In the poem Laura, by the speaker, Laura is described as a "divine woman" with deep eyes, golden hair and graceful movements like an angel. The poem "Laura" by Italian poet Francesco Petrarch, illustrates a man's obsession for years with a woman and her physical beauty where he describes her as the love of his life.

EXPLANATION

Laura is a poem by Petrarch, an Italian poet. Laura is a love poem. It is said that this poem was written for about 20 years. Most of these poems are included Canzoniere or Rime. Laura in this poem is suspected to be Laura de Noves. Laura de Noves is a woman and a mother from Avignon, France. But because Petrarch gave no clue who Laura really was, some readers suggested another Laura's name. Some critics believe that Laura is not a fictional character, not inspired by one particular person.

Based on the poem, Petrarch was supposed to meet Laura for the first time on 6 April 1327 at a Church of Sts. Claire, Avignon. In his poetry, he seems to have made Laura a lifelong obsession, even until his death on April 6, 1348.

- What do you think death meant when he said: 'A SMALL BUT NOTEWORTHY NOTE I've seen so many young men
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

When Death said "A SMALL BUT NOTEWORTHY NOTE I've seen so many young men over the years who think they're running at other young men. They are not. They're running at me," I believe he meant this: young men in battle see their adversaries as each other. This viewpoint gives them a certain expectation of what will happen. However, in actuality they do battle with Death. Death does not mention, however, that young men’s inaccurate understanding, whether devised by themselves or promoted by their superiors, provides the foundation for all battles to take place.
