No,No,No.....the best poem to compare ozymandias with is the river god. Both have pride and arrogance in it. Ozymandias-the king is so proud of himself and he thinks he is the best...He is also very arrogant because the inscription shows that this ruler thought he was better than everyone else. In river god..he also thinks he is most powerful and so proud ov himself,,he treats the dying woman like toys. he dont care about human life ..
Hope that helps gee

No Im comparing it to Horse Whisperer:
Arrogance: His charms and secrets could be interpreted that he has the highest rank
Arrogance in Ozy: The obvious "King of Kings"

Both lose their power and ive written and essay and Ive been able to find loads of similarities.

Are you sure this will come up though ?

It's very likely that Ozymandias will come up. And the question would probably be about power. So comparison with The River God or My Last Duchess would be good for that.

I'm just going to wing it... I quite liked analysing these poems learning the hidden meaning behind them.

How can you be 100% sure? Unless your're an exam officer then I don't understand how you will know?

[Davidmcintyre95]

haven't any of you been told the three named poems?

1) Casehistory
2) Medusa
3) Les Grands Seigneurs

out of the two questions one or two of them will be in them :P

I havent revised for this at all... Do you think its possible to get a C without doing any revision? I understand that I have to compare content, theme, structure, language, form and all that stuff. I just havent revised any of the poems specifically. I intend on making it all up in the exam.

It's English i got an A* in the mock with no revision, you just need to be a good bullsh*tter

That is wrong. The 3 poems that cannot be named in the higher paper are The Ruined Maid, Brendon Gallacher and Give. These will not come up in the paper because they are the named poems for the foundation paper.
