Abstract: This poem is one of the most original and classic love poems written by John Donne. Love and eternity are the themes of this poem. John Donne used conceit as a conscious language technique in this poem. My analysis focuses on the content and the metaphysical conceit. In this poem, conceit is used as an instrument of expression to enrich the meaning of the poem and to add to its aesthetic effects. I hope this analysis can help us understand better the relationship among love, life, and resurrection in John Donne’s writing.

摘要:这是多恩关于爱情的一首经典诗歌。本诗的主题是爱情和永生。我从全诗的内容表述及诗中所用的奇喻进行了分析。在本诗中,作者运用奇喻表达情感、丰富内涵、增加审美情趣。希望通过对多恩的诗“跳蚤”的奇喻分析,可以让我们更好的理解这首诗,理解多恩笔下的爱情与生活,重生间的关系。
