  • "And Death Shall Have No Dominion" is a three-stanza poem by Dylan Thomas, first published in May 1933. Although it lacks a unified rhyme scheme, the poem employs a refrain and lyrical language reminiscent of the Romantic era. The title is derived from Romans, the sixth book of the New Testament, referring to the resurrection of Christ and the idea that death has no ultimate control. The poem explores the idea of death's power over humanity and the resilience of mankind against it. The poem suggests that despite death's strength, it cannot control everything. Instead, humanity can unite in moving towards the next world. Death, rather than dividing, brings people together equally. The latter part of the poem emphasizes the bravery and strength of individuals who stand up against death's power, enduring torture and the destruction of beauty without breaking.
