Notes etc. - Do not post copyright material

22-02-2010 12:51amSo we've been saying this for a while now that we should start a thread to put notes/phrases etc.I finally took it upon myself to start one seeing as we've been putting up a lot of notes here and there on different things so it's time to get them all together in one place beause I will never be able to find them come June.
So just throw up anything that you think will be useful on any of the JC subjects; English, Irish, French, religion, business, geography, whatever.
It's also another reason to be on boards - what it is study:p.Tagged:4

So I suppose I'll get the ball rolling then with the first notes I've found lying round.
Dulce Et Decorum Est - Wilfred Owen
-The title is taken from an old Latin saying "How sweet and honourable it is to die for one's country", as qouted at the end of the poem.
-During WW2 it was considered deeply unpatriotic to criticise y
the war effort.Wilfred Owen who witnessed a soldier dying, relives his death in a realistic manner.Owen uses this title in an unusual way.The entire poem disprovess and undermines what the title suggests.
Theme: War, death as a consequence and the harsh realiy surrounding it.Owen provided us with a realistic view of war, not an ideal view.
Stanza 1: -The soldiers are compared to "old beggars under sacks", "coughing like hags".This is an effective use of similes to hghlight the apearance and unhealthy conditions the soldiers are forced to endure.
-An image of tired, worn-out and limping soldiers is presented in the following lines.
-We heard sounds of the battlefield through Owen's description of the "hoots of tired outstripped Five-Nines".However, the soldiers are "deaf" to such sounds because they have become accustomed to the battlefield.
Stanza 2: -Panic and cinfusion dominates this stanza.The soldiers struggle to put on their gas masks and helmets during a gas explosion.Owen creates a sense of panic throughthe use of language :"fumbling", "clumsy", "stumbling","floundering" and the outcry "Gas!Gas!Quick boys!".
-Unforunately, one particulat soldier fails to fit his gas mask on time.H e yells out in desperation "like a man in fire or lime"
-Owen compares the green gas to "a green sea".The soldiers find it difficult to see through the "misty panes and thick green light".This soldier is "drowning" in this "green sea" inhaling toxic gas.
- The speaker in this poem endures terrible nightmares and feels helpless.Owen uses strong verbs to highlight the panic and indignity of dying on the battlefield : "plunges", "gutttering", "choking", "drowning"
Stanza 3: - The speaker asks us to try to understand the grotesque aspect of war.In his "smothering dreams" he sees the dying soldier £flung" into a wagon.There is nothing sweet and honourable about the manner in which his body is treated.The soldier is at the point of death and Owen is haunted by the sight of his "white eyes writhing in his face".
- Owen continues to describe the sounds of this man dying, "the blood come gargling from the froth-corrupted lings".This is a realistic depiction of a soldier dying.
- Owen uses two similes to highlight this "obscene" and ""bitter" moment of death.
- In the final lines Owen pleads to us in a passionate tone not to lie about the reality of war to those who are innocent and nauve in their view of war.
Use of similes: 1."like old beggars under sacks"
2."coughing like hags"
3."floundering like a man in fire or lime"
4."As under a green sea"
5."his hanging face like a devil's sick of sin"
6."obscenc as cancer"
7."bitter as the cud of vile incurable sores on innocent tongues"
Sound Effects: 1. onomatopeia (e.g. "trudge", "plunges", "guttering", "choking", "drowning")
- This sound effect is used in order to create a sense of ar more vividly.
- Sounds of the battlefield and sounds of the soldier dying are conveyed through onomatopoeic words.
2.Use of exclamation marks and capital letters ("Gas!Gas!Quick Boys!)
- adds to sense of panic/confusion
- emphasises
Title: -This poem has an interesting title, due to it's Latin origin and because the poem itself actually disproves and undermines the title.
- Owen delibberately uses the first part of the old Latin saying - which translates as "How sweet and honourable it is".This translation doesn't give us and explanation and we are forced to read the entire poem in order to leard of the whole Lain saying - "to die for one's country"
- A poet usually uses a title to reinforce the theme of the poem.However, in this case, the poet uses a title that actaully contradicts the central message of the poem.0 -
Nice one Aine! I'll put some up tomorrow!0

The Lake Isle of Innisfree - William Butler Yeats
Stanza 1: - Yeats longs to return to the island of Innisfree and live there by himself
- He wshes to live a simole and selfsufficient life where he will build a small cabin "from clay and wattle made" and grow his own food and keep bees for their honey.
Stanza 2: - He describes the tranquility of the island.The mornings are peaceful and filled with the sounds of crickets chirping.In the evenings he hears the flapping of the linnet's wings as they fly around the island.
- At noon the purple heather glows in the sunlight while at night the glittering stars are reflected in the water.
Stanza 3: - The island of Innisfree is always in his mind and in his heart : "I hear it in the deep heart's core"
- He is always imagining the pleasant sounds o fit's waters : "for always night and day I hear it lapping with low sounds by the shore"
- The thoughts of Innisfree is especially important to the poet when he is living in the city.The cold, grey concrete makes him long to return to the tranquility the island has to offer.
Nature: - The poem celebrates the beauty of the island.It's alive with the sounds of nature.The poet refers to the chirping of the crickets, the buzzing of the bees, the flapping of the linnet's wings and the peaceful lapping of the water by the shore.
- The poem also celebrates the visual aspect of the islan'd natural environment.The poet describes the glitter of the starlight and moonloght reflected in the water and the purple glow of the heather in the sunlight.
Sound Effects: The use of sound effects enhances the sound and meaning of the poem.Sound effects mirror the beautiful sounds of the island.
1.Alliteration
- "a hive for the honey bee"
- "live alone in the bee loud glade"
- "lake water lappig with low sounds by the shore"
2.Assonance
- "I will arise and go now and go to Innisfree"
- "cricket sings"

- "and evening full of the linnet's wings"
- "nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee"
- "a small cabin build there of clay and wattles made"
- "low sounds by the shore"
- "I hear it in the deep hearts' core"
- "and live alone in the bee loud glade"
- "for peace comes dropping slow"
3.Onomtopoeia

- sound dominates this poem.
- Rhyme- use of end rhyme, regular rhyming pattern
- All of these sound effects add to our enjoyment and understanding of the poem.

What kind of person is the poet?
- loves and appreciates nature
- longs for solitude and a peaceful existence
- private person who doesn't like the limelight
- man of independence
- resourceful and self-sufficent

Sample answer on an tÓzónAn tÓzón le Máire Áine Nic-Ghearailt
Rinne mé stáideár ar an dán "An tÓzón" le Máire Áine Nic-Ghearailt. Is é an mothúcháin/téama atá roghnaithe agam ná dúlra/nadúr.
Phioc mé an téama seo mar tá sé le fáil ó thus deireadh sa dán. Is dán é seo a bhainean leis an timpeallacht agus na fadhbanna atá aige faoi láthair. Usáideann an file pearsantú sa dán. Tá an t-Ózón ag caint.
"Mise an tÓzón."
Tá fearg air mar tá sé i mbaol. Rinne Dia an tÓzón chun an cine daonna a chosaint ón ngriain.
"Chun tusa a shaoradh ó iomarca gréine."
Déireann an tÓzón go bhfúil daoine mí-chúramach, Is cuma leo cén dochar/damáiste dhéanann siad don timpeallacht.
Bá coir dúinn bheith níos cúramaí leis an timpeallacht.
"Aire a thabhairt, Don chomharsanacht."
Labhraíonn an t-Ózón go feargach. Baineann an file úsáid as an Modh Ordaitheach chun é seo a chur in cúl dúinn.
"Ná loit rud ar bith."
"Glac mo chomhairle."
Tá an tÓzon ag déanamh a dhícheall an domhain a chosaint.Tá fearg air go bhfúil an cine daonna ag loit an timpeallacht.
Is soléir ó na pointí thuas gurb é dúlra/nadúr an téama is trise sa dán An tÓzón le Máire Áine Nic Ghearailt.

Sample answer on "An tÁdh" le Padraig Ó Conaire:
Bas nó brón
(i) Is é an gearrscéal a roghnaigh mé ná An tÁdh le Pádraig Ó Conaire agus is é an téama a roghnaigh mé ná An Bás.
(ii) Bhí an scéalaí, Pádraig, agus a bheirt chairde Séamas agus Micilín i bhfolach mar nach raibh siad ag iarraidh aon obair a dhéanamh. Bhí Pádraig ag iarrraidh dul ag bádóireacht ach ní raibh an bheirt eile sásta mar go bhfuair siad léasadh an uair dheireanach a thóg siad bád amach gan cead mar go raibh sé chomh dáinséarach sin.
Bhí plean ag Pádraig, áfach. Dúirt sé go raibh Tom Beag ag dul go dtí margadh muc i nGarumna an lá sin agus gur cheart dóibh dul i ngan fhios do Tom. Bheartaigh siad dul i bhfolach sna málaí muc. Bheadh ar dhuine amháin fanacht chun a rá le Tom go raibh dhá mhuc eile sa bhád. Cé go raibh sé dáinsearach ní raibh aon duine sásta fanacht mar go raibh an triúr acu ag iarraidh dul amach sa bhád. Mar sin chuir siad ar chrannaibh é. Bhí ar an duine a tharraing an tráithnín ab fhaide fanacht. Fuair Pádraig an ceann ab fhaide agus bhí an-bhrón air.
Léim na buachaillí eile sa bhád. Tháinig Tom agus cúigear eile in éineacht leis. Rinne Pádraig iarracht dul ar bord i ngan fhios dóibh ach theip air. D’imigh an bád agus d’fhan Pádraig ag féachaint ar an mbád agus é éadmhar. Shuigh sé síos ar chloch agus thit sé ina chodladh ag smaoineamh ar an spórt is spraoi a bheadh ag Séamas agus Micilín.
Bhí an oíche ann nuair a dhúisigh sé. Agus é ar a shlí abhaile bhuail sé leis an máistir scoile agus máthair Mhicilín. Bhí siad ar thóir na mbuachaillí. D’inis Pádraig dóibh cá raibh na buachaillí eile. Thosaigh máthair Mhicilín ag caoineadh agus bhí ionadh ar Phádraig. Nuair a shroich sé a theach féin bhí a chlann ar fad agus athair Shéamais ag fanacht leis. D’inis sé a scéal arís agus d’fhág athair Shéamais gan focal a rá.
Ansin dúirt a mháthair leis go raibh an t-ádh leis mar go ndeachaigh an bád go tóin poill le Séamas agus Micilín ar bord. Nuair a chuala Pádraig go bhfuair na buachailí eile bás thuig sé go raibh tuismitheoirí an bheirt eile faoi ghruaim agus go raibh an t-ádh dearg leis agus lena theaghlach.0 -
If anyone has notes on An Corp or Na Blaithe Craige and could put them up here I'd really appreciate it!0

Freagair Samplach: "Chlaon mé mo cheann" le Seamus Ó Néill
Mothúcháin:grá, uaigneas, eagla, pian, briseadh croí.
Rinné mé stáidéar ar an dán "Chlaon mé mo cheann" le Seamus Ó Néill.
Is é an mothucháin atá roghnaithe agam ná brón.
Measaim go bhfúil an dán lán de brón.
Sa chéad véarsa, feicimid an brón atá ar an bhfile. Léiríonn sé go bhfúil sé uaigneach. Tugann sé íomhá dúinn dá mháthair go feitheamh leis go himníoch. Is léir ón íomhá go bhfúil sí marbh.
"Mo mháthair sa doras agus í ag fanacht go hímníoch."
Pictiúir eile a thaispeánann an brón atá air, na íomhá an athair ag filleadh abhaile ag deireadh an lae. Úsáideann sé an focal "fonn" chun béim a chur ar an ngaol maith a bhí idir an chlann. Léiríonn an íomhá seo go bhfile mar cuimhníonn sé go bhfuair a athair bás.
"Nó mo athair ag pilleadh tráthnóna le fonn."
Sa dara véarsa, tuigimid faoi deara go bhfúil an-bhrón air. Níl sé in ann fiú féachaint ar a sheanteach.
"Ar eagla go bhfeicfinn an stáinséir sa doras."
Tá meascán de mothúcháin le brath.
Ó na pointí thuas luaite i mo thuairim is é uaigneas an mothúcháin is treise sa dán seo.0 -

Geography Notes - #1:
The Planet Earth:
1. The Earth's Layers.
2. The Plates.
3. Earthquakes.
4. Volcanoes.
5. Other Diagrams
1:
- The Earth has three layers: Crust, mantle & core.
- Crust: Outer layer, solid rock, thin layer, earth's plates.
- Mantle: Middle layer, very hot, molten rock.
- Core: Centre of earth, hottest layer, iron and nickel.
- Diagram: http://www.didcotgirls.oxon.sch.uk/depts/geog/bcs_geography/images/earth%20structure3.gif
2:
- Seven major plates: Eurasian, Indian, African, American, Nazca, Pacific & Australian.
- Plates carry continents and oceans. They are constantly moving - continental drift.
- When plates collide, fold mountains occur, e.g. The Rockies, Canada.
- When plates seperate, volcanoes occur, e.g. Mt. Etna, Italy.
- When plates slide past each other, earthquakes occur, e.g. San Andreas Fault, California.
- Diagram: http://www.windows.ucar.edu/earth/images/earth_plates_usgs_L.jpg
3:
- The place within the crust where the earthquake occurs is the "focus". The point on the surface above the focus in the epicentre.
- Earthquakes produce shock waves:
~ Seismograph - measures shock waves.
~ Richter scale - records size of shock waves.
- Effects of earthquakes:
~ Loss of life.
~ Collapse/damage.
Diagram: http://www.eoearth.org/upload/thumb/3/36/Epicenter_diagram.gif/250px-Epicenter_diagram.gif
4:
- Magma under the earth's crust reaches the surface, cools and hardens to form lava. Lava forces it's way up through a vent forming a volcanic mountain.
- Types of volcanoes:
~ Active: Erupts frequently, Mt. Etna.
~ Dormant: Hasn't erupted for a long time, Mt. St. Helen's.
~ Extinct: Has never erupted, Mt. Slemish.

Any area in particular? (except the renaissance and medieval: we had a different student teacher for those sections don't have any real notes)0 -

Didn't really think this was a request kinda thing just thought people threw up notes they already have not compose new ones...

As in the whole North/South thing?I'll get up what I can maybe tonight sometime: I think I'm due a late night, haven't stayed up on here in ages.Didn't really think this was a request kinda thing just thought people threw up notes they already have not compose new ones...
Sure there's no harm in requesting them and besides I amn't making new ones we've been getting them since 1st year from our teacher.0 -
Whatever you can, like if you can't it's grand!
Don't be putting yourself out for me!
The reason I asked was because on another thread she had said to ask if anyone wanted them.0 -

Could anyone put up notes on CSPE?
ThanksLol! CSPE? You know out of the 80 marks on the written paper that you can only get up to 10 marks for the stuff you study? In some cases theres 3 questions @ 1 mark each. The rest is all like answering questions on ads and stuff - piss easy. Anyway CSPE isnt on the LC so I wouldnt get stressed out if I did bad, but I don't think I will.0
