Why does Housman compare life to the blossoming of a cherry tree?

Paul [167]3 years ago

Housman compares life to the blossoming of a cherry tree because a person's life is much like a cherry tree.

A cherry tree blossoms like a young person. However, the blossoms do not last forever, much like life. Therefore, we have to enjoy the blossoms -- and our lives -- while we can. 

He says that if you only enjoy the cherry tree when it blossoms (in the spring) then you will not get a lot of time to enjoy it. That's why at the end of the poem he goes "to see the cherry hung with snow." He will enjoy the cherry tree all year round, instead of just once a year.

In the same way, we have to enjoy life all the time, not just some of the time.

Why did orvell write animal. 100 word essay
Digiron [165]

Because through satire, he makes an allegory criticizing the model of totalitarian society, more specifically of the Soviet Union created by the Stalinist regime. In the case of "Rebellion on the Farm," he does so through a fable, in which parallels are represented in the animals

In this way, we can understand the corruption, betrayal and lies towards the people that existed during Stalin's dictatorship in the Soviet Union.
