FORMALISTIC APPROACH

The poem depicts an environment free from civilization where social interaction, technology and
recreations are non-existent. Due to monotony of such environment Adam was able to consume
the forbidden fruit to satisfy his impulsive self. Today, as something for fun is sought, Eden has
been compared to this earth, as there are many things to implement to cope with our mood
swings.
FEMINISTIC APPROACH
The monotony of the environment where Adam lives would show how the serpent was able to
deceive him to eat the forbidden fruit. Thus it is conclusively alarming how an environment could
greatly influence one’s decision and upbringing. In return, Adam at the end, walked out of the
Garden in lieu of his gross negligence with one more characters behind him.

negative aspects of a conversation.
