Both "Musée des Beaux Arts" and "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" were written as a response to Breughel’s Landscape with the Fall of Icarus. While the poets’ inspiration was the same, their use of the subject matter in their writing is different. In a well-constructed essay contrast the uses of rhetorical strategies and poetic elements employed by Auden and Williams. Consider poetic form, focus, and mood/tone through diction.
You may use your class notes and Foster’s How to Read Literature Like a Professor as a starting point for your analytical essay, but your writing must be your own.
