Assignment: Getting the Meaning Across: A Poetry Analysis
Bitter Fruit of the Tree by Sterling A. Brown
Outline:
I. Introduction
Thesis Statement: In consequences of race’s discrimination, few generations of one family lived through violence, pressure and suffer and family could not do anything, just not to be bitter.
II. Main Body
1. The rhythm and rhyme of the poem is first example of accent on negative relation of the author to the violence.
2. The imagery is a perfect way to transfer from current time to the poem’s events.
3. The sensory language is a key to encourage the feelings.
III. Conclusion
The one thing that family could respond to all negative attitudes toward them was bitterness and even this was prohibited.
In consequences of race’s discrimination, few generations of one family lived through violence, pressure and suffer and family could not do anything, just not to be bitter. The author used irony structure in order to show the powerless of the family’s race, such powerless that family’s members did not have a chance to be bitter on this lawlessness. The extraordinary author’s style gave us an opportunity to feel the whole emotions, that writer wanted us to feel.
The rhythm and rhyme of the poem is first example of accent on negative relation of the author to the violence. Brown highlights the consonants, especially “b”. The words bitter, better, bloody, beaten and etc. “Bitter” is used more often, as it is main word that exactly explains the characters’ feelings. “B’ is associates with pain and negative words are attracting the attention of the reader: bitter, bloody, beaten. Moreover, the sound of “B” in sad poem sounds for the reader as beat. The rhyme of the poem is also complicated; so it is one more prove that author tries to show hard times. Mostly the rhyme words stand in the middle of the line, for instance first-born – husband, swamplands – at last.
