Item Mythologizing of Animal Power in Ted Hughes's Poetry(Department of English, 2006) Giri, MadhuThe main objective of this study is to show how Ted Hughes uses animal imagery to counter Christian ethics. To see how animal imagery challenges orthodox values, the sense of his poems has been analyzed in detail-against natural setting. The duty of God is supposed to rescue all creatures but in his poems God seems helpless in front of his creation. Crow's frequent opposition to say "love" is big blow to modern humanity. The poet wants to revive pre-Christian era where nature's power governed. His desire for purification or regeneration of human beings through renovation of myth is expressed through animal instinctual imagery taken from deep past.
