Abstract :
John Donne is the most outstanding practioner of 'Metaphysical School of poetry'. Metaphysical poetry is that branch of poetry that blends emotions with intellect in a harmonic manner. In the poetry of Donne which Eliot and his generation found so fascinating – there existed the lively play of intellect, the alliance of passion and playfulness and dramatic imagination. Donne's poetic practices started a powerful tradition which affected a large body of poetry in the first half of the 17th century. This paper tries to tease out certain strong charecterstics of metaphysical traditions. It also tries to make a critical analysis of the importance of metaphysical poetry in the literary realm.
