York Longman 1999 Love And Friendship
1,227 wordsSonnet 130, or My Mistress' Eyes Are Nothing Like the Sun, seems to have a lot to do with friendship. Shakespeare could not have said such things like "Coral is far more red than her lips' red. " There must have been a very deep and understanding relationship between these two people. If Shakespeare and this woman were just lovers, Shakespeare probably would not have written such an honest poem. This woman he refers to might very well have been a friend of his mothers or an older lady. "My mistr...

W W Norton Norton Anthology Of English Literature
992 wordsWilliam Wordsworth's description of his poetry in Preface to Lyrical Ballads gives the impression that it feel much like a modern newspaper to a reader; basic and with wide appeal. He emphasizes the idea of simplicity and familiarity of both topic and language, arguing the superiority of a poem that appeals to the common person. However, despite the value placed on simplicity, his poems are far above what many readers would perceive to be elementary. This is demonstrated by the fact that his poe...

2,097 wordsKnowledge of contemporary British poetry is of great importance when it comes to understanding the reigning trends of England. The 1970 s saw a fair amount of polemic concerning the discontinuities of the national "traditions, " most of it concerned with poetry, all of it vulnerable to a blunt totalizing which demonstrated the triumphant ability of "nation" to organize literary study and judgment -- as it does still, perhaps more than ever. It remains the case twenty years later that there is a ...
