    The Lamb & The Tyger William Blake “The Lamb” and “The Tyger” are two different poems written by William Blake‚ the first taken from the Songs of Innocence and the second taken from the Songs of Experience. Both poems follow an A-A-B-B rhyme scheme and both focus on the topic of religion. Many sources have recommended the reading of the two poems together and I‚ myself‚ found that it was an experiment worth trying. When I first read “The Lamb” I was sure that it would be a poem with Jesus

    Reading Deeper (An Analysis of Blake’s Use of Archetypes) As English poets emerged in the eighteenth century‚ William Blake’s name became a topic of discussion. He was a well-known poet who had one eye on mystical visions and the other on the real social ills around him. The way he expressed his mystical vision side was through archetypes‚ plot patterns‚ character types‚ or ideas with emotional power and widespread appeal. These were sometimes viewed as ways to describe truths about humanity. “In

    I chose to write about‚ “The Sick Rose‚” by William Blake. I found this poem to be very interesting. It can be interpreted in many different ways. In a biography about symbolism by The Hutchinson Unabridged Encyclopedia‚ they point out the fact that Blake uses many words such as bed‚ worm‚ love‚ and joy. All of these words have a strong relationship with love and sex. However the poem is not all about love it is also about the worm that brings the disease about and destroys everything. When I first

    “The Tyger” by: William Blake. Summary I believe the tiger and the lamb are metaphors for characteristics of humanity. With the human race being superior to all other creatures‚ how is it that we have those that are preferred lamb like and others that are feared as much as the tiger? What was he/she thinking? Why did you make us capable of being so devastating and carnivorous? So I pretty much think that William Blake meant the tyger to be use tiger‚ else it would go for an animal. The

    Sweeper William Blake The Chimney Sweeper‚ by William Blake‚ has two versions. One‚ written in 1789‚ which is twice as long as the second‚ written in 1794. However‚ both versions paint a picture of how child labor was during the time; one having more of a somber side‚ while the other is more hopeful. None-the-less‚ both were very important writings and hit the culture hard enough to encourage a change. Blake did this by using powerful forms of word choice‚ imagery‚ and tone. Blake used many

    A Poison Tree by William Blake can be interpreted to be a metaphor that explains a truth of human nature.

The opening stanza sets up everything for the entire poem‚ from the ending of anger with the “friend‚” to the continuing anger with the “foe.” Blake startles the reader with such clarity of the poem‚ which is often missed in Blake’s poems‚ and with metaphors that
