Presentation transcript:

Do-Now: 4/2/2019 Read the poem “Stings” silently ANNOTATE! At the bottom write briefly what you think the main idea of the poem is.

Analyze Poetry

Sylvia Plath 1932-1963 Lived in Boston Massachusetts Poetry associated with the Confessional movement Strong feminist tones in poetry

“Stings” by Sylvia Plath

1st stanza Plath is in control “I hand the combs” It is dangerous work “gauntlets” protect, “the throats of our wrists brave lilies.”

2nd into 3rd verse Uses feminist dialogue “pink flowers”, “sweetness” etc. Shows women can be in control/working. Questions if there is a queen bee at work (end of 3rd)

4th stanza and 5th If there is a queen bee, she describes it being old and withered This suggests Plath’s greatest fear 5th shows her identification with the worker bees as well

6th stanza Plath clearly doesn’t want to identify with the ‘drudges’. The word ‘scurry’ as applied to the bees/women implies lack of respect. They are women who collude with an exploitative system; who consent to their own oppression.

7th stanza Plath has overcome her fears and is now in control of the hive just like the queen bee is

8th stanza An ambiguous ending, this third person could represent many things to Plath: a scapegoat, an innocent bystander, a negligent worker

Main concepts/points Written by Plath to show the relationship between her and her husband. Has feminist tones in writing Themes of slavery and freedom (queen bee, worker bees etc.)

For the remainder of the period: Read Plath’s “The Arrival of the Bee Box” Try and breakdown and explain each stanza like in Stings. There are similar concepts and ideas. Start considering the similarities and differences in the two poems
