Dream Deferred

What happened to a dream deferred? Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore -And then ran?

Does it stink like rotten meat? Or crust and sugar over -like a syrupy sweet? Maybe it just sags like a heavy load. Or does it explode?

(Langston Hughes)

The year

A storm of white petals, Buds throwing open baby fists Into hands of broad flowers.

Red roses running upward, Clambering to the clutches of life Soaked in crimson.

Rabbles of tattered leaves Holding golden flimsy hopes Against the tramplings Into the pits and gullies.

Hoarfrost and silence:

Only the muffling

Of winds dark and lonesome -

Great lullabies to the long sleepers. (Carl Sandburg)


Assignment 9. Define the main stylistic notions(style, norm, form, text, context, speech, writing, expressive means, stylistic devices, im­age), reviewing the followingpassages:

1) Still ran Dingo - Yellow-Dog Dingo - always hungry, grinning like a
rat-trap, never getting nearer, never getting farther, - ran after Kangaroo.

He had to!

Still ran Kangaroo - Old Man Kangaroo. He ran through the ti-trees: he ran through the mulga; he ran through the long grass; he ran through the short grass; he ran through the Tropics of Capricorn and Cancer; he ran till his hind legs ached.

He had to!

Still ran Dingo - Yellow-Dog Dingo - hungrier and hungrier, grinning like a horse-collar, never getting nearer, never getting farther; and they came to the Wollgong River.

Now, there wasn't any bridge, and there wasn't any ferry-boat, and Kangaroo didn't know how to get over; so he stood on his legs and hopped.

He had to!

(From R. Kipling's Just So Stories)

2) Crabbed age and youth cannot live together:
Youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care;

Youth is like summer morn, age like winter weather; Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short; Youth is nimble, age is lame: Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; Youth is wild, and age is tame. Age, 1 do abhore thee, youth I adore thee; Oh! My Love, my Love is young. (W. Shakespeare)

3) Уночі палало село. З неба злякано дивився вниз поблідлий місяць,
і, ховаючись у хмари, тікав, і з жахом озирався назад, на полум'я. Дере­
ва хитались і, від страху наїживши голі віти, ніби силкувались втекти; а
вітер гасав над полум'ям, зривав з його головні, шпурляв ними в сусідні
хати, розкидав і лютував, свавільно і безпардонно. Побіля ж полум'я
бігали, метушились маленькі, безсилі люди, ламали руки й кричали до
неба, до місяця, до полум'я. Кричали до Бога, до чорта, до людей. По-


лум'я ж росло, вітер грався ним, місяць з жахом тікав серед хмар, і не було порятунку ні від неба, ні від чорта, ні від людей.

(From V. Vynnychenko's Student)

4) 3 журбою радість обнялась...

В сльозах, як в жемчугах, мій сміх, І з дивним ранком ніч злилась, І як мені розняти їх?!

В обіймах з радістю журба. Одна летить, друга спиня... І йде між ними боротьба, І дужчий хто - не знаю я...

(Alexander Oles')

5) Governorship of Coventry Island. - H. M. S. Yellowjack, Command­
er Jaunders, has brought letters and papers from Coventry Island. H. E. Sir
Thomas Liverseege had fallen a victim to the prevailing fever at Swamp-
town. His loss is deeply felt in the flourishing colony. We hear that the Gover­
norship has been offered to Colonel Rawdon Crawley, С. В., a distinguished
Waterloo officer. We need not only men of acknowledged bravery, but men
of administrative talents to superintend the affairs of our colonies; and we
have no doubt that the gentleman selected by the Colonial Office to fill the
lamented vacancy which has occurred at Coventry Island is admirably calcu­
lated for the post which he is about to occupy.

(From Vanity Fair by W. M. Thackeray)

"Посада губернатора на острові Ковентрі.

Військовий корабель "Єллоуджек" під командою капітана Джандерса привіз листи й газети з острова Ковентрі. Його вельможність сер Томас Ліверсідж став жертвою малярії, поширеної в Мочартауні. Квітуча ко­лонія сумує з приводу цієї тяжкої втрати. Є чутка, що посаду губерна­тора запропоновано полковникові Родону Кроулі, кавалерові ордена Лазні, офіцерові, що відзначився в битві під Ватерлоо. Для керування нашими колоніями нам потрібні люди, які не тільки засвідчили свою хоробрість, а й мають хист адміністратора, і ми не сумніваємося, що міністерство колоній вибрало гідну людину для заміщення вакансії, яка звільнилася внаслідок сумної події на острові Ковентрі."

(Translated by Olga Senyuk)
