An analysis of Thomas Hardy's poem "The Darkling Thrush"
About this book
Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2, 3, University of Regensburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Proseminar "20th-Century British and Irish Poetry", language: English, abstract: For many people, the turn of a year is a suitable occasion for looking back to the events of the past year, but also for speculating what the coming year will bring. At the turn of a century, however, people seem to be even more excited and thoughtful. A poem which was written at the turn of the 20th century is Thomas Hardy's "The Darkling Thrush", which I would like to analyse on the following pages. Firstly, I am going to say some words about the author. Then, I would like to deal with the speech situation, the content and with formal aspects. Lastly, I will analyse the rhetorical figures used by Hardy.
