‘The Tyger’ is a poem written by William Blake in 1794 as part of the collection titled ‘Songs of Experience’.
Imagery may be interpreted differently depending on the reader or listener's experiences.
The poem uses symbolism; the use of symbols that represent ideas beyond their literal meaning.
The poem references two animals: the lamb and the tiger; these can symbolise a range of emotions and themes.
A take-away idea within a text may link to themes that are explored and developed in it.
