Titus Andronicus is illustrative of the alarming horror that certain types of cooking and food reinforce, whereas Grandpas soup is contri neverthelession of the warmth and scratchion that certain types of food and cooking can bring.Themes portrayed in these texts much(prenominal) as death, mortality, celebration, esperation, love and hate ar looked at from completely different angles through the literary techniques displayed by both writers, which willing be analyzed and discussed in this essay. First of only, the celebratory atmosphere created in both texts highlight the horror/ happiness. For eccentric, in Titus Andronicus, ingredients of human flesh and study are mixed to produce deligh tful dishes.Literally, this is gruesome and chaotic notwithstanding for the characters cooking these dishes it connotes a sense of victory over defeating their enemies and ridiculing them, which they then celebrate. Similarly, in Grandpas Soup the ingredients are apt(p) a voice to, making them near onomatopoeic for typeface, hoch, loch and och. The rhythmic tone signifies togetherness and similarity between the words apocalyptic of the togetherness and strong relationship the character has with her Grandpa.The repetition of these ingredients through turn out the poem adds accent mark to this idea, it seems as if it was pouring out of her mind this is also reflected through the characters voice because it doesnt seem to be limited to a form, the poem sprawls and is shaped by the speech, which reflects the Joy and elebration in the poem. Death and mortality are also popular themes in these poems presented to us in two completely different ways. unpitying cannibalism in Titus A ndronicus versus innate death in Grandpas Soup Titus very good and by fine-looking clear instruction manual orders on how to kill Chiron and Demetrius.This implies that if he so effortlessly does this he is not at all go or disturbed by it and that it is completely normal to him. The silence and response of others around him show that they are also unaffected by it, which forces out an extremely shocking response from the reader. In contrast, Grandpas Soup signifies that Grandpas cooking provides her with echt pleasure not Just contentment or satisfaction but something greater therefore she goes onto talk about her fear of losing him, which overcasts a somber shadow over the whole poem.The writer dates that death is a natural process that she cannot stop but she goes on to say how it will affect her living life as she will be emotionally divide apart and carry the burden of pain throughout with the absence of her Grandpa and his remedial soup. There is evidence of figurati ve language that is very good in outlining and omprehending the characters point of view in Grandpas Soup for example the illustration like a rich island in the middle of the soup sea. The magnification assists in getting her ideas across.Describing the soup as a sea represents the prescience of the characters feelings associated with the soup, and her Grandpa. This is reinforced by the yearning that is evident through her language, for example he knows I will grow and pine for it. I will cling ill and desperately need it this could be seen as deep affectional language that shows her desperation and strong will to hold onto her Grandpa forever and a day and the fact that she draws from the semantic field of health shows that the soup is so big to her its like a cure or a medicine for all her illnesses.The desperate people that have no peace in Titus Andronicus are reflective of the fast pace of the poem and how quickly events unfold throughout the poem leaving the reader wi th no time to digest it. The apposition is evident in, Whereof their mother daintily hath fed, Eating the flesh that she herself hath bred shows that she has done much(prenominal) a catastrophic deed but in a way that is not imaginable and omething she herself was unaware about. The adverb daintily screams out the disgust.This technique achieves maximal impact because soft words are used to convey a very powerful, strong meaning completely alarming the reader because it is such an unnatural, unusual situation. Also, the conversational and chatty lexis rather than it makes as if all the paleness is very common and there is nothing to be shocked about. both writers use iambic pentameter giving the texts life and a certain personality.

Titus uses the killing of Chiron and Demetrius as a Justification for killing Lavinia. Additionally, Tamora Just follows instructions even though she is the empress but has no real oice.On the other hand, in Grandpas Soup, the whole poem is a female narrator expressing her feelings and having the most primal place in the poem. In conclusion, it can be said that the themes of these texts are highly comparable because both texts possess the same themes, which are given a completely different light in each one. Titus Andronicus is accurately representative of its genre a revenge tragedy and Grandpas Soup gets across the idea that food can form and trigger memories that last a lifetime and the nostalgia allow s us to reconnect with omeone that may be gone but cool off alive in our thoughts.Titus Andronicus sticks well to its fictional identity however Grandpas Soup allows the reader to bring to lite real teelings that are relatable to a grand audience.
