practice of allusion, justified in "
Burbank" by the need to characterize the
tourist, performs in " Gerontion" the
function of condensing into decent compass a whole
panorama of the past. If any notion remained that
in the poems of 1919 Eliot was sentimentally
contrasting a resplendent past with a dismal
present, " Gerontion" should have helped
to dispel it. What are contrasted in this poem are

Margaret Dickie " The Colossus" is
Plath's admission of defeat and analysis of her

myths and rituals of the dying god to the colossus
figure and elaborates them with references to
Greek tragedy to make her poem a complicated,

selects the ancient role of the female who mourns
the dying god, or the heroine who tends the idol,
and brings it into her poem as felt experience. In

inspection from outside" (KE, 203).

he says to the lady will be answered by, "
That is not what I meant at all. /That is not it,
