It is probably because they heard their relatives talk about it from the generations of relatives that fought on either side of the Civil War. What it shows is that states like Arkansas and Kentucky, which had normally been associated with the Southern states and their traditions, were somehow caught on the border between the Union states and the Confederate states. Some of their people were for slavery, while many were opposed to it. These borders often became the sites of great battles, which forced peacemakers on either side to have to choose sides.…

    In “A Barred Owl,” by Richard Wilbur, and “The History Teacher,” by Billy Collins, both of the poets attempt to sugar-coat the truth to children in their poems by using the ignorance of the children to their advantage. In “A Barred Owl,” Parents tell their child that the noises it hears at night is just the owl talking to it, when, in reality, the noises are the owl snatching up a small animal to eat. Similarly, to protect the children’s innocence in “The History Teacher,” the history teacher embellishes major events to make them seem not nearly as bad as they were. In both of these poems, the parents and the teacher both think they are doing right by the children by portraying innocent explanations to protect them from the harsh realities…

    Hawk Roosting Analysis

    Ted Hughes uses many poetic techniques to give an insight as to his outlook on an aspect of life. He shows us his outlook on the natural world and his fascination with powerful animals of nature as he does in ‘Hawk Roosting’ by depicting a hawk as an all-powerful leader. However, I feel the poem predominantly exhibits human ideas existing in the natural world by using the hawk as a metaphor for humans and their power and control over society. Through this we see Hughes’ outlook on human society.…
