Analysis and comments on Eros Turannos by Edwin Arlington Robinson

Comment 3 of 3, added on February 22nd, 2006 at 3:18 PM.

I thought this poem was all encompassing. It made me feel things I have
never felt before. I am truly enraptured with this poem and poet. I
cannot wait until I have the opportunity to ingest more of his orgazmic
work. I truly love him.

I remembered this poem from 15 years ago in college when my son's
girlfriend needed something for a high school debate class. It was the
first one that jumped into my mind and I've always loved it. It fit her
needs perfectly... this would be a good one for teaching the 'gossip'
aspect!

I use "Eros Turannos" to help my students understand the real problems of
gossip.

The psychological aspect is riviting!

This is one of the few perfect poems ever written! With all the bad lyrics
teenagers listen to these days, what a delight it is to hear something so
thought-provoking and beautiful and tragic and haunting. I never tire of
reading it...

I imagine Geoff Tate and Steve Perry would have a blast singing these words
to music!

Go E.A.
