I need help with the following question: How do the two types of silence differ according to the narrator?
The 2 types are a normal day with no sound and silence as loneliness right? Correct me if I'm wrong. And how do they differ?
By the way, just for fun, what is your opinion about this poem and why? Is it bad, good, horrible, etc.
I will be looking forward to see your answers. Please give me feedback. Thanks! :)|||Not to be confused with Poe's short story, "Silence: A Fable," "Silence-A Sonnet" was first published on January 4, 1840, in the Philadelphia Saturday Courier. After some revision, it was republished in the Broadway Journal on July 26, 1845.
The poem compares the sea and the shore to the body and the soul. There is a death of the body that is silence, the speaker says, that should not be mourned. He does, however, warn against the silent death of the soul.
