 TARTARY By Walter De La Mare Critical analysis of the poem Discuss the poem TARTARY as a Romantic poem How does the poet takes us in the realm of imaginaton in the poem TARTARY. Main idea To have an escape from life and it's consuming persuits is a permanent wont with the writers of the modern times. Being a modern wrier, Walter is also obsessed with the desire to run away from the worldly occupations which have eaten into his soul and rendered him quite hollow and barren on the intellectual level.

TARTARY is, infact , the beautiful spot that the poet has imaginatively built for himself in the realm of his mind for the sole purpose of having moments of rapturous Bliss in his spare time.

THE REBEL By D.J.ENRIGHT  Critical analysis of the poem Difference between the two categories of rebels  Bring out the element of humor and irony  D.J. Enright's portrait of a rebel is keen subtle and witty. Elaborate. In the human world, rebels or nonconformists are usually of two categories. The first category is of those who are intellectually mature and every action of theirs is guided and controlled by a well thought out philosophy or ideology. These rebellous people are really praise worthy in the sense that they have a well defined humanitarian goal before them and make all sort of sacrifices for the particular realization of the goal they fix for themselves in life.

She wastes away all her physical and mental energies in plying domestic chores. She rears children without ever having moments of genuine bliss and relaxation all her life. As we have hinted at earlier, this poem pertains to the myriad tasks that a woma...
