Abstract :

Thomas Hardy’s poem “The Convergence of the Twain” portrays a tragedy of human pride in thesinking of Titanic; the most famous ocean liner in its time. It became more famous when it sank in April1912. This research analyzed the poem based on the use of imagery. From the analysis, some lessonswere found that man could build and develop modern and sophisticated technology, but he would not beable to control his fate. The force of fate owned by the Almighty God was above everything. Indeed; manproposes, God disposes.
