Walsh presents the idea of women's inequality in 'A Woman to Her Lover', at the time the poem was written it would be seen as very unusual for a woman to go against her husbands wishes, however the woman in the poem is independent, believes that women have rights and isn't a stereotypical woman of the time. It's clear that Walsh wanted to convey that women are worth more than just baring children and staying home all day without any goals in life, she wanted to explore ideas about how a husband should appreciate his wife and be grateful for the sacrifices she makes for him.

The poet uses enjambment to convey the woman's ever-building annoyance on how society views women. Walsh doesn't use punctuation until the fourth line, this suggests that the woman has irregular breathing as she's trying to force out her emotions all at once. A narrative voice is used to convey the writers personal experience - for example, 'O lover I refuse you!' suggests that this is something Walsh has experienced herself by using 'I'. This creates understanding between the author and a male reader but also makes female readers relate to how they might've been descriminated against, even in todays society.

Walsh presents the theme of love as representing harshness and inequality for women, 'conqueror to the vanquished' implies that the woman is trapped as her husbands slave rather than being in a loving reletionship. The noun 'conqueror' suggests that she's given up on fighting for herself since some conatations of conqueror are powerful and defeated. Also, the verb 'vanquished' reflects the stereotype of women being weak since she's been defeated by her husband. In the 1800s, men were able to use physical violence upon their wives if they didn't behave how they were expected, therefore saying that her husband is a 'conqueror to the vanquished' affirms that he could be using his greater strength to take advantage of his mentally strong wife who lives with the pain he causes but can't match him physically.

Also, the poet presents love as something to feel guilty about, by saying 'oh shame, and pity and abasement' Walsh reveals that the woman isn't herself when she's with her husband. The noun 'abasement' creates the impression that the womans husband could be emotionally abusive since she's clearly not joyful when she's around him. In a reletionship you're typically expected to be full of happiness and chearful, however the woman seems to be full of shame, pity and guilt which indicates a problem with their marriage. At the time the poem was written it was fairly normal for a man and his wife to have a reletionship like this but nowerdays I presume people close to the victim would seek support for them.

In both poems, mixed emotions are presented towards the men they're talking about, Duffy says 'sweetheart bastard', this oxymoron implies that Mrs Havishem still loves the man that left her at the alter, however she hates him because he betrayed her.

Walsh presents the inequality between men and women as the women in 'A women to her lover' wasn't a stereotypical women  during the 1800's. In the times when this poem was written, women were expected to look after their children and cook for their family, however, in the poem, the women refuses the role of women during the 1800's.

Firstly, Walsh presents the woman's first feelings to love as strong and aggressive by using an enjambment. In the first stanza there isn't any punctuation until the fourth line, introducing the irregular sentence length, which is showing that the woman is being confident by what she's saying and is trying to say her full point into one sentence by forcing out all of her emotions in one. Also in the first stanza, it says ' I refuse you'  which implies that the woman wont even listen to the man or anything that he's saying. The symbol 'i' implies that it is the womans personal experience and the first person view the poem by talking to the man and saying that she refuses him, this shows the differences between the 1800's and today's society towards women.

Walsh presents women to have no fun also during the 1800's and that they are trapped and being controlled by men and theeir actions. The phrase 'no greater joy' implies that women in the 1800's were trapped and had no freedom by showing their negative emotions throughout the poem. This part of the poem contrasts with the final stanza of the poem where the poet says ' our co-equal love will make the stars to laugh with joy' which implies a more happier feeling to the poem which could reveal that the poet has changed her emotions about women and men during the 1800's and the women could implying their real love and not that the women are actually trapped by society.

COMPARISON
Duffy implies love by firstly using the oxymoron 'sweetheart bastard'. This implies the two way thoughts on the poets way of love as later on in the poem, the poet is described as ' Spinister' which is the meaning for being unmarried.

At the end of the peom, Duffy uses the repetition of 'b-b-b-breaks to imply the poets emotions and that she is having a break doen as she is stuttering her words. by including the symbolic break down, 'b-b-b-breaks' could reveal the fact that the poet is upset over her love and emotions becxause when you cry and still try and say your words, you usually stutter as you are upest about what you are still trying to say.

Walsh presents the ideas of inequality within woman and men and the fact this woman wasn't a stereotypical woman of this time in the 1800's. She goes against all of this man's wishes which was an unusual thing to do in the 1800's as woman were seen as slaves to men.  However, if he treats her like an equal to him she would be more than happy to be his forever. The overall ideas of this poem is the independence of a woman, who won't accept society's ways of life.

Walsh presents feelings about love as being unusual and aggressive by using enjambment. In the first stanza, the first sign of punctuation is on the fourth line, implying its irregular sentence lengths and is being rushed conveying the idea of agression as its like she's just getting all her emotions out all at the same time. Walsh does this to create the effect that love can be agressive and inequal, it's not all typically happiness and positive things. Also, the first person narrative voice of "Do you come to me..." implies it's more of a personal view of herself and it's how she feel and not what someone else is feeling. This is effective because it creates a connection between the reader and the woman as its more of an personal experience that is to do with inequality that everyone will have experienced, wheter you're a woman or man.
Walsh presents feelings about love as being harsh and inequal for women by saying "conqueror to the vanquished". The noun 'conqueror' has the connotations of being ruled over and someone more powerful than you so by using this noun makes the man seem more powerful than this woman, however, she is an independant person that will not accept it. Furthermore, the verb  'vanquished'  has the connotations of  being defeated and taken over, as this is what the man wants to do to the woman but she will not allow it. However, this contrats the the last stanza where she says "to love and die with you... i am yours forever" implying that if he will accept for them to have equality and feel true love than she will be with him till the day they both die.

Walsh presents feelings about love as being inequal and controlling by using the metaphor "i am no doll to dress" which conveys she won't just be controlled by him like a doll would be. This is a metaphor for the control that he wants over her but she won't accept the inequality. The noun 'doll' creates the impression of a thing which dehumanises the woman as he wants full control over her, as this was the stereotypical thing to do in the 1800's. Walsh does this to convey what an independant woman she is and how you don't always have to be what society wants you to be.

The poem 'A Woman to Her Lover and the poem 'Havisham' both have the same ideas of love as it being harsh. Duffy uses the repetition of "b-b-b-breaks" to convey that love is harsh and can hurt you. The verb 'breaks' is usually assoicated with an object breaking for example glass but the heart is breaking, therefore, the heart is seen as an object to the one who breaks her hearts and they don't care in the slightest way. This is similar to 'A Woman to Her Lover' as she is looked at as an object by the man as he just wants to use her as a slave, which is inequal.

However, towards the end of 'A Woman to Her Lover' her attitudes towards love changes and she will accept him if he will 'love and die with her' implying there is always a way around getting your heart broken but in the poem 'Havisham' she will always have deep hatred for love as she has had her heart broken.

In the poem "A Woman to Her Lover" Walsh presents her ideas to marrage as unequal and belives women are treated more of objects than human beings. By describing her attitudes to being married as "wearing out my life" Walsh emphasises her belief that love should consist of equality and women should reject stereotypes of women of being objects to be married. Walsh wanted to convey women have more values than bearing children and being married off for "febble worship" and staying at home like a sterotypical house wife. She wanted both men and women to be treated equaly and grateful for each other.
Walsh presents her annoyance towards societys attitudes towards love by using a irregular sentence and stanza form. In the first stanza Walsh uses no punchuation untill the  fourth line in the stanza when she is describing her lover as a "conqueror" which is used to emphasise the anger the author feels towards societys attitudes to women as a object which worships men. In addition, Walsh also uses repition of "i refuse you!" to emphasise the authors rejection of stereotypes and anger towrds societys opinion towards women. the poem is written in in first person narritive to emphasise how she feels imprisioned by people who see her as a "servant".
In addition, Walsh presents the theme of love as possesing and objectifying by refering mens attitude to women as "a wingless angel" to emphasise women are being treated as objects. The connontations of angel are someone of great importance, heaven and God. By associating women with religion Walsh creates imagry of someone who is perfect and of great importance making the perfect woman look like more of a fantasy than a real human being. By associating a "wingless angel" with a "doll to dress" Walsh emphasises that despite women being seen as perfect and a fantasy they are controlled by societys attitudes to love because the connontations of a "doll" is a emotionless toy to be played with which is used to emphasise the authors anger women are dehumanised and seen as toys to be married.
Walsh uses a list of happy memories the poet and lover could spent together in the final stanza if the lover saw her as a equal which is used as a contrast to her sarcastic tone when she conveys mens attitudes to love as objectifying to emphasise she wishes  to be seen as a equal in terms of love. Walsh presents the ideas of love as controlling by using a listof nouns to descirbe mens attitudes to women. Walsh dehumanises women by using nouns such as "slave" and "creature"  to emphasise women are seen more of objects than human beings because the associations of "slave" are property and objects to be controlled which is used to emphasise that women are controlled and seen as objects rther than human beings.

comparision with Havisham
In both the poems Havisham and a woman to her lover both poets convey the ideas of love as harsh and unfair. however, Walsh explores the ideas of marriage with her being treated as a object. wheras Duffy explores her betrayal of a person she loved who has betrayed her
