The sooner people accept that we are all human, the better. Moving on, the author’s style was unusual, criticizing, and degrading, and the tone was less than likeable. However, it was a direct approach to displaying human faults and how people turn the other way rather than acknowledge them. Lady Montagu, clearly took offense to Swift’s poem and so, wrote her own riposte to put him down for writing such an unflattering poem. She certainly did not “pass in silence without matching wits”(292) with Swift.
In Medusa, another emotion is bitterness. ‘I stared in the mirror, love gone bad’. This shows bitterness because she is bitter about the way ‘love’ has turned out. It is almost an oxymoron, because society teaches us that love is good and should be sought after, whereas what she is saying goes against this. This intensifies the emotion and reinforces how much of a ‘mess’ their relationship is in.
Literary Analysis In this passage of The Minister’s black veil we see how the veil, a symbol of hidden sin, isolates and alienates the once loved Minister. In this excerpt, his once fiancé, is trying to understand the purpose of the veil. She, like the other towns people, inherent nature to speculate the horrific sins that he may be confessing through this veil fails to realize her own sin. The sin of her and the town’s people is that they shun him, because of a simple veil, and in doing so demonstrate how shallow and unappreciative their faith is. Hawthorne uses characterization to victimize the minister and point out the flaws of the wife.

In the last two lines of the poem she wrote, “Demur- you’re straightway dangerous-/And handled with a Chain-“ This help the reader to relates how one considered to be good and upright, the society might considered to be dangerous. The speakers seem to be very angry with the matter discuss in the poem. Some critic believed Dickinson is trying to show the inequality between women and men in the 19ths century. The poem

Hughes uses the colour red to symbolise Plath’s torment such as “poppies thin and wrinkle-free as the skin on blood” where Hughes connects Plath to poppies which have connotations of blood and death. The effect of this compounds the symbolism of the colour red, ultimately depicting Plath as a tortured soul. However, in contrast, Hughes reflects that at times Plath was untroubled by her psychological issues, such as when “kingfisher blue silks from San Francisco/ folded your pregnancy”. The poet’s use of the kingfisher uses the bird in flight as a symbol for the freedom which Plath occasionally experienced when separated from her obsession with her father.
The rhetorical question at the end of this stanza also emphasises the sarcastic tone. In the sixth stanza the bullies are compared to ‘dry rot’ in a metaphor. This is done to highlight how to Peters the bullies were like a bad disease that he did not want and that they caused him pain. The final stanza begins with ‘so’ which highlights the sarcastic tone. The third line repeats the sound of ‘ess’ which draws attention to this line which talks about how Peters is now
Are you yet living?”. By Benedick referring to Beatrice as Lady Disdain, he is implying to her and those around him that he sees Beatrice as a contemptuous lady meaning she is very scornful and see’s others as beneath her consideration. However, again like in Beatrice’s line when she referred to Benedick as ‘Signor Mountanto’, Benedick is insulting Beatrice in a way which contains some form of respect, this being how he called her ‘Lady’, giving her a level of status. Which are two opposites again, as it contrasts with Disdain which he has then entitled her afterwards. The second part of Benedicks line is ‘Are you yet living?’.
