The Farmer's Bride (Part 2)
In this lesson, we will continue to focus on the poem 'The Farmer's Bride' by Charlotte Mew. We will closely focus on the language, form and structure of the poem. This lesson covers a poem which explores adult relationships and the objectification of women. If this is a sensitive topic to you, we recommend checking with a trusted adult before starting, or completing the lesson with a trusted adult nearby The poet reflects some of the attitudes of the time it was written. This does not mean that the attitudes are supported by the poet. Poets often use poetry to explore issues relating to inequality and injustice. This means they sometimes portray ideas and attitudes the reader will object to.
