Robert Hayden’s “Those Winter Sundays” 1. What is the theme of this poem? Again, state the theme in a complete sentence. Avoid merely giving the subject of the poem, and avoid summarizing the poem. Also avoid giving the theme as a partial or ambiguous idea. 2. Give a brief quote from the poem that describes a character or moment in the story/poem. Be sure to format the quote appropriately, using MLA format. Tell me what your quote tells us about the character. Explain, through an interpretation of this brief quote (focus in on specific words and phrases), HOW it tells us that. For example, if you quote that the character “had eyes as blue as a cloudless sky”…you might interpret that to mean that we are meant to think of this character as happy and untroubled (like a cloudless sky…). Once again, quote NO MORE THAN TWO LINES of the poem. Remember to tie individual words and phrases to your ideas. By phrase, I mean no more than two or three words. Interpret the words and phrases of your quote on as many different levels as possible. Avoid being purely literal.
