Analysis of poetry works
Pires' poetry works are full of symbolic images and metaphors, which often need readers to interpret themselves. The following is an analysis of one of his famous poems, Afternoon at Sea:
Afternoon at Sea is one of Pires' representative works. In his poems, he expressed the passage of time and the impermanence of human existence in a modernist way.
The beginning of a poem is a strong sensory experience. The sound of the waves, the light of the sun and the roar of the wind make people feel like they are at the seaside. However, this sensory experience was quickly broken. Words such as "dusk" and "night" appear in poetry, implying the passage of time. The passage of time makes human existence impermanent, which is also one of the themes of poetry.
In the middle part of the poem, Pires expresses the transience of human existence in a symbolic way. He used metaphors such as "blank sail" and "ship of soul" to imply that human existence is so fragile and helpless. And "those sailors" represent the smallness of human beings in the long river of time. Finally, "seagulls" represent the human soul, and they explore the meaning of human existence in flight.
The whole poem is full of symbolic images and metaphors, which need to be interpreted by readers themselves. However, this poetic style has a far-reaching influence on French literature and modernist literature.
