'Way of the World' and other material

Aishwarya has asked for material on 'Way of the World'
Here is what I found. May be some of you should check for annotated version in the library as well.

1. Good ol' Wiki!
2. Pink Monkey. For better effect do not click on the links but click on next button at the bottom of the page
3. From Answers.Com
4. From Faculty.Goucher!

Many of the poems and at least one of the essays are available with annotations (i.e. explanations of words and meanings!) in the Macmillan edition on various poets in the library. There is a book called 'Explorations' which was the textbook for Optional English a few years ago when the institution was under Bangalore university. You will find it in one the last rows of the UG English racks. It has material for many of your poems and at least one Essay. I think it's on Will Wimble.

Cheers!

Dear Savita, guess you may like to direct the question to the teacher who taught the text. It's a long time since I last read the text (2000!)hence don't i'm in a position to answer.

Let me give you two links for wiki. If you read both and compare the distinction will be quite clear. Please copy and paste the links in the URL

Comedy of Manners: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedy_of_manners
