description |
Starting from Northrop Frye’s statement that “it
is not a nation but an environment that makes an impact on
poets, and poetry can deal only with the imaginative aspect
of that environment”, this paper2 investigates the impact
that the specific environment of a Brazilian farm has made
on P.K.Page, as revealed in her poem “Brazilian Fazenda”.
In the description of her surroundings from an unusual
perspective, she not only highlights the imagistic precision
of her visual perception but simultaneously foregrounds her
poetic sensibility, as she transforms the referential aspects
of the fazenda into an intense poetic and cultural experience. |
