| Abstract | ||
| This research examines the reflection of pain via nature. Stanley Kunitz is an American contemporary poet. Five of his poems are used to reflect his hidden pain. His father's suicide several weeks before his birth left deep scars in his heart during his childhood and accompanies him the rest of his life. This pain and childhood injury are hidden in the unconscious mind, which is the store for repressed desires, pain and dark wishes. The psychic pain assumes different forms like need, loss and anger. It reappears in adulthood to haunt Kunitz's life and his poetic work entirely. Kunitz's endeavor to face his injury failed due to his mother's effort to kill any blurred memory belongs to the lost father. This atmosphere has a vital role in shaping Kunitz's tattered identity. The signs of pain have not been buried entirely, but they appear in the forms of need, depression and anger. Freudian theory of depression and the unconscious are applied to Kunitz's texts. The article concludes that hidden pain can be expressed indirectly by uses nature and its elements | ||
