Robert Herrick/Analysis of Two Poems
[ send me this paper ]
A 2 page analysis of two poems by the seventeenth century poet Robert Herrick-- 'Corinna's Going A-Maying' and 'The Hock-cart.' The writer argues that these two poems can be read simultaneously at three levels. On one level the poems describe the events that help to mark the human year�the coming of spring and the celebration of the harvest. On the other hand, these events of the human year are reflective of the natural order, the passage of the seasons, and the cyclical nature of time. No additional sources cited.

Identity in the Work of Olds and Plath
[ send me this paper ]
A five page look at Sylvia Plath�s poem �Mirror� and Sharon Olds� �The Death of Marilyn Monroe,� in terms of both poets� observations on the nature of identity as opposed to appearance. Plath argues that as many times as we return to the mirror to see our reflection there, it is not ourselves we are seeing -- we are merely seeing something similar to what others see. Olds continues this argument by asserting that if others feel they know us by our outward appearance, they are wrong, because the outer shell is not us.
