Sexual harassment IS an “everyday experience”, that doesn’t mean we soften the definition, Katie. Roiphe first ruffled feathers with her book The Morning After in the mid-90s which essentially argued that college and date rape statistics had been inflated to encourage fear in young women and that things like catcalling, jokes in poor taste, and unwanted touching weren’t sexual harassment as feminists would have you believe, but rather “everyday experiences”. Katie Roiphe has long been a person of controversy - or as the book jacket likes to call it - a “cultural lightning rod”. ![]() ![]() I rage read this one so you don’t have to. ![]()

![]() We can say it is a kind of improvement from the epics as regards the length and subject matter, but the poem is still wordy and the language used is old compared even to Coleridge’s times. ![]() ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the first poem in this anthology. These two poets laid the foundation stone of what was to become the greatest and most famous literary movements of all, that is ‘Romanticism.’ Coleridge and Wordsworth published their anthology ‘Lyrical Ballads’ in 1798 and it flew right off the shelves.

The primary form of poetry, however, is still the long Epic poems. By this time people are already familiar with Shakespeare and Marlowe’s plays and Milton and Spencer’s poems. It’s late 1790s, and England, that pinnacle of western power, is undergoing a massive change and overturn in its social, economic and political spheres of life. ![]() The Rime of The Ancient Mariner Themes Advertisements Flashback/ The Background: ![]() ![]() Because of this, King Jellyjam had them scrub him and hose him day-in and day-out. Unfortunately for the campers who won the sports and earned the Camp Jellyjam coins they won for each sport, King Jellyjam seemed to get dirty, sweaty, and smelly just as quickly as anyone can clean him.
