Focusing on John Donne's contributions to metaphysical poetry, the paper highlights his exploration of love and devotion in works like "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning." While Shakespeare is often the face of Elizabethan poetry, Donne's resurgence in scholarly recognition, particularly through T.S. Eliot's essay, positions him as a significant figure. The paper discusses how Donne's poem captures the complex emotions surrounding farewell, blending strength with underlying vulnerability, and raises questions about the speaker's true feelings and intentions regarding love and separation.
