Answer:

To Science’ by Edgar Allan Poe is a fourteen-line sonnet that can be separated into one set of eight lines, or an octave, and a sestet, or a set of six lines. These two sections are divided by a “turn” in the text of the poem. In the case of ‘Sonnet—To Science’ the narrator moves from using third-person experiences to utilizing Roman mythology to further his case against science.

The references to Roman mythology are numerous in the second half of the poem. Poe taps into this mythological history to try to convince a reader of the damage science does. It is constantly disrupting the lives of beings as mystical as naiads and hamadryads. One of the most important themes of ‘Sonnet—To Science’ is how science is removing the magic of myth, art, and beauty. To the speaker’s eyes, this makes the world less special and less capable of inspiring him to write.
