Different Aspects of Love in Poetry
WHAT DO WE LEARN ABOUT DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF LOVE FROM POETRY SPANNING
A PERIOD OF SEVEREAL HUNDRED YEARS?
We have studied the greatest love poems ever written by men and women.
These poets have used poems to emphasise their feelings and
experiences of love and relationship.
From these love poems written by famous poets, we find out that love
is a complex subject matter and different poets intend to illustrate
the aspects of love in their poems.
These aspects are categorised into three different sections: firstly
we see the joy of love; secondly the sexual desires of love and
finally the pain of love.
All of these aspects of love come from different periods of time. This
era includes: William Shakespeare-16th Century; Donne and Marvell-17th
Century; Byron, Wordsworth and Clare-19th Century: time of the
romantic poets, Barrett Browning and Rossetti-late 19th Century: time
of the Victorian poets.
The following essay will express how these poets deal with the aspects
of love and what we learn about different aspects of love from poetry
spanning a period of several hundred years.
“Sonnet 18”, written by William Shakespeare (1564-1616). He was an
English playwright and a poet, recognised in much of the world as the
greatest of all dramatists. Scholars have written thousands of books
and articles about his plots, characters, themes and language. He is
the most widely quoted author in history, and his plays have probably
been performed more times than those of any other dramatist.

Shakespeare was also known for his plays and his sonnets are still
among the world’s best-loved poems.

...mparing it to positive and personal things and also believing that
your love will last forever even after death will signify the trust
and love that two people shared. In addition I have learnt you can use
persuasive devices to convince your partner to give into your desires
and also the loss of a loved one or the disappointment of love when it
isn’t returned can have a profound effect on a person’s well being
mentally and physically, this was expressed through the emotional and
dramatic Romantic poems.
To summarise, I have learnt that love can lead to happiness, where
there is trust, love and care between two people to the sexual stress,
where you want your partner to give into the sexual side of love to
the end or loss of love, where someone you love dearly dies or the
person you love doesn’t feel the same way about you and your love
isn’t returned.
Each of Ovid’s Amores presents a slightly different view of love. Many of his poems have links between them, for example 3.4 and 2.19 (which both involve a custos and puella), but they also differ hugely (3.4 and 2.19 present almost opposing arguments). This leads to the conclusion that perhaps Ovid is highlighting how love changes according to the situation.
Type 1: Is an Autoimmune disorder in which no insulin is being produced affecting only 5-10% of people with diabetes and is more common in Caucasians with a typical onset before the age of 30. There aren’t many risk factors for Type 1 Diabetes, but some known ones include, Family History, Genetics, and Geography. Other possible ones are Viral exposure or viral infections, early drinking of Vitamin D (cow’s milk), and other dietary factors such as drinking water with nitrates may also increase the risk.
The Range of Feelings Associated with Love in Catullus and Lesbia' Poems Of Catullus’s poems, the Lesbia poems are the most memorable, particularly as they contain such a wide range of feelings and emotions. Whilst we do not know what order the poems were written in, it is tempting to arrange them in a progression from constant love, to confusion and despair and finally hatred. Poem 87 appears to be at the beginning of the relationship between Catullus and Lesbia. The symmetry of the couplets beginning “nulla” and ending with “mea est” emphasizes the idea that no one loves Lesbia as much as Catullus. The placement of “nulla” at the beginning of the

Diabetes is a disease that is represented by high levels in blood sugar. This results from defects within the insulin and how it works.
This essay will discuss how to deliver and enhance the life of people living with diabetes. It is not just about treating diabetes but delivering a personalised, responsive and holistic care in the way individual have chosen to live their lives. The focus of this essay will be the care and management of diabetes mellitus. I will also consider how diabetes is diagnosed, its causes and symptoms and its complications in this write up.
After watching the movie “It’s Complicated” many of John Alan Lee’s Six types of love were recognized. Jake and Jane was one couple that I noticed who displayed Lee’s love types. One type that they displayed was Ludus: flirtatious and fun. Jane and Jake seemed very playful, flirtatious, carefree, and casual, which according to our text describes this love style very well. This couple was more carefree at first but as the movie continued on they seemed to put more thought into what they were doing. These two also displayed the Ludus style by having fun and by being easy-going with their situation.
Diabetes mellitus also known simply as diabetes refers to a group of metabolic diseases which affect the body’s homeostatic mechanism used for maintaining and regulating the body’s blood sugar levels. Diabetes is a chronic condition which, in 2013 was estimated to be affecting 382 million people worldwide.[1] People suffering from diabetes are required to constantly be vigilant of their blood sugar levels to ensure it does not go below or above optimum levels. Depending on the type of diabetes and glucose level range, they may need to inject themselves with insulin or eat high sugar foods to restabilise their body. Failure to do so can lead to other long term health effects.[2]
Attitudes Towards Love in Pre-1900 and 1990's Poetry “The Despairing Lover” written by William Walsh was written pre 1900 whilst the second poem “I Wouldn’t Thank you for a Valentine” by Liz Lockhead was written in the 1990’s. These poems are almost a century apart. Attitude towards love changes over time and these poems represent this. I Wouldn’t Thank you for a Valentine is about how people think about Valentine’s Day in the 1990’s, while The Despairing Lover is showing what people think and how important they see love in the 1990’s.
This can be accomplished by including a Spanish Diabetic handbook of different types of meals that a patient can do to be part of their diet in losing weight and controlling their blood sugar levels. Secondly, would be to have healthcare providers to receive training in the Hispanic culture to better understand their patients. Thirdly, is to have bilingual health care providers to educate their patients on how to manage and prevent Type 2 Diabetes. Nonetheless, by including Leininger Transcultural theory, nurses will be aware of the Hispanic culture, and be able develop a professional relationship with their patients increasing compliance to their treatment and plan of

Exploration of the Different Aspects of Love in Poetry In the Victorian and Elizabethan times there were many poems, which explored the aspect of love. The metaphysical group of poets explored the whole experience of man, which was usually romantic or sensual. The poems I will talk about are "The Flea" by John Donne (1572-1631), "To His Coy Mistress" by Andrew Marvell (1621-78), "The Sick Rose" by William Blake (1757-1827), "A Woman To Her Lover" by Christina Walsh in the Victorian era and "Upon Julia's Clothes" by Robert Herrick (1591-1674). These poems cover lust, an aspect of love, and this was very controversial in the Victorian and Elizabethan times.
Something that I really struggled with was the passing of my Grandmother. She was a strong woman and an inspiration to everybody in my family. I think that I struggled with it because she was a great human being, I kind of looked up to her a bit, and of course she was part of my family. I think that along with her passing, I struggled with the fact that she died when I thought that she did nothing wrong in her entire life and did not deserve to die. Mainly the fact that she was a really good person and she just died like that.
shows that the poet is so fixated in one woman that he is blinded by
