The Little Black Boy
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper discussing the poem of the same title by William Blake. In the examination of this poem we illustrate three separate themes within the poem. These themes are innocence, faith, and lack of worth. By illustrating these themes we gain a very accurate picture of the speaker and learn things about innocence and experience. Unlike other poems, which illustrate innocence as something to be treasured, this poem illustrates a sad innocence that is better grown out of. No additional sources cited.

The Tyger, The Lamb, & The Mill In William Blake
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing how the use of image or metaphor in three of William Blake's poems can both illuminate and cloud his meaning. The paper shows that if the concepts being alluded to are well-known and well-understood, reference to them enhances the intelligibility of the poem, but if the sources are themselves obscure, reference to them only makes the poem more difficult to understand. No additional sources cited.
