Auden & Donne/On Separation & Mourning
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares poems by these two poets. Separation from a loved one, either through death or prolonged absence, engenders the natural response of mourning. In his poem "Funeral Blues," W.H. Auden captures in metaphors the heart-wrenching experience of losing a loved one. John Donne's "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" also uses metaphor in order to offer solace to his beloved concerning a prolonged separation. In both cases, the poets capture the experience of mourning the creative use of metaphor. No additional sources cited.

[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length.

The scope of Ayla as the symbolic representation of man's evolution upon this planet is both grand and far-reaching; that she is also the epitome of spiritual connection between two otherwise disparate cultures speaks to the tremendous gap Auel sought to bridge in The Clan of the Cave Bear and The Valley of Horses with regard to how the human race progressed.
