I've always had a problem with the 'envelope' in that poem, for just the reason you stated. In treating the 'transitoriness of this life,' it seems to me that the speaker is negotiating a space for those outside of history/community to speak and be heard in the here and now (as it exists in the poem). The Christian interpretation at the end feels just a little too simple an explanation of the very complicated ideas the speaker was conveying.Heohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15790601758953554870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22992265.post-1164061496685983032006-11-20T17:24:00.000-05:002006-11-20T17:24:00.000-05:00Another beautifully meditative post on the interse...Another beautifully meditative post on the intersections of past, present, and future--just what I have come to regularly expect from this blog, however sporadic the musings. A wonderful essay on this very subject, by the way, that takes as its main focus "The Wanderer," is Roy M. Liuzza's "The Tower of Babel: 'The Wanderer' and the Ruins of History" [Studies in Literary Imagination 36.1 (2003)]. Check it out--you won't regret. More later, and cheers, EileenEileen Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756965845120441308noreply@blogger.com
