In this excerpt from The Crossing‚ by Cormac McCarthy‚ the subject has killed a wolf and is presently brooding over his feelings regarding the fallen creature. His thoughts are displayed in a rather convoluted manner‚ many of which offset one another‚ and can cause confusion for the reader.

Diction plays an enormous role in expressing

The poetic techniques employed by Plath succeed in making the world of her poetry a strange and terrifying one. I agree with the above statement as I feel that the world of Plath’s poetry is made strange and often terrifying by her use of poetic techniques. In my opinion the poetic techniques that aid most in making the world of her poetry strange and terrifying would be the use of allegory‚ imagery‚ similes and metaphors and also the use of words with ominous connotations. The poems that I will

“I am vertical‚” begins Sylvia Plath‚ before she pivots and reveals her true feelings with the first line: “But I would rather be horizontal” (1). In her March 1961 poem “I am Vertical‚” Sylvia Plath sets up her own coordinate plane consisting of the vertical axis and the horizontal axis. The vertical axis stands for all things human‚ and in the eyes of Plath‚ the plight of her own humanity. The horizontal axis represents the plane of the natural world‚ and later‚ comes with the darker implication

Adam Kirsch has written that some of Plath’s works‚ like "Daddy"‚ are self-mythologizing and suggests that readers should not interpret the poem as a strictly "confessional"‚ autobiographical poem about her actual father.
