4. Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The composition of “Kubla Khan”:
Gets injured
Hangs out in a farmhouse nearby
Takes some laudanum for the pain
Reads for awhile:
"Here the Khan Kubla commanded a palace to be built, and a stately garden thereunto. And thus ten miles of fertile ground were inclosed with a wall.“
Dreams he sees this grand Mongolian dynastic palace and writes a poem about it (several hundred lines)
Wakes up; immediately begins writing down every detail of the vivid dream – poem within a poem #Inception
Interrupted by some d-bag for whatever reason
As is the way with dreams (and dreams within dreams?), when he gets back an hour later, it’s now a vague recollection

40. dulcimer: skinny guitar with no neck; played on lap
41. Mount Abora: mountain in Ethiopia referred to as “True Paradise under the Ethiop Line” in Paradise Lost (Milton)

6. Portrait pre-writing (7 mins)
In your composition notebook, write the following:
The meaning of the work as a whole. You should have the novel completed by now, but if you don't, you can still compile some larger insight.
Underneath that: write ten details from the text that support that meaning. Bullet points are fine.
When you finish, find your top 5 prompt years for the novel on Google Classroom.
Star/circle your absolute favorite.
