Kubla Khan and Ode on Grec convey different messages through their respective metaphors. While Coleridge emphasizes the process of creating a romantic poem, Keats expresses his opinion on art by carefully examining the details of the Greek urn. In “Kubla Khan,” Coleridge expresses his desire to use inspirations from nature to create his “Paradise.” ” of poetry (54, p.1634). In the first stanza, Coleridge creates an exotic oriental garden, where the trees, gardens, hills and the river “Alph”, together present the beauty of Mother Nature (3, p.1633). Here, the poet carefully observes his surroundings, as nature will serve as a source of inspiration for his poetry. The “pleasure dome” (2, p.1633) in line two has two functions, one represents the creation of humans on earth and the other is the foundation of Coleridge's poetic paradise. Since the clash between nature and humans occurs in the second stanza with a “woman crying for her demon lover” (16, p.1633), the poet appeals to nature for its inspiration, represented by the powerful activity of nature. Nature's energy is released in the form of "a mighty fountain" (19, p.1633), "bouncing hail" (21, p.1633) or "dancing rocks" (23, p.1633) and finally the natural energy disasters will be accompanied by man-made destruction since “Kubla heard from afar ancestral voices prophesying war” (29-30, p.1634)! Coleridge on the one hand emphasizes that man and nature are inseparable and on the other hand uses the energy of nature to represent the spontaneous stimulation of emotions in the poet's mind. In the third stanza, everything or...... middle of paper .. ....storal” (45, p.1848). The eternity of the urn exists only artistically and does not reflect human life because only the urn “must remain” forever (47, p.1848). Keats contrasts the ephemeral nature of human life with the longevity of the urn. In the last two lines, Keats declares, “beauty is truth, truth beauty” (29, p.1848) embodying both sides of his perspective. By establishing a relationship between beauty and truth, Keats recognizes that, like truth, the beauty of the Greek urn is immutable and that the ability to accept reality is beautiful. While Coleridge describes the process of creating Romantic poetry and encourages poets to use the combination of nature and imagination in this process, Keats is more focused on reality and is well aware of the limitations of the Greek urn. With the poets' admiration for the nature present in both poems …… to be completed.
