Why does Edwin Arlington Robinson choose to narrate the poem “Richard Cory” from the perspective of a townsperson?

English

PLATO

The people of the town in which Richard Cory lives belong to a low socioeconomic background, while Richard Cory is a rich, well-mannered gentleman, envied by everyone in town, as seen in these lines:  

And he was rich—yes, richer than a king—  

And admirably schooled in every grace:  

In fine, we thought that he was everything  

To make us wish that we were in his place.

By choosing one of the townsfolk as narrator, Robinson relates everything Richard Cory does and has through envy. This perspective also helps highlight the shock of Cory’s suicide at the end of the poem. Cory’s suicide depicts irony, as Cory was a man who seemed to have everything but chose to give it all up by taking his own life.

Use sensory language and describe the sunset.
maxonik [38]

Answer:

You can describe the sunset using the five senses.

Sight: What colors are there? Vibrant pink? Dull blue? Blinding white? Also mention the shapes. Do you see a perfect sphere (the sun)? Wispy clouds? Pinpricks of stars appearing?

Hearing: Is there wind in the background? Is it quiet as everyone falls asleep? Do you notice your own breathing?

Smell: Kind of hard, but depending on the time of year, you could mention the smell of flowers, freshly cut grass, or fireplaces burning.

Taste: Harder than smell - maybe you could mention food you've been eating or something cozy you've been drinking while you watch? You can skip this sense if you want.

Touch: Describe where you are. Are you sitting on fine dirt? A scratchy, fraying lawn chair? The rough roof? Also mention the temperature - are you shivering from the cold or sweating from the heat?

Try to come up with your own descriptions and don't forget to use a lot of adjectives! Good luck!
