Recapping Week 1 - Metaphor How does metaphoric language work? What kind of meaning does it produce? – Petrarch – comparison transforms/elevates the object – Shakespeare – refusal of comparison = “realistic” meaning, paradoxically still operates through comparison – Donne – metaphysical conceit, mechanical, not sensual comparisons = philosophical meanings, detached from convention – Heaney – extended, narrative metaphors, laced with underlying nationalist, classed meanings – H.D. – ?

Oread Whirl up, sea— whirl your pointed pines, splash your great pines on our rocks, hurl your green over us, cover us with your pools of fir. Nature imagery, mythological references Form of a command Unclear primary and secondary objects. Unclear pronoun referents (your/our) What if the lack of clarity around these terms is the point? What is the “meaning” of this broken metaphor?

Poetry Week II Art, Writing and Representation

Week 2! – Keats – Romantic (1820) – Browning – Victorian (1842) In addition, each of these poems contain a common theme: Poems about art/artworks What does art do? What does it mean to represent something in pictures or words?

Keats’s “Ode to a Grecian Urn”

Form – The Ode Lyric poetry defined by elevated, reverential language Usually written to praise or celebrate someone or something; meant for public address Classical Ode (descended from Greek Drama) contained three ten-line stanzas: the strophe, antistrophe, and epode

Ode on a Grecian Urn THOU still unravish'd bride of quietness, Thou foster-child of Silence and slow Time, Sylvan historian, who canst thus express A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme: What leaf-fringed legend haunts about thy shape 5 Of deities or mortals, or of both, In Tempe or the dales of Arcady? What men or gods are these? What maidens loth? What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape? What pipes and timbrels? What wild ecstasy? 10

Ode on a Grecian Urn Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on; Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone: Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave 15 Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare; Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss, Though winning near the goal—yet, do not grieve; She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair! 20

Ode on a Grecian Urn Ah, happy, happy boughs! that cannot shed Your leaves, nor ever bid the Spring adieu; And, happy melodist, unwearièd, For ever piping songs for ever new; More happy love! more happy, happy love! 25 For ever warm and still to be enjoy'd, For ever panting, and for ever young; All breathing human passion far above, That leaves a heart high-sorrowful and cloy'd, A burning forehead, and a parching tongue. 30

Ode on a Grecian Urn Who are these coming to the sacrifice? To what green altar, O mysterious priest, Lead'st thou that heifer lowing at the skies, And all her silken flanks with garlands drest? What little town by river or sea-shore, 35 Or mountain-built with peaceful citadel, Is emptied of its folk, this pious morn? And, little town, thy streets for evermore Will silent be; and not a soul, to tell Why thou art desolate, can e'er return. 40

Ode on a Grecian Urn O Attic shape! fair attitude! with brede Of marble men and maidens overwrought, With forest branches and the trodden weed; Thou, silent form! dost tease us out of thought As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral! 45 When old age shall this generation waste, Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st, 'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.' 50
