Abstract

The research aimed to discuss imagery dealing with death in Algernon Charles Swinburne’s “In Memory of Walter Savage Landor” and “Garden of Proserpine”. It focused on two major purposes: (1) to find out, classify and describe the imageries dealing with death in Swinburne’s “In Memory of Walter Savage  Landor”  and  “The  Garden  of  Proserpine”.  (2)  to  understand  how  the  death  is  based  on Swinburne description in his poem entitled “In Memory of Walter Savage Landor” and “The Garden of Proserpine”. In conducting the research, some theories were used. They were theory of imagery, kinds of imagery, death, and meaning.  Additionally, the research used two approaches. They were structural approach and formalistic approach. Furthermore, descriptive method and library research were used to finish the analysis and collecting the data. There were some visual and organic imageries which could be found in the poems. They were used to describe the body’s condition of the dead man and what would come after death. Furthermore, there were some images of death, that is, death as eternity, freedom, and certainty.   Keywords: imagery, death, image
