Problem
Compare "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and "Mont Blanc" by Percy Bysshe Shalley. Summarize each poem, and respond to it in a sentence or two. Use specific examples from both texts to compare and contrast them (consider quotation of the actual language employed by the author), you are not only listing similarities and differences, but analyzing how each poem uses elements of Romanticism or the Gothic in converging or divergent ways to reveal the broader themes, issues, or stakes of each poem. Then, in a second paragraph, ask one question that occurred to you while you were reading the texts, and evaluate this question.
