Im, Bora. “William Wordsworth and S. T. Coleridge in the Newspaper War.” Studies in English Language & Literature 43.2 (2017): 245-263. 1802 was the year when newspaper war broke out between Britain and France; Napoleon banned all British newspapers from France, while the British press replied to the attack from French newspapers with strong words. To explore the historical event I want to read William Wordsworth’s sonnets composed in 1802: “I Grieved for Buonaparté,” “I Grieved for Buonaparté,” and “Calais, August, 1802.” I hope my discussion will find out how Wordsworth supported Britain's war effort by publishing those patriotic sonnets, which are filled with Francophobia. My reading of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's essay, “Comparison” will facilitate the understanding of Wordsworth's sonnets mentioned above. In “Comparison” Coleridge showed his patriotism by criticizing the present state of France and praising the British constitution. (Chonbuk National University)

Reconsidering “a Swinish Multitude”: John Aitken’s Poem, The Swinish Multitude’s Push for Reform: A Poem in Three Cantos (1816)

임보라 대한영어영문학회 2018 영어영문학연구 Vol.44 No.2

The Romantic period saw the outbreak of the French Revolution and the French Revolutionary War. Those two important historical events led British radicals to confront the conservatives about the implications of the Revolution and social / political justice. Edmund Burke's pamphlet, Reflections on the Revolution in France, became the target of the radicals’ bitter criticism. In other words, contemporary political discourses were centered on Burke’s Reflections. In this article I would like to focus on the famous phrase in the Reflections, “a swinish multitude,” which stimulated the British radicals enormously and led them to compose various pamphlets. Due to the provoking concept, Burke was attacked both in prose and verse. I also would like to read John Aitken’s poem The Swinish Multitude's Push for Reform: A Poem in Three Cantos, which is an elaborate criticism of the phrase, the “swinish multitude.”

Nitrogen (N) loading from domestic, agricultural and industrial sources can lead to excessive growth of macrophytes or phytoplankton in aquatic environment. Many studies have used stable isotope ratios to identify anthropogenic nitrogen in aquatic systems as a useful method for studying nitrogen cycle. In this study to evaluate the precision and accuracy of denitrification bacteria method (Pseudomonas chlororaphis ssp. Aureofaciens (ATCC® 13985)), three reference (IAEA-NO-3 (Potassium nitrate KNO3), USGS34 (Potassium nitrate KNO3), USGS35 (Sodium nitrate KNO3)) were analyzed 5 times repeatedly. Measured the δ15N-NO3 and δ18O-NO3 values of IAEA-NO-3, USGS 34 and USGS35 were δ15N: 4.7±0.1‰ δ18O: 25.6±0.5‰, δ15N: -1.8±0.1‰ δ18O: -27.8±0.4‰, and δ15N: 2.7±0.2‰ δ18O: 57.5±0.7‰, respectively, which are within recommended values of analytical uncertainties. Also, we investigated isotope values of potential nitrogen source (soil, synthetic fertilizer and organic-animal manures) and temporal patterns of δ15N-NO3 and δ18O-NO3 values in river samples during from May to December. δ15N-NO3 and δ18O-NO3 values are enriched in December suggesting that organic-animal manures should be one of the main N sources in those areas. The current study clarifies the reliability of denitrification bacteria method and the usefulness of stable isotopic techniques to trace the anthropogenic nitrogen source in freshwater ecosystem.

삶과 죽음, 그 어디에서도 만족을 찾지 못하는 영혼의 노래 —실비아 플라스의 『강을 건너며』에 수록된 「나무딸기 따기」에 대한 고찰

This paper discusses a significant poem composed by Sylvia Plath(1932-1963), which is titled "Blackberrying" included in her Crossing the Water. Plath's biography excites and stimulates our interests in the corpus of her works: the poet was born in Boston, Massachusettes to parents who valued educational pursuits of their children; she responded to her mother's expectation very well and studied at Cambridge; the poet married Ted Hughes but they separated after all; and she ended her life by placing her head in an oven. The knowledge of the unusual story of her life cannot be a sole reliable key to the understanding of Plath's poetry, but it certainly helps us to read it in more detail. Bearing the biographical notes in mind, this paper reads "Blackberrying" very closely and explores Plath or the poetic speaker's philosophical, existential wavering between life and death in the poem. Life and death were both enticing and frightening for Plath and therefore the poet was standing between the two extremes. In this paper we examine poetic symbols and imagery vividly expressed in "Blackberrying": the imageries of burnt paper, sea, hooks, the wind, blackness and death are dealt with in detail.

Strategy for Reconciliation in English Drama of the Romantic Period: Richard Brinsley Sheridan, Illegitimate Theatre, Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey

임보라 한국현대영미드라마학회 2019 현대영미드라마 Vol.32 No.2

In the 1790s playwrights attempted pungent satires, but they did not, or could not continue the satiric tones consistently: even though the plays contained social criticism it had to be reconciled by patriotic sentiments or assertions at all events. In this article I would like to study how British theatre was influenced by patriotic sentiments and how it in turn contributed to the reproduction of them. In doing this, I will focus on Richard Brinsley Sheridan's less explored but still important play, The Critic (1779). I will also discuss other plays of illegitimate theatre to show the extensive influence of patriotic sentiments on British theatre. I will read Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey’s play, The Fall of Robespierre: An Historic Drama (1794) along with The Critic to explore the three playwrights’ strategy for reconciling patriotism with social criticism. For example the playwrights at this time could save their political remarks and avoid the suspicious eye of the magistrates by inserting patriotic spectacles in the concluding part. Thus some plays showed the abruptness and awkwardness of the transition from radicalism to patriotism; there was the unseen presence of the eye of the authorities, or the playwright’s anxiety about the censorship behind the transition. Playwrights at this time had to reconcile their social criticism with hints of patriotic sentiments.

Polite Invitation to the Literature of Moral Truth

임보라 대한영어영문학회 2023 영어영문학연구 Vol.49 No.3

his paper aims to explore the literary scope of William Godwin, one of the outstanding writers of Britain in the eighteenth century. Godwin composed works such as The Enquirer, St Dunstan, and Caleb Williams. Godwin’s major text is Political Justice, where he examines and tries to establish moral truth. In Political Justice, Godwin highlights the importance of reason, truth, justice, private judgment, public debate and discussion. Godwin’s intriguing ideas and belief had responses from the major Romantic poets like Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Bysshe Shelley and William Wordsworth. Godwin wanted his own country to witness the better society where public debate and discussion flourished. Godwin’s emphasis on the increase of knowledge and virtue as well as the dissemination of truth in his Political Justice contributed to the formation of Britain in the eighteenth century.

Hepatic pseudolymphoma mimicking hypervascular tumor: A case report

임보라,연재우,김혁중,장석기,백소야,박상종 대한영상의학회 2018 대한영상의학회지 Vol.79 No.6

Hepatic pseudolymphoma is a rare benign liver mass that is characterized by proliferation of non-neoplastic lymphocytes extranodally. To the best of our knowledge, only 46 cases have been reported in the English literature. We described the case of a 75-years-old woman with hepatic pseudolymphoma mimicking a hypervascular tumor. After the histological confirmation of the rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET), CT scan revealed a 1.0 cm-sized, poorly-defined and low-density nodule in the liver. On MRI, the hepatic nodule showed an arterial enhancement and a low-signal intensity on the hepatobiliary phase. On diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), the hepatic nodule showed a high signal intensity on a high b-value. On FDG PET/CT, we revealed a high standardized uptake value nodule. The US showed the hypoechoic nodule and the US-guided biopsy confirmed the hepatic pseudolymphoma.

Multilayer Sentiments in Britain: “Britons, Strike Home,” “Britons, Strike Home! A New Song,” and English Romantic Verse

임보라 한국현대영어영문학회 2022 현대영어영문학 Vol.66 No.3

This paper attempts to examine Britain's complicated responses to the French Republic in the Romantic period. For the fruitful discussion, I would like to explore three works: a crucial passage in William Wordsworth's autobiographical poem, The Prelude, Henry Purcell's "Britons, Strike Home," and an anonymous verse, "Britons, Strike Home! A New Song." Hopefully the discussion about their literary signification and implications will shed a light on how the French Revolution and the French Revolutionary Wars exerted a strong influence on Britain at that time. The exploration of the relevant passage from The Prelude will help foreground Wordsworth's fear of the French Revolution, which was exacerbated by its innate brutalities. Indeed, the cruelties committed by the Revolutionists inspired fear in the poet's mind. But they also stimulated Britain's national pride. Purcell's "Britons, Strike Home" and the anonymous piece, "Britons, Strike Home! A New Song" praised the British Constitution very ardently.
