personalities and experiences that create the stories of their life. Sometimes these stories are shared with everyone and sometimes they are hidden. The hidden identity of William Carlos Williams ironically is everywhere in his poetry. In, The Thinker, the overall happy theme secretly represents a sad and disconnected part of his life. Williams dark and light times in his life influenced his work and even if his life looked wonderful, secretly there were many challenging factors he went through as his success

William Carlos Williams attended Horace Mann High School, where he began to practice poetry. He started attending after he and his mother and brother returned to the United States. At this time he also decided to pursue his dreams of becoming a doctor and writer. When he finished high school he enrolled into the Philadelphia University. He was a 19 year old student he went to study the medical field and received an MD. Before he began to work full time at the hospital, he was an intern. Later he

assortment of cultural, art, and political movements. Perhaps nobody took as full of an advantage of the concept of modernism as poets did, expanding the possibilities of their works to unimaginable lengths. Poets such as Langston Hughes, William Carlos Williams, Gertrude Stein, and many others employed literary devices to portray important messages that they often buried in their works. From the use of these literary devices such as metaphors, imagery, and symbolism these poets were able to portray

The poem I chose was “The Red Wheelbarrow”, by William Williams. This I a very short poem, and still delivers great imagery and description. There is the speaker who is the only one speaking and is speaking towards a red wheelbarrow and chickens. In line one the word depends appears and from then I saw how it is speaking in regards of something important. Also when I looked back I noticed it was an essential because Williams said so much”, both words make the reader see how it was just not important

The point of view in William Williams “The Use of Force” lets him cover up the brutality and sickness in what seems to be an ordinary patient analysis. While this story contains brutality and a demented atmosphere it also contains an unexpected twist in the plot. The legitimacy of these in “The Use of Force” relies heavily on the author’s point of view and how an underlying desire for evil is covered up within a doctor’s visit. William’s point of view prevails because of his diction, plot, and style

pointed out. Williams is particularly noted for his long line, which achieves the most surprising effects through a repetition in the fashion of Gertrude Stein (Migid, 1964, p.282), by using archaic words, introducing unexpected “literary bookish words” and ironically elegant phrase turns, which brings about a stylized representation of the Southern diction, which is more conscious, more vague, but also much more imaginative than the Northern speech. Being a Southern writer, Tennessee Williams was accustomed

Poems of two famous poets will be analyzed, these are Wallance Stevens’ “Anecdote of Jar” and “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird” and William Carlos Williams’ “The Red Wheelbarrow”. Stevens won a Pulizer Prize for Poetry but spent almost whole his life working as an executive for an insurance company. In one of his poems “Anecdote of the Jar” he talks about a Jar “gray and bare” placed in Tennessee

paragraphs. They often tested different ways by which to convey their messages by playing with syntactic organization and line breaks. William Carlos Williams, perhaps best known for his experimentation with line breaks and sentence structure, avidly experiments with the effects produced by the alteration of lines and sentences. In his poem “To a Poor Old Woman,” Williams writes the same sentence: “They taste good to her” four times within his poem, but changes which word of the sentence receives the

Humans are inherently tied to the natural world. From changing the way they think to affecting the way they act, nature tends to have a certain degree of power over the lives’ of all people. Two poems, “The Widow’s Lament in Springtime,” by William Carlos Williams, and “River- Merchant’s Wife,” by Ezra Pound, use the strife of people experiencing sentiments of loss to explore the intricacies of the relationship that people share with the natural world and its effect on them. In “Widow’s Lament in Springtime

different interpretations. For example, Collins state that he asks his readers to “hold…up [the poem] to the light…/ press an ear against its hive…/walk inside…probe [your] way out.” Collins’ style is similar to the style used in the “Poem” by William Carlos Williams. He uses a cat to movements in the “jamcloset” to explain to his reader how we should read poetry. The cat takes its time to get around the “jamcloset/ first the right/forefoot/carefully…/the hind” stepping down onto the pantry. We must take
