After Us

AAFTER US In this poem, the poet uses a surplus of imagery to allow the reader to fully see what she is trying to get us to picture. In the first line, she talks about how rain, which can be destructive or helpful, is seeping into a room where books and other material things reside. In the lines to follow, she writes about how everything that flourished under the sun, turned away to try and find the light that they so desperately need. This shows the destructive side to rain because it paints the picture of a dark day with rain falling and silencing all activities that happen during the day. In the second paragraph, the poet writes about a portrait, which has sketches of boats and barns and this creates the image of a perfect utopia where everything is peaceful and nothing has disturbed it. The paragraph that follows this peaceful picture, is where the foreboding and evil rain begins to make its appearance again. She writes about how everything that was ever thought of or invented or t

Paradise Lost

PParadise Lost  The epic starts customarily in medias res. Satan and the other insubordinate holy messengers alert to end up in Hell on a pool of fire. Satan is lying close to Beelzebub. Satan raises himself from the lake and flies to the shore. He requires different heavenly messengers to do likewise, and they amass by the lake. Satan discloses to them that everything isn't lost and attempts to rouse his supporters. Driven by Mammon and Mulciber, the fallen holy messengers construct their capital and castle, Pandemonium. The most elevated positioning of the holy messengers at that point collect for a chamber.  In the gathering, Satan asks what the evil spirits think ought to be the following move against God. Moloch contends for open fighting. Belial turns Moloch's contentions, recommending that nothing ought to be finished. Mammon, the materialistic heavenly messenger, contends that they do the best with what they have. At long last, Beelzebub, Satan's second in order, su

Dover Beach

DDover Beach  The speaker watches out upon a quiet ocean, and notices the totality of the tide and the moon pondering the water. Looking across the English channel, the speaker sees the lights of the French coast disappear, while the precipices of the English coast stand tall and brilliant, and the inlet appears to be quiet. Out of nowhere, the speaker tends to another person, and beseeches this individual to come and take a gander at what the speaker is taking a gander at, and to appreciate the night's charming air. The speaker detects something isn't exactly correct, and portrays the shower where the water meets the twilight land. The speaker teaches the other individual to tune in to the sound of the stones as the waves shift them to and fro, up the sea shore and down once more. The speaker noticed this lethargic rehashing activity, and distinguishes it with everlasting pity.  Out of nowhere, the speaker ponders the antiquated Greek dramatist, Sophocles, and envisions Sophoc

Lycidas

LLycidas "Lycidas" is perhaps the most wonderful sonnets composed as a peaceful requiem in 1637, and is last of his Horton sonnets. A school companion Edward King, had been suffocated in the Irish Sea, and Milton following the graceful custom of the age, portrays both himself and his companion in the pretense of shepherds driving the peaceful life. The sonnet can be helpfully partitioned into six areas, an introduction, four fundamental parts, and an epilog. In the preface (lines 1-24) Milton conjures the Muse and brings up the aim of composing the sonnet. This epitaph is a result of the artist's unpleasant encounters and dismal recollections; accurately the memory is the inopportune passing of Lycidas. The subsequent area (lines 25-84) is essentially worried about the depiction of the time the artist and Lycidas have spent at Cambridge. The portrayal is a progression of completely painted peaceful pictures; the two companions started their examination in the first part o

The Divine Comedy

TThe Divine Comedy In Dante's Inferno, he winds up lost in the woods and understands that he has kicked the bucket. Virgil helps him on his excursion, going with him all through Inferno and Purgatorio. He experiences the abhorrences occurring inside Inferno and goes through its nine circles. We will investigate every one of the circles of hellfire and decide their particulars and contrasts, just as take a gander at Dante's Inferno—Satan himself. Purgatorio is a piece of The Divine Comedy wherein Dante and Virgil travel through the seven patios of the mountain, every one of them addressing a destructive sin. In Paradiso, the principle character, with the direction of his dearest Beatrice, travel through the nine divine circles of Heaven. Rather than Inferno and Purgatorio, in the last piece of the sonnet the hero experiences temperances, not sins. Thank You!! PS: Blogging is Passion Of Mine.

The Waste Land

TThe Waste Land The first phase of 'The Waste Land' is referred to as The Burial of the lifeless which refers to the burial of the dead, fertility gods in Frazer's The Golden Beer and the burial provider in the Christian Church. In both those cases, death is observed by way of re-birth, however within the contemporary desolate tract rebirth could be very dubious, and those stay in a degree of life-in-loss of life. The situation is presented thru four scenes of The Burial of the dead "The commonplace notice in these kind of scenes is fear; the assessment arises from the various attitudes towards fear. The theme is first said in the famous starting strains, the comment on the cruelty of spring time, the pain of new lifestyles stirring after the torpor of iciness, and we skip to a memory of summer season coming with a bath of rain, after which sunlight and an hour of casual communicate in the Hofgarten at Munich". within the second scene we skip through Ezekiel's

Song of Myself

SSong Of Myself “Song of Myself,” the longest poem in Leaves of Grass, is a joyous celebration of the human self in its most expanded, spontaneous, self-sufficient, and all-embracing state as it observes and interacts with everything in creation and ranges freely over time and space. The bard of the poem, speaking in the oracular tones of the prophet, affirms the divinity and sacredness of the entire universe, including the human body, and he asserts that no part of the universe is separate from himself—he flows into all things and is all things. The “I” of the poem is quite clearly, then, not the everyday self, the small, personal ego that is unique and different from all other selves. Rather, the persona who speaks out in such bold terms is the human self experiencing its own transcendental nature, silently witnessing all the turbulent activity of the world while itself remaining detached: “Apart from the pulling and hauling stands what I am, . . . Both in and out of the game and wat

Invictus

IInvictus   The speaker begins by emerging from a metaphorical night that lies on top of the speaker like a physical thing. This night, which seems to fill the whole world, is as dark as Hell. Despite this darkness, the speaker feels gratitude towards any god or gods that may exist for granting unshakeable resilience. Looking back on life's past challenges, which constrained the speaker like a giant fist, the speaker remembers never showing discomfort or complaining. Going even further, the speaker compares life's unexpected mishaps to being beaten with a heavy implement. The speaker was damaged by this beating, yet that fact did not decrease the speaker's pride or resolve. Now the speaker looks beyond the present of anger and sadness to the future. Unfortunately, the future's only certainty is death, which hangs over the present like a terrifying shadow. However, the speaker once again affirms that the threat of inevitable suffering does not, and never will, frighten t

I wandered lonely as a cloud

 II wandered lonely as a cloud The speaker says that, wandering like a cloud floating above hills and valleys, he encountered a field of daffodils beside a lake. The dancing, fluttering flowers stretched endlessly along the shore, and though the waves of the lake danced beside the flowers, the daffodils outdid the water in glee. The speaker says that a poet could not help but be happy in such a joyful company of flowers. He says that he stared and stared, but did not realize what wealth the scene would bring him. For now, whenever he feels “vacant” or “pensive,” the memory flashes upon “that inward eye / That is the bliss of solitude,” and his heart fills with pleasure, “and dances with the daffodils.” Thank You!!

Fire and Ice

FFire and Ice The speaker weighs up two different scenarios for the end of the world. Some people think the world will end in fire, whereas others think ice is more likely. Based on the speaker's experiences with desire, he or she tends to agree with those who believe fire is the more likely scenario. If the world were to end twice, however, the speaker feels that, based on his or her knowledge of human hatred, ice would be an equally powerful method of destruction—and would do the job sufficiently.

The Prelude

TThe Prelude  The Prelude affords one of the best approaches to Wordsworth's poetry in general and to the philosophy of nature it contains. However, the apparent simplicity of the poem is deceptive; comprehension is seldom immediate. Many passages can tolerate two or more readings and afford new meaning at each reading. Wordsworth, it will be recalled, likened his projected great philosophical work to a magnificent Gothic cathedral. And he explained (in the Preface to The Excursian) that The Prelude was like an antechapel through which the reader might pass to gain access to the main body of the structure. The poem begins in his boyhood and continues to 1798. By the latter date, he felt that his formative years had passed, that his poetic powers were mature, and that he was ready to begin constructing the huge parent work. Alternating with his almost religious conviction, there is an unremitting strain of dark doubt through the poem. The poem itself therefore may be considered an a

My Last Duchess

 MMy Last Duchess The speaker (the Duke of Ferrara) guides the consideration of a visitor to an artistic creation of his previous spouse, the Duchess of Ferrara, which holds tight the divider. The Duke lauds the artwork for looking so exact and afterward comments on how hard the painter, Fra Pandolf, buckled down on it. The duke requests that the visitor sit and take a gander at the work. The duke at that point clarifies that he intentionally referenced the name of the painter, since outsiders like the messenger consistently take a gander at the duchess' painted face—with its profound, energetic, and sincere look—and go to the duke (and just the duke, since just he pulls back the window ornament that uncovers the artistic creation) and go about like they would ask, on the off chance that they tried, how a demeanor like that came into her face. The duke emphasizes that the visitor isn't the primary individual to pose this inquiry.  The duke proceeds by saying that it wasn't
