xxx/ellauri081.html on line 158: The main theme of William Blake's poem "The Tyger" is creation and origin. The speaker is in awe of the fearsome qualities and raw beauty of the tiger, and he rhetorically wonders whether the same creator could have also made "the Lamb" (a reference to another of Blake's poems).
xxx/ellauri081.html on line 160: Accordingly, what does the Tyger poem symbolize?
xxx/ellauri081.html on line 162: The tiger, in Blake's “The Tyger” is a symbol for evil. The words used to describe the tiger include “burning” (line 1) and “fire” (6), both suggesting the fires of hell. Blake also uses “fearful” (4), “dread” (12,15), and “deadly terrors” (16) to describe feelings the tiger is associated with.
xxx/ellauri081.html on line 164: Additionally, what is the purpose of the Tyger by William Blake? It would be a mistake to say that Blake's purpose in writing "The Tyger" was to show that God is the source of pain and violence in the world, just as it would be a mistake to assume that Blake's purpose in writing "The Lamb" was to convert people to a belief in Jesus Christ.
