W.H. Auden was born on 21
February 1907; New York, England .Auden was the first poet who drew his ideas
and imagery from Marx and Freud. W.H. Auden is a poet of the age of anxiety. In
fact the poem begins with the idea of being dialectic and ends in being almost
romantic
Look, Stranger is a poem
about place and scene. This discovers to himself the fascinating beauty of
Dover Cliffs enveloped all around by the sea. Auden feels himself a stranger to
the sight when the sun suddenly leaps up from the bottom of the sea. The poet
asks to the stranger to look at the wonderful scene which is introduced and
enhanced by the first rays of the rising sun. In order experience the beauty,
he is hinted to be completely absorbed in its beauty with silence and calm
spirit. Thus, the music of the waves may go lazily trusting and turning through
the ear like a river course. Then the poet asks to stranger to see the cliffs পাহাড়ের sloping down ঢালু to the sea. There the tall cliffs
stand firm against the dashing waves. The tidalজলোচ্ছ্বাস pulls wash the pebbles down from the
beach every time, they recede form there.
Far away in the bosom of
the sea, the ships look as small as seeds floating on water. They are going to
different countries. The weather is very calm and the water of the harbour lies
like a mirror. The clouds sailing পাড়ি overhead are reflected beautifully in the calm and clear
water of the harbour. This poem expresses sheer নিছক delight in the ocean for itself and
is an exquisite piece of natural description.
