Preposition In Love One Another

James Fenton and Carol Ann Duffy are both contemporary poets. Their poems ‘In Paris with You’ and ‘Quickdraw’ both include the themes of the pain of love. This essay compares how the two poets present the pain of love in their poems, exploring things such as imagery, vocabulary and form and structure.

The author integrates many figures of speech to express the theme of love and unity. Located in the third stanza on the last line, the alliteration of the L sound strengthens the idea of the two couple’s love since L sounds are long and they last, lingering in the reader’s mind. Another figure of speech used is the phrase changing tide which is a metaphor for representing the “highs” and “lows” of one’s relationship. Every stanza always starts with the phrase; sitting on the beach chairs, this repetition reinforces the idea of relaxation and enjoyment the two couples are having. They are still united after enduring obstacles life throws at them because of the repeated phrase holding hands.

Many of these poems describe romantic relationships and the relationship’s effect on the speakers’ behaviors. Whether the speaker feels lovesick, obsessive, or excited, the behavior of the speaker is different than it was when he/she was not in love. These love poems from Deir el-Medina depict the effects of a romantic relationship on the behavior of the people involved.

The plot unfolds in Cartagena in the early twentieth century, at which time the signs of falling in love could be confused with the symptoms of cholera. This love story of cholera takes place in a town in the Caribbean port, perhaps in Cartagena, a town where it is very hot, tropical, a people full of prejudices, and of course the time when history develops influences a lot in that. In those times, cholera had wrought havoc on the health of the villagers, that terrible disease had caused many deaths and anger was confused with the problems of love and sentiment. At the beginning of the work, it developed in a situation that had never appreciated in others, began with the end and ends with the beginning of an inevitable love despite all the

The couplet of this sonnet renews the speaker's wish for their love, urging her to "love well" which he must soon leave. But after the third quatrain, the speaker applauds his lover for having courage and adoration to remain faithful to him. The rhyme couplet suggests the unconditional love between the speaker and his

The admiration of courtly love is no more prevalent theme in Marie's lais than on “Yonec” and “Lanval”. These two lais are showing very aristocratic views on socially states; love of nobility. A love that cannot be explained by a commoner or peasant that cannot show status has nothing to offer, for courtly love because a peasant has no chivalry. This courtly love is often secret in that a knight and a lady are not married to one another but to a different partner making the story adulterous. That secret at the end makes the story ecstatic and tragic; the adhesive of the story is the passion of love that is displayed making the store ecstatic and the secret is the tragedy that love cannot be acknowledged. The principal argument of this essay is to understand courtly love in Marie de France’s lais.

This essay will be exploring the use of language and imagery in the poem ‘Valentine’ by Carol Ann Duffy to emphasise certain emotions within the text. This poem refers to the dark side of love and relationships several times, for example; “Its fierce kiss will stay on your lips.” This creates a different atmosphere to the stereotypical love poems, which are known for their mention of red roses and satin hearts. Although the title gives us an impression of a cliché-filled poem, as we continue reading, the poem seems like more of a warning than an encouragement to involve oneself in relationships and commitment,

Furthermore, what would love be if one could not gather any satisfaction from this event? In The Lais of Marie de France the happiness of love is a very significant factor, it is the determination that drives the passionate relationships that flourish within the lais. In the story of “Laustic”, the lovers are never in physical acquaintance but seem to gaze at each other every night

Love is perhaps one of the most contested issues in the world. No one has a precise definition of what love really should look or feel like. Most people have resorted to use their own experiences in love to effectively derive its true meaning. Through these experiences, philosophers have argued that the definition of love varies greatly depending on whether it was given by a man or a woman. This is however not the case. As proven by the narratives of Beauvoir and Sartre, the definitions of love derived from the experiences of both men and women are quite similar. Consequentially, Beauvoir’s account of the woman in love sheds important light on Sartre’s conflicting thought about love. By first highlighting the concepts of love as stated by Beauvoir, this text seeks to establish how Beauvoir’s account of love lays a vital foundation for Sartre’s.

The idea of courtly love and its shift are discussed in great detail. In her work, courtly love is a concept of love freely exchanged between members of the aristocracy. It was loosed based on the concept of vassalage “…the military relation of knight to lord, distinguished itself (in its early days) by being freely entered into” (Kelly-Gadol 178). The concept of courtly love derived from feudalism, according to the article. Courtly love gave women power over their bodies and over whom they loved regardless of whom they married.

       In the traditional Romance narrative, there is some desirable object whose consummation is the driving preoccupation of the text's protagonist. The aspiration of the Romantic hero is to capture that elusive object that will, nevertheless, consistently out-strip him. These heroes are intimately acquainted with the pain of the loss and suffer deeply for feeling so acutely. However, loss itself, is essential to the equation and is, in fact, a large portion of what establishes the thing as desirable.

While the theme of love itself, may it be positive or negative, is reoccurring, Marie’s presentation of romantic relationships and their differing qualities can be considered a theme alone. In “Guigemar”, the relationship between the knight and his lady represents loyalty, and an ability to heal or cure. Yet, the relationship between the beast and his wife in “Bisclavret” demonstrates the selfish and traitorous behavior that can occur between partners, especially if one has proved to be adulterous.

In conclusion, with the growing role of women in the Venetian High Renaissance came a plethora of influential poets including Veronica Franco, who masterly transforms the clichés’ of courtly love into bluntly sexual analogy in her poems. In addition, the same cynical approach to chivalry and courtly love is used by Ludovico Ariosto in his poem “Orlando Furioso,”

Love is expressed differently by all, some like Salamono may tuck it away, only to release it when the lover has left forever. Others , like Marie, choose to boast it to the world without hesitation. This quality is her confidence is herself shining through. She never fails to attest to what she wants “Then she said she wondered if she

For this essay I will be unraveling two poems to find a deeper meaning from The Norton Anthology of World Literature, Volume B. The two poems are “A Lover’s Prize” by Beatrice of Dia and “The Wound of Love” written by Heinrich von Morungen. Heinrich and Beatrice are considered to be medieval lyric poets; however, Beatrice was a medieval lyric poet from France and they are known as troubadour. Beatrice just so happened to be apart of southern France’s trobairitz which was just a tribute to some of the best troubadour of their time. She was married to the Count of Viennois, Guilhem de Poitiers but she was having an affair with another troubadour who went by the name Raimbaut d’Orange and their poetic style was quite similar. However, when it comes to Heinrich von Morungen not much is known about him. From the little we know about Heinrich, we find that, his style of writing fit into the category of Minnesang which means “songs of love”. His lyrics (that have survived) are also some of the greatest in early German history. Nonetheless, these writers have both put forth some impressive work.
