The Enfranchisement of the ‘In-Mate Soule’: Self-Knowledge and Death in Donne’s Anniversaries
The paradoxical nature of John Donne’s treatment of self-knowledge is nowhere more apparent than in two of his most important long poems, which are known as the Anniversaries. Why does Donne variously present self-knowledge as a near impossibility, a defining attribute, a valuable (if, in some cases...

520 | |a The paradoxical nature of John Donne’s treatment of self-knowledge is nowhere more apparent than in two of his most important long poems, which are known as the Anniversaries. Why does Donne variously present self-knowledge as a near impossibility, a defining attribute, a valuable (if, in some cases, unattractive) good, and a virtue? Here, I suggest that a consideration of Donne’s treatment of self-knowledge is essential for an understanding of his reflections on the relationship between body and soul in the Anniversaries. I argue that The Second Anniversarie may be read as both a portrait of resistance to the parting of body and soul in death, as well as an account of the soul’s enfranchisement and growth in self-knowledge through the same event. | ||
