The poem I chose for this paper is “Dover Beach” by Matthew Arnold. Before we can discuss Arnolds "Dover Beach," a brief biography of the poet will help us understand the poem, and the mood he is in while writing it. The reader should know that Matthew Arnold married Fanny Lucy Wightman at Dover, despite her fathers disapproval. Arnold in his poem “Dover Beach” is talking to his lover. ...
The structure of "Dover Beach" is a four stanza poem that contains a different number of lines in each stanza, with a total of thirty seven lines. ... In "Dover Beach", Arnold uses detailed adjectives and imagery to describe the setting and portray the beginning mood, which begins with the description of natures beauty and ends with a tragic human experience. ... Arnold starts by describing the beautiful nature of Dover Beach “The sea is calm tonight” (1). ... This portrays the image of an imaginary battle on the land of Dover.
