Document Summary
Poetry - sylvia plath and robert gold - cold war poetry. Wwii is the hot war, nuke and holocost. Cold war: it was the allinace of the usa, britain, ussr, etc. Literature and art is the unconscious of the social collective. Art tell us of a different story of teh cold war that i tis not over at all, and everything has changed and there is no way back/out. As the bomb blew up, the realiszation of human failings, as much as any other venture, litterally exploded at the same time. In the usa (as seen in the bell jar), the reaction is coming down to conformity and a kind of dream of safety. What really started teh cold war, usa and russia eyed each other comepatively and warily. Ecomonics was one face of comepetition, where russia was based on socialism and communism, while the usa was based on capitalism; its a war of economis systems. which sysem is better/previal.
