AQA A level: Love through the ages - Unseen poetry comparison

An unseen poetry comparison question using two poems related to love and loss. Two elegiac poems, the well-known 17th century Ben Jonson poem 'On My First Sonne' and R.S. Thomas's 'A Marriage', from the late 20th century, are used. Some slides to encourage students to consider these poems' contexts and to remind them of aspects of the poems that should be explored are included.
