"John Donne" by Ben Jonson
ARUGH! (sorry, need to vent.)
So I am doing a paper on the above mentioned poem; trying to tease out its story.
I know that Jonson and Donne knew each other, have found many snippits that confirm this, but cannot find out any more about this relationship.
I know that Jonson criticised Donne pretty harshly at times, but other than about 2 or three separate sentances, I cannot find out more.
I know that he wrote this poem but cannot find out why or any commentary on it.
I know that I need to improve my research skills but the few times I have tried my "ask the librarian 24/7" doesn't seem to be working.
Luckily my paper is short so I probably have enough to do the paper. But I want to know MORE. I am _really_ interested in this.
(end vent)
Thanks, I feel better. Just wanted to express this somewhere I thought it might be understood.
