Why Derek Bentley’s execution was important in changing attitudes to Capital Punishment? For serious crimes‚ such as murder‚ the government has introduced a punishment which is known as the Capital punishment. It’s a death penalty for the person who committed a crime.

and create. Derek Walcott‚ in the poem “XIV” from Midsummer‚ illustrates the feeling of being inspired to do something for the rest of his life.

Chapter-VI: Quest for Self in the Poetry of A.K.Ramanujan The identity crisis in the poetry of A.K.Ramanujan escapes easy categorization. The writer who is born and brought up in the Hindu way of life and who has educated himself as a world citizen‚ the conflict between the inner and the outer forms the core of his poetry. The poet’s self is the theatre in which are staged a host of incidents from the past‚ and across which move a number of personae like his grandparents‚ mother‚ father‚ cousins

Sylvia Plath Plath’s poetry depicts her quest for poetic inspiration and vision: In her early poems‚ like ‘Black Rook’‚ Plath sees inspiration as transcendent‚ something that would announce itself to her from the external world. Plath’s language implies that she awaits a visitation of beauty‚ like the Annunciation by the angel in the Bible. Plath longs for an occasional ‘portent’ or ‘back talk from the mute sky’. She doesn’t believe in religious epiphany; but she uses Christian language as an
