The Passionate Shepherd vs. To His Coy Mistress

The first of two poems that I will be studying in this essay is Christopher Marlowe's The Passionate Shepherd. This poem was written at some point in the 16th century. The poem is part of what is known as the Court Pastoral Tradition; it was written for aristocrats and the rich. It is sophisticated poetry for sophisticated people fanaticising about a simple life and gives the reader the idea of a rural paradise, depicting the aristocrat as leading a simple, rural life, creating a deliberately artificial world, combining natural goods and riches from the town.

The second of the two poems that I will be studying in this essay is Andrew Marvell's To His Coy Mistress. This poem was written in the 17th century, later than the first poem. The poem uses three methods of speech so as to persuade the writer's coy mistress, reluctant girlfriend, to make love to him. The first uses the Court Pastoral Tradition of writing in a sarcastic, humorous way, putting down Marlowe's style of writing. The next uses shocking imagery and the final part uses positive imagery.

As already mentioned, Christopher Marlowe's The Passionate Shepherd gives a very unrealistic, simple, almost dream-like view of life in the countryside. This simplicity
