DONNE’S METAPHYSICAL POETRY: A NEW THEORY OF LOVE

Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Generally, Donne is read and taught as a metaphysical poet and not a theorist. The paper aims to present Donne as a theorist of love, and discusses multidimensional aspects of his theory implicitly presented in his poetry. Through thematic analysis of his poetry, his theory can be established on various key points, of which ardent, platonic, spiritual, carnal, cynical, brutal, flirtatious and venomous ones are significant.
