Approaches to death in literature


# The approaches to death in literature :

Hello Readers! 


     Here is my blog as part of thinking activity on the approaches to the death in literature given by Heena ma'am as a part of our subject, which we have  studied,Romantic literature, I hope you are get interest in this discussion, so let's start. 


 As we know that generally people don't want to talk about death, because they consider death as dreadful and frightening as well as painful. 


 But,in literature it's totally opposite, because writer considers "death" is totally different from normal human beings, he was fascinated toward death, for example John keats, the romantic writer, who wrote poems like "ode to Nightingale" He writes 'half in love with' and also want to dei at midnight with 'easeful' death. 


Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
             I have been half in love with easeful Death,
Call'd him soft names in many a mused rhyme,
         To take into the air my quiet breath;
                Now more than ever seems it rich to die,
         To cease upon the midnight with no pain,
                While thou art pouring forth thy soul abroad
                        In such an ecstasy!
         Still wouldst thou sing, and I have ears in vain—
                   To thy high requiem become a sod.


# The other writer and their approaches toward death:

  John Donne 
 
       "Death be not pound" 


 Here, we can find out writer's approaches toward death is totally differ because here Donne considered death as slave and nothing more than small sleep, he write this poem addressing the death as a person. And said that death is slave of four things fate, chance, king and disparate. And also said that we gate eternally after small sleep. And also said to death that not need to be poud instead of frightening like normal human beings. 


 Here William Butler Yeats,gave his opinion on death as one of the most important part and need of life not as dreadful or painful but beyond that something is there which everyone is need. 


 thank you........
