Metaphysical Poetry

        The last lesson we talked about Metaphysical Poetry and John Donne .

     Firstly, comparing to Renaissance Era, a lot of things have change in Metaphysical poetry. For example ; love is the main topic in poetry at all times; however in Metaphysical Poems , they used physical love and unusual conceits . Although they used simple language not poetic language , with the help of ''wit''  they wrote marvelous poets. They also wrote their poets with the blend of  emotions and intellectual ingenuity . There was intense unconnected ideas , such as love sometimes connected with math.

    Secondly , the leader of Metaphysical Poetry is John Donne . He was well-educated and intelligent poet. Firstly his poems were about love. After he changed his religion and he became a famous preacher and he began to write religious poems. Because of the belief of other world, he wrote his poems about death. Along with John Donne ; George Herbert , Andrew Marvell and Henry Vaughn are such a great poets.

    To sum up, Metaphysical poems are product of intelligence . In my opinion every one could not write poems which concerned unconnected ideas.
