count that day lost- bridging- activity 2

The information that was given to me about Eliot and what she went through out her life really made me understand the poem alot better than before.

First off, the information that I received about the poet's life is that Eliot isn't his real name, also he's not a male actually, she's a famale who tried to make a difference in society because, at that age, female writters were not taken seriously by the society. Her real name was Mary Ann Evans, and along with other writters of that age she wanted to improve society.

Mary Ann Evans often wrote about the differences between the wealthy landlords and the poor.
Same goes for the poem, Count That Day Lost, which talks about a good, well spent day, in contrast to a bad and a ruined  day. She really wanted to point out the responsibilities people have in their everyday lives and the option to choose which path to take.

In conclusion, I think, the given information about the poet's life could make us understand the poems of the poets alot better and see the reason behind each poem, which we didnt see before.
