Question

Write detailed note on theme of optimism in the poem not marble nor gilded monuments

Answer 1

Poetry and art are immortal; they continue to live from one generation to another in the form of books and memories scattered in different parts of the world. However, buildings, statues, and gilded monuments are fixed on a particular place. Owing to their large size and immovability, they become an easy target of enemy artillery and cannons during war. But art lives on forever in the memories of people who dying hand them over to the next generations. The title of the poem 'Not Marble, nor the Gilded Monuments' aptly alludes to the mortality of material things such as statues, monuments, etc.
