The Anniversary

[laurynjuliet]

MY first post!
I'm an A level English lit student currently studying Donne. I'm loving the course so far but am having great dificulty with 'The anniversary' Can someone provide me with a deep analysis and any possible connection between this poem and A Valediction? ta..

Hi, laurynjuliet.

Is there a specific question you have regarding "The Anniversary"? A "deep analysis" might take many pages.

And do you mean "A Valediction forbidding mourning" - as there are two other valediction poems by Donne - "A Valediction of my name", and "A Valediction of weeping".
