Here, in the first lines of the poem, Milton is already stating his theodicy.

select imagery, however, to expose how the entangling nature of original sin and ultimate forgiveness exist within a modern human context. For example, Dickens repeatedly references gardens in allusion to the Garden of Eden, but he alludes to the garden in twisted ways: paradise is a dilapidated, rotting English garden wrought with sin. Through slight distortions in his allusions, Dickens exposes the complex, often confusing, nature of Biblical text and interpretation. Similarly, Dickens distorts

The Garden of Sows In Plato’s The Republic, Socrates lays out his picture perfect model of a city for humans in his search to define justice. In the Bible’s book of Genesis, God has already created the perfect situation for humans in his Garden of Eden, a Paradise for God, the heavenly host, and man to be together forever.

This brilliant scientist biologically succeeded in creating a beautiful and virtuous daughter, and he succeeded through his experiments in making her deadly to get close to. If one views Rappaccini as a God, creating his own Eden with his own impure purposes, what does this mean?

In the true Garden of Eden, Eve is instructed by God that she is not to eat from the forbidden Tree. However, being tempted by Satan himself she is forced to make an age-old decision, one in which all know the outcome. Satan tempts her with the prospect of knowledge, saying

Andrew Marvell’s “The Garden” is a poem that through logical progression argues its already established point of view. It is a poem of meditation in a particular place, where the place presented influences the course of this meditative state. Even though filled with the imagery of nature the poem takes a rather pessimistic point of view, where it argues that total isolation from society and harmony with nature as the singular best way of living.
