautiful or Sublime as the romantics would say. For something to be sublime, it is so beautiful (or so terrifying) that it is hard to put into words. Share a picture or link (if it is audio/visual) of that object, like Keats's poem, reflect on what emotions it stirs in your and why. 

This should include a couple sentences of reflection about Keats's poem and the context reading, as well as your object and explanation.

Additionally, share one phrase/or aspect of "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles" you found challenging or confusing.

Part 3

Both poems (same poems from part 1 and 2 written by Shelly and Keats)were inspired or tied to an ancient artifact that is currently housed (and was housed then as well) in the British Museum. Shelly uses them to discuss the limits of power and the lastingness of art, while Keats uses the Parthenon Marbles (what they're called now) to consider art and nature's aesthetic beauty, as well as to reflect on his own mortality. Compare and contrast these poems' uses of the ancient past and these artifacts in their discussions of mortality, legacy, and power (other things).

Part 4 Finally

Respond to Shelley's claim that Poets (artists) are "the unacknowledged legislators of the world". Create a 3 song playlist that would support this claim.
