How is death perceived in the poem full fathom five thy father lies?

This article investigates the prevalence of the sea and the seashore in the elegiac tradition from a geocritical perspective, including poems by John Milton, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Matthew Arnold, Robert Lowell, Carolyn Kizer, Sylvia Plath, and Elizabeth Bishop. I draw attention to the prevalence and recurrence of oceanic and littoral topographies in elegies from both Britain and America, and from different periods, in order to demonstrate a geography-based continuity within the tradition and genre, thereby challenging and developing popular critical narratives of shift and rupture in the heritage of elegy. By extension, I illustrate the relevance of geocriticism to poetry, specifically in the investigation of elegiac strategies connected to the drawing of cartographies of imagination, emotion and memory. Focusing on the elegiac seashore—in particular Plath's “Berck-Plage” and Bishop's “North Haven,” in addition to the cultural imaginary of the ocean that they draw upon—enables the connection of specific perspectives on death and loss to specific kinds of spatial imaginations.

The hallmark of research today is “interdisciplinary,” and Interdisciplinary Literary Studies exemplifies the diversity, complexity, and rewards of integrating literary study with other methodologies. Drawing upon a broad base of critical theories and applying these to a wide range of literary genres, contributors reward us with daring interpretations, such as a mathematical reading of triangles in Robert Frost’s poetry or an “engaged Buddhist response to trauma” reading of Le Ly Hayslip’s Child of War, Woman of Peace. Editor Kenneth Womack, an author of both nonfiction and fiction (including John Doe No. 2 and the Dreamland Motel [Switchgrass, 2010]) has placed Interdisciplinary Literary Studies squarely in the middle of the conversation.

in general, fiction refers to plot, settings, and characters created from the imagination, while nonfiction refers to factual stories focused on actual events and people. however, the difference between these two genres is sometimes blurred, as the two often intersect.
