What does this poem mean? The tide rises, the tide falls,
The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea-sands damp and brown
The traveller hastens toward the town,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.

Darkness settles on roofs and walls,
But the sea, the sea in the darkness calls;
The little waves, with their soft, white hands,
Efface the footprints in the sands,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.

The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls
Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls;
The day returns, but nevermore
Returns the traveller to the shore,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.

Why does Alexander Pope use the style and narrative form of epics to describe a relatively insignificant incident in “The Rape of the Lock”?

to mock the epic form, which was popular among the upper class

to mock society for attaching too much importance to trivial things
to mock the foolish acts committed by young gentlemen in love
to mock the vanity and pride of upper-class young women like Belinda

Answers

The correct answer is - to mock society for attaching too much importance to trivial things.


Alexander Pope wanted to show that the society during the era of Classicism (when he lived and wrote) gave too much importance to irrelevant things when they could have been focusing on more pressing issues. This is why he wrote his poem using the heroic epic form, which was used to talk about heroes and their great deeds, to write about a simple event as someone stealing a lock of woman's hair and causing chaos as a result.


Alexander Pope used the style and narrative form of epics in The Rape of the Lock to mock society for attaching too much importance to trivial things.

He wanted to make light of the matter and cool hot tempers based on a real life incident that happened amongst his acquaintances.

c. it follos the same rhyme scheme throughout.
d. there is a change in mood from the quantrains to the final couplet

Answers

The correct answer is D. There is a change in mood from the quatrains to the final couplet. This is common in the English sonnet that the final couplet is used to change the mood and add new meaning to what was previously said, thus being a sort of a peak for the sonnet.
