Text 6: Glory
Glory Be To
Chocolate
- Text is written in 1997, therefore
has a modern audience that enjoy
literature and poetry
- The purpose is to
entertain the reader
about the wonders of
chocolate, and
whether the poets
veiws are correct
- This text
has a
modern,
contempary
audience
- Field:
Food, and
the
emotions
and feeling
attached
- This text can be
compared to text 16:
Mexican Scrambled
eggs, as it is written for
modern audeinces, and
is also very entertaining
as it uses colloquial
lexis mixed with text
specific lexis
- Text specific lexis:
'Endomorphins' shows
that the writer knows
what he's referring to in
the text
- 'Cinnamon Flavoured little imps': This
quote wants you to question throughout
the text whether chocolate is good or
bad
- In the first stanza there is no use
of punctuation and a high use of
enjabment to show the
irresistability of chocolate, but the
end of stanza three uses a full
stop which makes the reader
question again
- The last question mkes the reader question again whether chocolate is really 'God' like
- The last question mkes the reader question again whether chocolate is really 'God' like
- The text can be compared to text 11:
Vegetarian society, as they both use colloquial
language which allows the reader to make their
own decisions
- Text 6 uses short sentences so the
reader can understand the poets views
on chocolate and decide whether they
like it, and text 11 uses small colloquial
sentences for a text specific lexis so the
reader can decide whether being a
vegetarian is right for them
- Text 6 uses short sentences so the
reader can understand the poets views
on chocolate and decide whether they
like it, and text 11 uses small colloquial
sentences for a text specific lexis so the
reader can decide whether being a
vegetarian is right for them
- The text uses short sentences which
relates to the purpose 'to entertain'
which make the poem more enjoyable
to read
- Figurative language:
‘Cinnamon flavoured little imps’
gives the chocolate a sinful
persona, which is highly
effective as it makes the reader
crave it as people tend to want
things they can’t have, which
makes you question whether
the chocolate is good or bad for
you again
- Cinnamon makes it sound appealing, but the use of antithesis
makes the reader question whether it is good or bad
- Cinnamon makes it sound appealing, but the use of antithesis
makes the reader question whether it is good or bad
- Sound Patterning: ‘The divine barbaric pod
that makes every mouth a god?’ This quote
is broken up by the question mark and
stanza break, draws attention the
juxtaposition ‘divine barbaric’, which again
makes you question about chocolate
- ‘Candies, Cookies, Cinnamon’ The sibilance makes it sound
sweet and innocent, yet it has a devilish, tempting sound
- Word Choice: ‘Sweet releaser of endomorphins’ the
poet uses very colloquial lexis to express his opinion
on chocolate, thus making it more entertaining to read,
however by using this biological term ‘endomorphins’ it
makes the reader think that his opinion is the correct
one
- Can be compared to text 15 as it also uses text specific lexis to declare the
hygiene rules and regulations
- Can be compared to text 15 as it also uses text specific lexis to declare the
hygiene rules and regulations
- Grammar: ‘That makes
every mouth a god?’ The use
of rhetorical question in the
last stanza of this poem is
highly affective, the use of
grammar sums up the poem
and gives the reader a clear
choice whether they are
going to agree with opinions
of chocolate or disagree
- ‘Mouth of god?’ in this sentence is a very strong sentence to end on by
referring to a God like parallel causes a large debate in the readers mind
- Can be compared to text 28 due to grammar in the text e.g. ‘The evening arrived; the boys
took their places’. The use of the semi colon breaks up the tempo of the text and makes
the reader understand that it isn’t a good position to be in, it relates to text 6 as it allows the
reader to question what life was like in the workhouse, and whether they like the chocolate
