Nature Imagery and the Imperishable Quiet in Theodore Roethke

강방영

초록

영어

The purpose of this paper is to get a view of Roethke’s poetry in terms of the nature imagery and imperishable quiet at the heart of life. In his poems he expresses awareness of the mystery of being and his belief that the pristine source of life can be found in nature. He believes that we can experience a profound inner union with the integrating principle of the universe through natural things. He tries to discover mysterious quality of life force observing plants struggling to grow, thinking about human efforts to overcome conflicts and a new harmonious relationship with the world.
He examines the inevitability of leaving this world and meaning of death. Through death man
participates in a circularity of the natural world, the eternal cycles of decay and renewal. He
moves toward the fulfilled moments of living through nature imagery and finds a way of achieving spiritual progress. Through meditation and memory of experiences in nature, he pursues ‘the final man’ as the end of things and accepts death as a door open to a new life. With his poems we can learn the loss of the purely human ego to the center of universe lies a way to the true life. (Cheju Halla College)
