Fearful Symmetry

In “The Tyger”, William Blake asks the question “What immortal hand or eye / Could frame thy fearful symmetry?” (lines 3-4). Blake is referring to the beauty of the of the tyger’s symmetrical stripes. The connection of this beauty directly correlates to the danger and evil of the creature. This theme is also represented in Roald Dahl’s “Genesis and…

there every single organ sounds. By hearing the movement of the hand or the pace of their feet, you dread and wholeheartedly hate it! I think the author meant that feeling with this poem. I see line 3-4 ‘What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry?’ the perfectionist aspect of God, though vicious and frightening (lines 3-4). Looking at the picture above, by looking into the eyes of a tiger you find yourself gazing at this beast of perfect and graceful strides (fig.…

One of the most beautiful stories in the Bible explains how the world came to exist. The awe-inspiring power, fascinating creativity, and perfect eye for detail that God revealed to mankind in the beginning can bring anyone to their knees, and when men search for the beauty of God in this marvelous world they cannot withstand the amazement that fills them and cannot help but be moved to action, fulfilling their purpose of caring for this world more and more. William Blake in his poem “The Tyger”…

On a casual glance, one would never expect the Songs of Innocence and the Songs of Experience to parallel Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein. The first two are books of poetry romanticizing the simplicity of nature over the rushed boom of the Industrial Revolution, and the later, a horror story about an articulate, yellow skinned monster that inspired a whole subgenre of fiction and films. The connections lie deeper than what a quick read can pick up; they’re in the fiber of the themes of distinction…

the patient that the procedure they will be having is one of the most successful surgeries and is the safest procedure (Rosenbaum, 2013). Since the doctor told me them this, and because of having this same surgery in the past, the patient is not fearful of the effects that come with the surgery in the end (Rosenbaum, 2013). The patient remembers how painful the surgery was and has to stay awake during the surgery to collaborate with the doctor, but they give the patient medicine to forget the…

name goods and how it garnered attention from teenagers. As Adam smith says in the theory of moral sentiments, we morally judge people when we are symmetrical to them. However, being I the sympathetic cycle of exclusivity, we are often faced by the symmetry of judgement, which in turn, determines if we are moral or not. I have always been a thinker but with this business ethics, class, I have greatly sharpened my intellectual capacity to think beyond this class and reflect on the impact of the…

The Lakeland art Museum is the focal point of my report, where I enjoyed many paintings, photographs, and sculptures of many artists both renowned and local. Examples of such would be Pablo Picasso, Francisco De Goya, Hung Liu, and many more. Although the first to catch my eye was that of Liu’s work Working Woman: Millstone 1999, an etching with soft colors, varnish, as well as paint. It depicts two work-worn older Chinese woman operating a millstone the image also depicted red kanji, fruit, and…

The poems I have chosen to analyze are “The Lamb” and “The Tyger” by William Blake. Blake’s opinions about humanity are quite special as well as his visions of Christ and Christianity because he believed in God but not in the church. After reading and comparing the two poems, initially I thought Blake was trying to identify good and evil. Then I saw it more as describing Jesus as the lamb and the devil as the tyger. The Lamb of God being a well-known alias of Jesus made that determination fairly…
