Casabianca

Although it is a short poem, “Casabianca” has no shortage of meaning and criticisms. Zhou Xiaojing provided a quick backstory for the poem that put much of it in perspective and allowed me to dig deeper into Bishop’s potential meaning. At first, I was not aware that this poem has a dialogue with another poem with the same name written by Felicia Hemans. That poem, much like Bishop, discusses love. Unlike Bishop, Hemans’s poem focuses on one particular form of love which she highly praises: the love
