'Eagle' Summary
'The Eagle' is a dramatic poem that paints a vivid portrait of an eagle perched high atop a mountain cliff. The poem begins with a description of the eagle's powerful presence, its claws gripping the rock, its head tucked into its feathers. The eagle then suddenly leaps into the air, its wings spreading wide, and dives down towards the sea. Tennyson uses evocative imagery to capture the eagle's movements and the vastness of the landscape. The poem's imagery is both powerful and symbolic, suggesting the eagle's power and freedom, as well as the insignificance of humanity compared to nature's grandeur. Through its strong imagery and evocative language, 'The Eagle' offers a glimpse into the natural world, leaving the reader with a sense of awe and wonder at the power and majesty of nature.Book Details
