For my project I looked at the following poem "Demons" by Alexander Pushkin. You may access the full text of the poem here.
Speaker
In this section I would talk about the speaker of the poem.
Imagery
- "Quote 1"--In this example of auditory imagery, Pushkin vividly describes the howling of the wind.
- "Quote 2"--This is my explanation of quote 2.
Figurative Language
- "Quote"- In this metaphor, Pushkin compares apples to the sun. This adds to the bright and cheery effect of the poem.
Tone
This poem, which is about a children's soccer game, has a happy tone. I will add another sentence of elaboration.
Theme
The theme of this poem is that love lasts forever, even in the face of adversity. I would elaborate on how I know that here, but I won't.
About Alexander Pushkin
Alexander Pushkin was born in Russia. His great-grandfather was African. Pushkin is Russia's most beloved poet; every child memorizes his poetry in school. He also wrote plays and short stories. He died from being shot in the stomach in a duel. You can visit a monument on the spot where he was shot in a park in the suburbs of St. Petersburg.
