About Written by author W. H. Auden – an Anglo-American poet born in England and later a U.S. citizen Modernism/Post-Modernism time period (1907-1973)

Paraphrase and Theme On records, it can seem as if a man has it all. He can have a job, good credit, health insurance, serve the common good, be educated and have money but those statistics are inaccurate representations of the man himself. Theme- Don’t let society determine your identity, and do not conform to it. Tone words- Satirical and critical

Essay Organization I would organize this essay by the different themes of the poem The lack of validity in representing man using the information provided by government surveys Avoiding conformity Thesis Auden, through his use of satire to criticize the federal government and repetition of thoughts, communicates the flaw of “The Unknown Citizen” to his readers. Topic sentences The government statistics regarding the health of its country’s citizens do not accurately represent the essence of those individuals. The information provided and recorded by the government does not determine ones identity.
