Abstract
Ted Hughes is a prolific and versatile poet on the 20th Century poetic scene. His poetry, particularly animal verification, is multidimensional. He employs terrestrial, aerial, and aquatic animal symbols and images with eloquence and felicity. His empathy is acclaimed one. Through these miscellaneous animals as vehicle of expression, he poetizes various aspects of existence: human nature and behaviour, Nature along with its turmoil and quietude, animal tolerance and resistance, ascendancy of some species over others, human egomania, and the mythical and legendary value of animals. Hughes shows the external clash between tenderness and violence in the Natural world. Even the poetic art is expatiated in terms of animal activities. Moreover, the poet also demystifies the universal and perpetual bond behind the whole God’s creation. This study tries to overview all these dimensions and portrays Hughes as a new force and a fresh talent in English poetry.
