Adrienne Rich in her poem 'Aunt Jennifer's Tigers' :

Question

Accepted Answer

Adrienne Rich की कविता 'आंट जेनिफर'स टाइगर्स' में:

1.  एक महिला विवाहित जीवन में जिन बाधाओं का अनुभव करती है, उन्हें संबोधित किया गया है।

**Option 1 is Correct:**

Adrienne Rich's poem 'Aunt Jennifer's Tigers' powerfully explores the constraints and limitations imposed upon women within the institution of marriage. Aunt Jennifer's embroidered tigers represent a stark contrast to her own oppressed existence. The tigers are bold, fearless, and free, embodying qualities that Aunt Jennifer herself lacks. The poem highlights the weight of her wedding band, symbolizing the oppressive nature of her marriage and the burdens she carries. The "massive weight of Uncle's wedding band" suggests the power imbalance and the lack of freedom she experiences. The poem focuses on her fear and the difficulty she has even creating something beautiful because of the psychological impact of her marriage. Therefore, the poem directly addresses the constraints of married life a woman experiences.

**Why other options are incorrect:**

*   **Option 2 (celebrates the beauty and strength of the tiger):** While the poem does depict the tigers as beautiful and strong, the primary focus is not simply a celebration of the animal itself. The tigers serve as a symbol of freedom and power that Aunt Jennifer lacks, highlighting the contrast between her life and the untamed spirit of the tigers. The poem uses the tigers to comment on Aunt Jennifer's situation, not to simply admire the animal.

*   **Option 3 (praises the creator of the magnificent beast):** The poem does not focus on praising the creator of the tigers, whether it be nature or Aunt Jennifer herself. The emphasis is on the tigers as a symbol and their contrast to Aunt Jennifer's oppressed state. The act of creation is secondary to the symbolic meaning of the tigers.

*   **Option 4 (illustrates the relationship between the hunter and the tiger):** The poem does not depict a direct relationship between a hunter and a tiger. The tigers are symbolic representations of freedom and power, and the poem focuses on Aunt Jennifer's internal struggles and the constraints of her marriage, not on a literal hunting scenario. There is no hunter mentioned or implied in the poem.
