“The Tiger” and “The Lamb” by William Blake
Write a comparison-contrast essay between William Blake’s poems “The Tyger” and “The Lamb” (they may be found online easily). Does Blake suggest that both poems have the same message under the facade of simplicity? Discuss how Blake manages to make his message explicit through his diction and pictures/engravings (by searching up each poem on google images you shall find the pictures/engravings). The essay must consist of personal opinions and thoughts therefore should be written in 1st person and make sure to read and analyze the poems carefully as they are not that long. If anyone questions arise or anything is unclear such as which pictures/engravings the prompt is referring to then please contact me.
