on illusions and natural images. Whether we like it or not they were created by great men. This pops a question in our mind. If someone hates Metaphysical poetry‚ should he act like it didn’t exist at all? Lucky for us this question was answered by Eliot. He said a poet is not an individual who is separate from the rest of literary history.

Durkheim focused on social solidarity as one of the important functions of a social order: individuals had a defined place in the world that was created and reinforced by the social values of morality‚ religion‚ and patriotism. He observed that these strands of solidarity are stronger or weaker in different societies‚ and he also observed that some modern social forces tend to break down
