Question 8 of 10

8. Question

3 point(s)

Read the following paragraph and choose 3 true statements.

Shelley’s ‘Ozymandias’ begins as a metastory about a non-specific time and place, ‘an antique land’, which paints the poem not as being based on personal experience but as a story within a story, possibly reflecting Shelley’s recounts of books he read about ‘antique lands’ such as Egypt; the framed story or metastory creates a sense of distance and obscurity about Ozymandias because we are thrown into a ‘vast’ and abstract space which makes it difficult for the reader to envision what this ‘antique land’ actually looked like. This sense of obscurity appears to reflect the obscurity of the title, ‘Ozymandias’ – the Greek name for Rameses II, which Shelley had possibly chosen because it may not have been well-known to the general public of his time, but only to those who studied Greek. Consequently, the multi-layered story and obscure Greek title appear to erase the grandiosity of the Ramases kingdom, thus driving home the emptiness of Ramases’ boasts and the idea that in the grand scheme of time and nature, tyrannical power only lasts for a fleeting moment.

Shelley structures Ozymandias to begin with a metastory.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The technique Shelley uses to begin the poem creates a sense of distance between the reader and the 'antique land'.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Shelley wanted to demonstrate that oppressive rulers only enjoy power for a brief moment in time.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Shelley wanted to demonstrate that oppressive rulers only enjoy power for a long time.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The technique Shelley uses to begin the poem creates a sense of closeness between the reader and the 'antique land'.

3 point(s)

Read the following paragraph and choose 3 true statements.

In contrast, Browning’s ‘My Last Duchess’ creates surprise and drama by beginning in media res, forcing us to catch up with the speaker; the reader ‘stumbles’ upon a crucial moment where the Duke begins to reveal his troubling sense of reality. The Duke’s first line, ‘That’s my last duchess on the wall’, exudes an unsettling sense of objectification; the possessive pronoun, ‘my’, is also repeated in various forms throughout the poem and becomes a revealing trait of the Duke’s controlling nature as well as an expression of his inherent obsession with power; additionally, his second line, ‘looking as if she were alive.’, introduces the subjunctive mood, indicating he takes pleasure in imagining her alive, yet, ironically, suggesting she is dead, which is echoed by the ironic terminal caesura after ‘alive’; his power is expressed in the pleasure he gains by controlling her through death and the representation of that control through his fresco painting of her.

Browning structures My Last Duchess to begin in medias res.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The technique Browning uses to begin the poem creates surprise and drama, forcing us to catch up to the speaker.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The painting illustrates the Duke's extreme and morbid obsession with power.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Browning structures My Last Duchess to begin with a metastory.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The painting illustrates the Duke's kindness and compassion towards his wife.
