Sam Hunt's poem "Stabat Mater" describes the changing relationship between the poet's parents over time. It explores how his mother grew to see his father differently as she aged, initially referring to him formally as "Mr. Hunt" due to their age difference, and now caring for him in his old age. The poem examines themes of love, aging, duty to care for elders, and the inevitable cycle of life and death. It takes its unusual title from a 13th century Latin hymn describing Mary's sorrows at the crucifixion, perhaps alluding to the mother's grief at her partner's decline.
Literature presentation “she was a phantom of delight”vickyquiroga
This poem describes a woman who was initially seen as a phantom but upon closer observation is revealed to be both spiritual and human. In the first stanza she appears mysteriously beautiful. In the second stanza the poet sees her doing household tasks and finds her to be a pleasant companion. By the third stanza he sees her as a perfect woman with strength, skill and the ability to guide him. The poem explores the poet's growing understanding and admiration of this woman, who is revealed to be his wife Mary Hutchinson.
This poem by Samuel Daniel from 1592 expresses the speaker's despair over unrequited love through dark tones of misery, anguish, and depression. Sleep and death are portrayed as means to end suffering from cares of the heart. The speaker longs for the embrace of sleep and clouds to help forget his troubles and restore peace, going so far as to wish for a sleep that would never end in death to escape his emotional pain. Literary devices like oxymorons and exaggerated language portray the depth of his bereavement and self-loathing over his unrequited feelings.
The poetess conveys wisdom through several elements in the poem:
- Experience and reflection. The poem suggests the poetess has gone through difficult life experiences of loneliness, hardship as a woman, and unfulfilled hopes for love and freedom. She is drawing on this experience to reflect on deeper truths about the human condition and women's lives.
- Realism and acceptance. Rather than dwelling in misery, the poetess adopts a realistic tone of accepting her circumstances as they are. This conveys a wisdom of understanding reality rather than clinging to false hopes.
- Resilience. Despite her suffering, the poetess notes she has never sunk so low as to be overwhelmed by fear, and can still find moments of
1) A young girl comes home from school to find an ambulance leaving her house, learning that her mother had suddenly died of unknown causes.
2) Unable to see her mother's dead body or attend her burial, the girl imagines her mother living on as a tree in their yard to continue feeling her presence.
3) Over the years, the girl invents an entire life for her mother, pretending she is living abroad and doing various activities, because she cannot accept her mother's death.
Lady Mary Wroth was a 17th century English woman who was the first to write a full-length prose romance and sonnet sequence. This poem analyzes a sonnet written by Wroth that warns women about the untrustworthy nature of men. The poem describes men as crying children who are never satisfied and will use flattery to deceive women. It advises women to leave men alone once they start crying for attention and not to seek them out, as men are prone to leaving quickly. The analysis discusses how the poem offers a perspective on the harsh treatment of women by men during this time period through its use of metaphors and warnings to readers.
The poem describes the narrator's experience of losing her mother at a young age. She comes home from school to see an ambulance taking her mother away, and never sees her buried. Over the years, the narrator creates an imagined life for her mother to cope with the loss. However, in the final stanza, the narrator realizes she is the "lost woman," still haunted by her mother's death. The poem explores the lasting effects of loss on a daughter's psyche.
This poem explores a man's confusion over women who once sought his affection but now flee from him. The speaker describes one woman in particular who seemed devoted but is now acting in a "strange fashion" by forsaking him. He questions what she deserves for this change in behavior. The poem reflects the uncertainty experienced by Sir Thomas Wyatt, who faced changing fortunes under King Henry VIII and was rumored to be Anne Boleyn's lover before her execution.

Owen Sheers' poem "Coming Home" describes his visit home to see his aging parents and grandfather. The poem is told in three stanzas with decreasing line counts, perhaps symbolizing the decreasing time his grandfather has left. It explores themes of nostalgia, aging, and the transitory nature of life. Through vivid descriptions of his parents and grandfather, Sheers expresses the sadness of watching loved ones age and acknowledges that family members won't be around forever.
The poem describes a man who fell in love at first sight with a rural maid. When they parted ways, he continued to dream of her and think of her constantly. Though he knows her heart is not for him, he pleads for her forgiveness in expressing his love and says that if he could hold her, he would consider both heaven and earth as his. The persona depicts the maid as having a rare, divine beauty that left him longing for her despite the impossibility of them being together.
Sylvia Plath was born in 1932 in Massachusetts. She married Ted Hughes in 1956.
The poem describes a mirror that sees objects impartially without judgment. It reflects a woman searching her reflection for who she truly is. As she ages, she does not like what she sees and relies on candles or the moon for comfort rather than accepting the mirror's truthful reflection. Each morning, an old woman replaces the darkness, as her youth has drowned in the mirror and aging rises towards her.
The poem explores the pain that comes with losing youth and innocence, as society values beauty over truth. The mirror provides an unbiased reflection regardless of whether one likes what they see.
The document provides a detailed summary and analysis of Act 2 of Blood Wedding by Federico Garcia Lorca. Key events include the bride expressing reservations about her wedding, a confrontation between the bride and her old flame Leonardo, and ominous premonitions of doom from the mother. By the end of the act, the bride and Leonardo disappear together on a horse, igniting the blood feud between their families once more.
Sylvia Plath was born in 1932 in Massachusetts. She married Ted Hughes in 1956 and they had two children together. In 1962, she learned of Ted's infidelity and they separated. Struggling with this, Plath committed suicide in 1963.
The poem "Mirror" is about a mirror addressing itself as an objective reflector of reality without judgment. It reflects the colors on the opposite wall until darkness. A woman bends over the mirror as if it were a lake, searching deeply but only seeing her actual self. Unhappy with her aging reflection, she weeps as the youth she once saw has drowned in the mirror's depths.
The poet feels joy when seeing a rainbow, as he did as a child and continues to as a man. He hopes this feeling remains as he ages, and would rather die than lose it. He expresses a philosophy that childhood shapes adulthood, as "the Child is a Father of the Man."
The poem "Mirror" by Sylvia Plath is summarized in three sentences:
The poem is narrated from the perspective of a mirror that describes observing a woman searching for her identity. The mirror then takes on the role of a lake, continuing to observe the aging woman who comes daily seeking her lost youth but finds only further signs of aging. A key theme is the pain that comes with losing youth and innocence as one faces the truth of mortality reflected back without judgment.
The document provides a detailed summary and analysis of Act 3 of Blood Wedding by Federico García Lorca. Key details include:
- Act 3 takes place at night in a forest, with woodcutters commenting on the fleeing lovers and inevitability of their capture.
- Major characters like the Moon and Death personified appear and use symbolic language to allude to the coming violent confrontation between the lovers and Bridegroom.
- The play builds to a passionate final scene between the lovers before screams are heard. The final scene shows the aftermath, with the wife left in solitude and bitterness prevailing.
- Analysis notes Act 3 brings the tragedy to its climax as fate overrides free will
The document provides notes and analysis of the poem "She Walks in Beauty" by Lord Byron. It summarizes that the poem is a celebration of a woman's external and inner beauty through 18 lines. While it may be classified as a love poem, the poet does not explicitly declare love for his subject. The analysis notes that the poem uses imagery of light and dark to describe the perfect balance of the woman's beauty, and suggests the poet admires her goodness more than her physical attractiveness alone.
William Shakespeare was considered a feminist during the 15th century for creating unique and relatable female characters in his plays. Some of his most notable female characters include Lady Macbeth, who manipulates her husband into killing for power but goes insane without it; Queen Gertrude, whose complex character leaves her mysterious motivations unclear; and Juliet Capulet, who matures from a naive girl into an independent thinker through her love for Romeo. Shakespeare crafted his female characters to have depth and commentary on politics, power, and gender roles of the time in innovative ways.
The document provides biographical information about Lord Byron and analyzes his poem "She Walks in Beauty". It notes that Byron uses imagery of light and dark to portray the woman's beauty. He balances descriptions of her dark hair and pale skin to present her as the perfect blend of light and dark. However, the analysis argues that Byron objectifies the woman by focusing only on her appearance and providing no details about her personality.
This document provides an analysis of how Leonard Cohen portrays love in several of his poems and songs, including "Suzanne", "Everybody Knows", "Bird on the Wire", "I heard of a man", and "I'm Your Man". It discusses how the portrayal of love differs across the works, with "Suzanne" depicting a pure, trusting love that others cannot live up to. The analysis then examines how each work depicts relationship struggles and the failure to find lasting love outside of the idealized "Suzanne". It concludes that a theme in Cohen's work is respect for love but an inability to succeed in love beyond the platonic love represented by "Suzanne".
The poem is an argument by a lover to his beloved not to grieve at their parting. The lover compares parting to death, saying virtuous men die peacefully, so they too can part without tears. The lover argues their souls are one, so parting is an expansion, not a break. Even if their souls are two, they are like the feet of a compass - when one moves, the other leans and heeds the movement, and when it returns, the two are united. Thus the lover persuades his beloved that her firmness will enable his safe return after his journey.

- The poem "To Celia" expresses a man's deep love and devotion for a woman named Celia through the use of metaphors and symbols.
- He compares his love for her to drinking wine or Jove's nectar, suggesting it intoxicates and sustains him. When she returns a wreath of roses he gave her, it shows she does not return his feelings.
- However, the man remains hopeful and persistent in his love, promising it will continue to grow like the roses and always be tied to her.
John Donne (1572-1631) was an English poet and considered the founder of Metaphysical poets. He wrote love poetry, religious poetry, and satires. His poem "Sweetest Love I Do Not Go" was written in 1611 for his wife Ann Moore to ease her worries about his leaving on a journey. Through the use of metaphors and hyperbole comparing himself to the sun, Donne expresses his enduring love for his wife and urges her not to worry, as their love will sustain them even when apart. He ends by telling her to pretend they are sleeping together to rid herself of fears about their separation.

known and best-loved poems by John Clare.

he met in his native village.
She was the daughter of a wealthy farmer who would
not allow the relationship.
He later married another young woman and had a
family, but their relationship was never particularly
happy.
4. Poem:
First Love I ne’er was struck before that hour With love so sudden
and so sweet, Her face it bloomed like a sweet flower And stole
my heart away complete. My face turned pale as deadly pale. My
legs refused to walk away, And when she looked, what could I ail?
My life and all seemed turned to clay. And then my blood rushed
to my face And took my eyesight quite away, The trees and bushes
round the place Seemed midnight at noonday. I could not see a
single thing, Words from my eyes did start – They spoke as chords
do from the string, And blood burnt round my heart. Are flowers
the winter’s choice? Is love’s bed always snow? She seemed to
hear my silent voice, Not love’s appeals to know. I never saw so
sweet a face As that I stood before. My heart has left its dwelling-
place And can return no more.
5. Summary of the poem:
First Love refers to John Clare’s first love and how he
didn’t manage to stay with that love.
He expresses how tragic he had felt about love; the first
love that had no future.
He also describes the painful experience he had when he
mentions words such as “blood” which symbolizes the
agony and all the suffering he went through without his one
true love.
This poem can be seen to be an irregular poem as it starts
off with a happy feeling of love. However, as the poem
progresses, it gets blood-stained with sorrow and pain since
he cannot be with her.
6. Literary devices & its significance:
Many forms of figurative language such as metaphors,
personifications and hyperboles were used to show the
negative impacts of love throughout the poem.
Face turned pale a deadly pale and stole my heart
away show that Love shocked him as if he was a dead
ghost and as if life was taken away from him.
He can no longer live. Love has scared Clare and he
cannot act normal anymore.
7. Life and all seemed turned to clay and took my
eyesight quite away
Are all negative and depressing too. It is as if love
has modeled him like clay and destroyed Clare and he
cannot see anymore
Clare is not only blinded by love, but also very
affected by it too.
