ESSAY ON: Trochaic, Catalectic Death in A. E. Houseman

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: Everyone dies, and in sweet death, there are two opposing forces, grief and celebration, both aspects in which the living participate in death to recover from their loss. In To an Athlete Dying Young, A.E. Houseman uses a mix of iambic and non-iambic elements to tell the rhythm of death from the viewpoint of those left behind. His constant mixture of rhythm deals with the internal turbulence death causes and provides a lasting eulogy to poetic form and athlete. Bibliography lists 1 source. jvAthDyi.rtf
