2. Narrative Poems tells us a story. (Series of Events) A. Ballad A. Very short story. B. Folk product-regular people. C. Simple plot and language. D. Has dialogue. Example: Ballata 5 Guido Cavalcanti (1255-1300) And my heart trembles for the grace she weareth, While far in my soul’s deep the sighs astir Speak thus: "Look well! For if thou look on her, Then shalt thou see her virtue risen in heaven."
3. Narrative Poems tells us a story. (Series of Events) B. Metrical Tale 1.) short story in verse 2.) more descriptions 3.) poet expresses attitudes and opinions Example: "Evangeline," by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow THIS is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks, Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight, Stand like Druids of eld, with voices sad and prophetic, Stand like harpers hoar, with beards that rest on their bosoms. Loud from its rocky caverns, the deep-voiced neighboring ocean Speaks, and in accents disconsolate answers the wail of the forest.
4. Narrative Poems tells us a story. (Series of Events) C. Epic extremely long. (Novel length story in verse.) about national heroes, kings, great warriors, etc. elevated tone, lofty style. Language is highly poetic. Example: Odyssey by Homer “Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; but do what he might he could not save his men, for they perished through their own sheer folly in eating the cattle of the Sun-god Hyperion; so the god prevented them from ever reaching home. Tell me, too, about all these things, O daughter of Jove, from whatsoever source you may know them.”
