    Hardy and Longley for sure! more tan likely that crazy pyscho Plath !

    I reckon Bishop will come up personally, and i'd probably agree with the other suggestions aswell!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭whassupp2


    While yeats is my favourite, i dont think he'll come up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭casanova_kid


    Hardy, Longley, Bishop and Donne i'd guess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭whassupp2


    Hardy, Hopkins, Plath and Longley

    I really like plath, I find her poetry excellent. She suffered form depression, that doesn't make her a crazy psycho.

    Plaths a moany bitch.i like Bishop myself!

    If you do get yeats and you are doing history.It is really easy to get full marks in poetry section.Prob wont get him though.

    Personally I'd love Yeats to come up!!
    Though I think Longley will come up cos I heard its his last year on the course.
    And prolly Plath, knowing my luck. I just cant like her poetry!!

    *long drawn out sigh*

    Hardy

    It's Bishops last year on the course also, and she hasn't been up since 01. Neither has Longley.

    Hardy, Bishop, Longley, Hopkins is what I reckon.

    Can't stand Plath, havent looked at her once since we covered her in class, I can't stand her poetry!

    I think Bishop is the easiest on the course by miles, she says exactly what she means, doesnt waffle so no-one has a clue what she's on about without notes!
