Written in Disgust of Vulgar Superstition :: Disgust
Written in Disgust of Vulgar superstition The message of John Keats Written in Disgust of Vulgar credulity has to do with the opposition of religion and what people do to seek their religious enlightenment. It seems more than as if the theme is based on his personal dislike of religion and the things people do for religion. Keats suggestion that a preachers sermon tears you from Fireside joys and Lydian expose wee-wees it seem as if the people in church do not want to be there, which is most likely not the case. He is trying to make his point rough what he is speaking of by trying to make the reader agree with him. Which might work with some people, but as for me I already have a fixated belief about religion, one that will not change even if I read some writers perturbed opinions. Images argon use very well by Keats to present his opinion or feelings about the subject. On lines two and three of Written in Disgust of Vulgar Superstition Keats says calling the people to some other prayers, some other gloominess, more dreadful cares. This image of people flocking to prayers so that their heads can be filled with flounce (dreadful cares) which they do not need is the initial bash on church by Keats. From these two lines, it is obvious right away that the writer is no besides fond of religion and the morals it preaches. He apparently feels as if church is a bunch of superstitious people trying to implant these ideas into public minds about how to live their life. Before you even begin to read his poem it is obvious of his dislike for something by the title Written in Disgust of Vulgar Superstition, you can not tell exactly what his dislike is for until you begin reading. Then the images on lines two and three make you start thinking that his disgust of superstition could be a disgust of religious s uperstition. I feel that it is those images that set the tone for the rest of the poem. A chill as from a tomb. Those are pretty strong words to be used in opposition of religion.
