The poem "And death shall have no dominion" by Dylan Thomas discusses the relationship between death and life. It argues that death is not the end, and that those who die will live on through their connection to nature. The poem is composed of three stanzas with the line "And death shall have no dominion" repeated at the beginning and end. Thomas believes death does not have power over humanity, and that one's spirit or life force survives physically dying by becoming part of nature.

Is This Death?!
by: Amal Soliman
Until death has a new meaning. Man knows very well that he will face
death as it truth of life . No one can not prevent the death and the grave
human entry . what is the mystery of death, I think, the secret of death lies
in the secret of life. Dylan Thomas was welsh poet and writer whose works
include the poem “And death shall have no domanion “ gives us another
point of view about death .I asked is it real death or actual life ? Death can’t
kill us completely . Thomas indebted to a particular phrase from the Bible
the idea of unity with natural is clear in his poem .Of course in the back of
our minds we're somewhat aware of our inevitable end.may be we will
change our mind.
The more fantastic the part, the better Dylan was ‫ ؛‬It was during
these years that Thomas’s voice became strong and acquired the
resonance that was to make him as famous as his poetry
.(Malcolm Graham from the previous section .the reworder is my own
phrasing.)
Dylan Thomas had several poems published in local papers. In the spring
of 1933 Trick suggested the two men both write a poem on the subject of
'immortality'. Trick's poem, which was published in a newspaper the
following year, contained the refrain "For death is not the end."
In 1933, in a notebook marked 'April', Thomas wrote the poem "And
death shall have no dominion "On 10 September 1936, two years after
the release of his first volume of poetry (18 Poems), Twenty-five Poems
was published. It revealed Thomas' personal beliefs pertaining to

2. religion and the forces of nature, and included "And death shall have no
dominion".
The title of Dylan Thomas’s poem “And death shall have no
dominion” is strongly and obviously indebted to a particular phrase from
the Bible, in the King James It is clear in this context:
“7: For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8: Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with
him:
9: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death
hath no more dominion over him.
10: For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth
unto God.”
11: Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but
alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans: 6:7­11)
Thomas’s poem emphasizes the beauties of nature; Paul’s words
emphasize the glories of the afterlife in heaven with the risen Christ.
When Saint Paul said in his letter to the Romans that “death hath no more
dominion,” he meant that those who had chosen salvation would not suffer
eternal damnation and spiritual death. Instead, they would be resurrected
on the Day of Judgment and given new spiritual bodies.but the main idea
of keeping alive by any way still the same .The title comes from st.paul’s
epistle to the Romans (6:9)
But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him; 6:9
"And death shall have no dominion" comes straight from the New
Testament and that it's all about spiritually rising up after death the idea of
rising up all over the poem at the beginning and ending of each stanza
spiritual world can be never died .the power of death stop heir .the sounds
in the title give us kind of beauty between “death” and “dominion”
alliteration as romanticism.

3. The structure is three stanzas of nine lines each. The opening line is
repeated as the closing line in each stanza: "And death shall have no
dominion." None of the repetitions of the line have any variation from the
first. The theme is conveyed in this repeated line: "Death does not hold
power over humanity." This reflects the Modernist desire to reclaim
humankind's alienated soul, alienated from humankind's own humanity and
from nature that houses humans. if we omit the first and the last line we will
find seven lines this is the number of completion the days of the week are
seven .God created man in six days and on the seventh day he lived. I
think that the poet wanted to convey his message that life be completed
between death with no meaning except another life as well as his verses
confined between"And death shall have no dominion."
"And death shall have no dominion"
The first stanza therefore argues that those who die "shall be one"
with nature as their bodies fade away but the essence that remains
takes its place in the natural world. Again and again, Thomas
argues that what endures is not people but the spiritual force that is
within us. For example, Thomas argues that "Though lovers be lost
love shall not." Interestingly, although there is much of the lexis
and solemn tone that reminds us of Christianity and passages of
the Bible, the poem contains no reference to God or salvation or
Judgment Day. Death and what happens to us is shown to be a
supremely natural event.
The second stanza focuses on the pain that we experience in life
and through dying. It does not matter how we die, or whether our
faith does "snap in two" because of the pressure and pain. We will
not experience a final death and it is nature that holds our destiny.
Lastly, the final stanza gives us a series of images of how our spirit
will enter the natural world. Our life force is so much a part of
nature that we may find our life force entering objects such as a
daisy or the sun, but it will definitely not end. The final line of the

4. poem repeats the refrain and the central argument of Thomas:
"And Death Shall Have No Dominion."
I see that Thomas talks not only from a religious perspective but also as a
celebration of the forces of life to win over death. At the end of the poem,
we are left to wonder whether, in spite of the Biblical imagery, Thomas is
not offering an alternative vision of resurrection to that of official
Christianity. The poem frames resurrection in nature, life force is
immortal—that people’s bodies may die but their spirits live on in the world.
finally death is not actual death .our life is forced to connected to birds
flowers and other objects of nature.death means that our essence only
enters nature.death does not claim ultimate victory over humanity. The
dead are never truly lost to us but live on through the beauty of their
memory and spirit. The struggle continues.
