Personal Response to Mr Bleaney In the poem Mr Bleaney by Philip Larkin the poet portrays a theme of loneliness. And not only does the poem suggest a feeling of solitude and emptiness the poet also deliberately uses langue and poet techniques to emphasise the theme he’s going for. The title of the poem itself is of a person whose first name is unknown to us. It creates a sense that it is irreverent to us and that Mr Bleaney is not of much importance. The lacking of strong syllables in the title

Philip Larkin- “Here” analysis Nick Webb The poem "Here" by Philip Larkin is a descriptive poem on Larkin’s travel from the countryside to the city of Hull‚ where Larkin lived for the last thirty years of his life.

In Philip Larkin’s collection‚ ‘The Whitsun Weddings’ and Dannie Abse’s collection ‘Welsh Retrospective’‚ both poets create a sense of place as they write about their own environments. Larkin uses a more detached observation as he uses a third person viewpoint‚ seen in ‘Here’ and ‘The Whitsun Weddings’‚ where he shows the journey of life. This differs to Abse‚ who presents a personal connection with the place and in the poems ‘Last Visit to 198 Cathedral Road’ and ‘Return to Cardiff’; Abse uses these

There are only a few similarities between ’Afternoons’‚ by Philip Larkin‚ and ’Churning Day’‚ by Seamus Heaney. These feature mainly in the structure of the two poems.
