THESIS: IN “CALYPSO,” AUDEN DEMONSTRATES HOW LOVE IS SIGNIFICANT IN EVERYONE'S LIFE, BY EXPLAINING THROUGH FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW THAT WITHOUT LOVE THERE IS DESOLATION AND THERE IS NOTHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO DESPITE THE FACT THAT YOU MAY HAVE MONEY OR BE AN IMPORTANT FIGURE IN LIFE. “Calypso” W.H. Auden

Sense: meaning and language Purpose/Effect: Auden wants to convey the understanding that the speaker gives the poem in first person because it gives a better interpretation of how the lover is feeling, instead of it being said in second person. Mood and repetition fall into the theme of love because the speaker keeps emphasizing how much love there is towards that lover. Speaker: Traveling in a rush to meet the love of their life. Point of view: First person “For he is the one that I love to look on The acme of kindness and perfection.” (9-10) Mood: Anxious  “Driver, drive faster and make a good run,” (1). Theme: Distance/ Unified (Love) Repetition:  Love x 6, I love x 2, “Should be standing the one that I love best of all.” (6)

Senses: imagery and symbols Purpose/Effect: The trees shows the brightness with love, and the man shows the loneliness of not having someone to love him. Visual Imagery:  “The woods are bright green on both sides of the line;/ The trees have their loves though they’re different from mine.” (13): both have love for something, but in a different type of way. o “But the poor fat old banker in the sun- parlour car/ Has no one to love him except his cigar.” (15-16): he may have everything money wise but he’s lonely because he cant find love. Symbol Shinning sun, bright= love.

Style: poetry techniques Purpose/Effect: Auden's use of simile and metaphor makes it easier for the reader to be able to compare the love that they share and how the speaker is feeling. Audens use of personification allows the reader to see other comparisons that involve love. Simile: “Fly like the aeroplane, don’t pull up short” (3). -Make no stop like an airplane wouldn’t. Metaphor “For love’s more important and powerful than/ Even a priest or a politician” (19-20). -Compares love to a priest or politician. Personification: “The trees have their loves though they’re different from mine,” (14). Stream of Consciousness: If he’s not there to meet me when I get to town,/ I’ll stand on the pavement with tears rolling down,” (7- 8).

Structure: form, organization, and pattern Purpose/Effect: Auden uses a consistent two-line stanza pattern throughout to emphasize the anxiousness the speaker has to meet up with the lover. Auden’s use of repetition is used to define love associated with different things. Stanza Pattern:  Stanzas are two lines long  Each are one sentence long End-Stopped:  “The woods are bright green on both sides of the line;/The trees have their loves though they’re different from mine.” (13-14). Repetition:  Love x 6  I love x 2

Sound: Purpose/Effect: Each line has a pattern of sound created by rhyme, to show happiness and excitement. End/External Rhyme:  “Driver, drive faster and make a good run/ Down the Springfield Line under the shining sun.” (1-2). Rhyme:  “Fly like the aeroplane, don’t pull up short/ Till you brake for Grand Central Station, New York.” (3-4).

Activity Work in partners: groups of two or three. Step 1: handout questions Step 2: discuss within groups Step 3: come together and share as a class Step 4: little surprise *Discussion questions will be passed out.

Conclusion Despite the fact that people have a strong opinion that money can buy happiness, that isn’t always the case. Auden’s demonstration of how the speaker shows that love is so powerful that nothing can overcome the feeling of it.
