Abstract

Normal 0 21 false false false TR JA X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Normal Tablo"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0cm; mso-para-margin-right:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:10.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0cm; line-height:115%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;} Best known for his nature and animal poetry, Ted Hughes (1930-98) has an important place in the history of twentieth century English literature with his poems, stories for children, plays, essays, letters and translations. He has been fascinated with the forces of nature, the world of animals and the challenges of postindustrial society. His diction and controlled language give a sense of order to the violent and chaotic natural world, drawing attention to the immediate experiences. Ecocriticism, “ the study of the relationship between literature and physical environment” ( Glotfelty: 1996, xviii) is chosen for reading “Hawk Roosting” since this poem presents Hughes’s intense insights into the natural world. This article exemplifies the ways in which Hughes explores both violence and order in nature through the daily experiences of a hawk in its own habitat. The hawk acts in an instictive manner in line with the natural order.
