Analysis of Frankenstein and Romantic Poetry

The Three Phases of Wine Tasting
Tasting is the organoleptic description of a wine or broth. It consists of three distinct phases: visual, olfactory, and gustatory.
1. Visual Analysis

Audre Lorde — “Power” (1978)
Context
Power: Written in 1978 after the death of a 10-year-old Black boy, Clifford Glover, in New York (1973).
