His intent to metaphorically bring attention to the psyche of society‚ brought upon by WWII‚ through animals and the disconnection from nature is expressed in both ‘The Jaguar’ and ‘Wodwo’. These poems focus on the centrality of consciousness‚ the flaws of humanity and Hughes concern with the need to reconnect with nature due to the trauma of the twentieth century. Hughes is

Hughes paints an extremely vivid

    “Mooses” The poem “Mooses”‚ by Ted Hughes‚ is about two mooses that find themselves ugly and not attractive. But my thesis is‚ mooses are large mentally challenged animals.

The author thinks that the moose is mentally challenged because he states‚ “And why am I so ugly?” This shows that he is mentally challenged because‚ in some cases‚ looks can show a person’s mental capacity. And in this case‚ the author thinks that the mooses’

    inform the responder‚ or to make a comment on the functioning and morality of society.

    “The Jaguar” by Ted Hughes evocatively embraces the imprisonment of zoo animals within the human world of civilization. More specifically of an extraordinary jaguar. Hughes beautifully uses a variety of poetic techniques such as onomatopoeia‚ enjambment‚ sensory images‚ similes‚ and alliteration to illustrate the contrast between the stoic existence of the other animals and the untameable spirit of the jaguar. The poem truly manifests the greatness of this wild creature and wonderfully demonstrates

    Pike by Ted Hughes Tone Similar to what I’ve just said above. I think it is two tone: (1) quiet awe and appreciation for the perfection of nature; and (2) reserved and respectful due to the inherent danger of this ruthless killing machine. This should sound a little bit like Hunting Snake and would probably provide a suitable comparison. Theme Here is a complex appreciation of the beauty and splendour of nature‚ mixed in with a critical comment on mankind and human nature. Mankind is put in context
