Poetry- Metre

I've found this website which describes well the different types of metre. Just thought it could be useful for everyone as it is a difficult concept to grasp (well for me anyway).

Rossetti Easter Reading

If you are a big fan of the link from  the last post, have a look at this one too. It has lots of articles and useful information about Rossetti:

Useful Rossetti website

This website is absolutely brilliant for studying Christina Rossetti. It not only has a wealth of background context, but it also has detailed synopses and analysis of the poems in the anthology. You could pretty much teach yourself the poems with the content they provide.

Use the drop-down menu at the top of the page to access the different sections.

CliffsNotes

www.cliffsnotes.com

This website is especially good for summarising and analysing the individual chapters. There's even a character map for all the visual learners! Is it wrong to find this exciting? I think the English blog has gone to my head.

You can find both novels under "literature".
