    In his groundbreaking work The Search for Order 1877-1920‚ Robert Wiebe seeks to prove that the drastic changes seen in America at the turn of the century were not disconnected singular events. Instead there was a singular “deep-flowing current‚ which gave unity and meaning to the period as a whole” (VII). This current was the shift from small town American and their values to the new bureaucratically-minded middle class and the development of values to help cope with this new focus of society

His work commonly used the monstrous theme of death and nature‚ using the setting of each piece to examine complex philosophical and social subject matters. The poems I chose to analyze are “The Vanishing Red”‚ “Home Burial”‚ and “Death of a Hired Man.” Each poem exhibits the theme of “death” in their own way as a result of the differences in setting and through

Once bustling streets filled with traders and trishaws were now laid bare‚ with puddles of blood here or there. The cloudless sky that made us feel safe to be under no longer existed; there was only grey
