Goldsmith's Deserted Village is a classic poem written by Oliver Goldsmith in 1770. The poem describes the decline of a small village in rural Ireland, as the wealthy landowners gradually force the poor farmers to leave their land and seek work elsewhere. Goldsmith portrays the village as a once-thriving community, full of life and activity, but now abandoned and desolate.The poem is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of the village's decline. The first part describes the natural beauty of the village and its surroundings, while the second part introduces the various characters who once lived there. The third part focuses on the impact of the landowners' greed and the resulting poverty and misery of the villagers. Finally, the fourth part offers a vision of hope, suggesting that the village could be restored to its former glory if only the landowners would change their ways.Throughout the poem, Goldsmith uses vivid imagery and powerful language to evoke the beauty and sadness of the village. He also employs a range of poetic techniques, including rhyme, meter, and metaphor, to create a memorable and moving work of literature.Goldsmith's Deserted Village has been widely praised for its social commentary and its lyrical beauty.
