Discuss how the poet’s life has influenced her or his poetry
Next, choose 3 or 4 poems from that poet. You may choose any poems that you want, whether in our eText or from another source, but be sure to use proper citations for each of them.
In a full literary analysis, complete one of the following options:
A) Discuss how the poet’s life has influenced her or his poetry. You may find context from the poet’s childhood, personal experiences, etc. and link them to poems of your choice. Be careful DO NOT give me five pages of biography!
B) Discuss a common thread that links multiple poems from the same author (theme, tone, imagery, etc.).
C) Integrate choices A and B into a fully developed thesis of your own
