In which essay does Thoreau make more elaborate use of metaphor?

English
1 answer:
Klio2033 [76]3 years ago
4 0

The essay by Henry David Thoreau in which he makes more elaborate use of metaphor is "Walden, or, Life in the Woods" (1854).

In this essay, Thoreau uses more elaborate metaphor to convey the ideas of nonindividuality and to show how the human mind is easily influenced as the Earth's soil is marked by the steps of others.

The way in which he describes and metaphorizes nature and human existance in the space of Walden Pond contributes to adapt complex and abstract ideas of humanistic guidance into understandable language.

Read this sonnet, and then complete the sentences that follow. Sonnet 4 by Edmund Spenser Be not dismayed that her unmoved mind
Pavel [41]
The rhyme scheme is ABAB up until the last two lines, which are CC. Rhyme scheme signifies which lines rhyme with each other, depending on the last word in each line. The As correspond with each other, the Bs correspond with each other, and so on.

The main idea of the poem is that one should not to give up pursuing a woman if at first she doesn't seem interested, because when she has finally been won over, her love will last forever. In other words, be patient, because a woman who is not easily wooed will provide the longest form of love.

The poet uses the "metaphor" of burning an oak. A metaphor is a comparison between two seemingly unlike things (in this case a woman/her love and an oak tree) without using the words "like" or "as" (which would make the comparison a simile). 

<span>The poet uses the metaphor of a wound to represent how deep love can go ("Deep is the wound, that dints the parts entire With chaste affects, that naught but death can sever"). </span>
