Plath and Hughes comparisons

Plath’s reservations and Hughes’s…

…assertations play against each other (Uroff)

As psychic explorations, more particular, more intense…

…more ominous, more psychologically complex than Hughes’s poems (Uroff)

He thrills to…

…the dangers that frighten her (Uroff)

A marriage…

…of opposites (Leeming)

Call and…

…response (Gifford)

Both Plath and Hughes’s poetry suggest that this conception of femininity…

…was being consciously or unconsciously negotiated between them (Gifford)
