Compare And Contrast The Way Plath Presents The Speaker’s Fears In Thre

Compare And Contrast The Way Plath Presents The Speakers Fears In ThreeOf The Poems That You Have StudiedSylvia Plath writes poems that are thoughtful and intriguing. They fork out liable(p) and subtle suggestions that leave her poems open forinterpretation by the reader. Her poems mainly rush themes with eitheran odd or disturbing nature. The iii poems I have chosen to compareand contrast are Mirror, Bluebeard and The Arrival of The Bee turning point.In the three poems there are several different moods that are shownthroughout. In Bluebeard the utterer remains in control all thetime, she is defiant and makes her own choices in stating, I amsending back the key she is rejecting him and it is always her pickaxe whether or not to. However throughout Bluebeard the loudspeakers vestige remains constant and never changes unlike in The Arrival of TheBee Box in which her disposition changes constantly. At the beginningof the poem the poem begins with the speaker describing the quoin c almlyI ordered this, clean wood case this creates a winning image eventhough it is a box of maniacs. The box is full of something verydangerous. If the box were to be opened accordingly the speaker would beunleashing hundreds of bees and yet she describes the box as beingsomething pleasant instead of ominous and foreboding. Then as the poemprogresses the speaker becomes haunt and fascinated with the boxand is unable to leave it, absorbed by the superpower that she possesses everyplace the bees. Its like a Roman mob, could be referring to the pointthat the emperor in ancient Rome had complete control over the livesof the some people and she now could similarly let all the bees, die,I need feed them nothing, I am the owner.... ...oughts in the poems, it is definitiveand final. The many stanzas allow Sylvia Plath to change the speakersmood and thoughts in from each one stanza. This, along with the language usedwhich is awkward and difficult to read, has the desired exertion of reflecting her feelings of confusion. She seems to be trapped betweenher feelings of obsession and fear of the box she knows she piece of tail notopen. This is similar to the myth of Pandoras Box where the womanknows she butt jointt open the box as there is danger in it and yet issomehow strangely drawn to itIn general Sylvia Plath is made in her endeavour to portray thefears of others in her poems. She is very skilful at writing aboutreal feeling and involving her life in her poems to dish incorporatereal life situations into them. And by involving her fears into thepoems this helps many people to subsume to them.
