Plath’s stylistic response to Percy Key’s death, as I have said, is to invent an impersonal style. What does a piece of that style “feel like”? Not only has it put aside those piercing “I’s” in favor of objective description, it has also put aside (for the most part) the excitable questions and exclamations that normally attend Plath’s anxiety-ridden “I.” With the courage of shutting up, the tongue of the poem has been quieted.

1、The preeminent question life asked of Stevens was whether the sublime was livable.Steven's sense of the world became one of extreme relativity, and an almost killing skepticism arose in him about his own statements, even those most deeply felt. "The things that we build or grow or do are so little when compared to the things that we suggest or believe or desire"......it is perhaps only the necessary linear form of poetry which prompts us to interpret poems more allegorically than we normally do the visual arts and forces us to see a poem as a problem secreting its own resolutions....the poem finds a middle ground of tone which is neither grand nor satiric, but may be called evaluative: ...I pursuedAnd still pursue, the origin and courseOf love, but until now I never knewThat f... 2、the "awful but cheerful" activities of the world include the acts by which man domesticates his surroundings, even if those surroundings are purely mechanical, like the filing station or the truck in Brazil painted with "throbbing rosebuds".The definition of life in the conversion of the strange to the familial, of the unexplored to the knowable, of the alien to the beloved.No domesticity is entirely safe. As in the midst of life we are in death, so , in Bishop's poetry, in the midst of the familiar, and most especially there, we feel the familiar as the unknowable. "I lost two cities, lovely ones. And vaster,some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent...the art of losing's not too hard to masterthough it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.""A moose has come out of/ the i... 3、Plath’s stylistic response to Percy Key’s death, as I have said, is to invent an impersonal style.
