Read all the poems by Emily Dickinson and pay attention to Dickinson’s language: her choice of words, the metaphors, the imageries, … and above all the message she has for us in every poem. These poems are all short, so it wont take much time for you. What is Emily Dickinson’s notion of success, fame/identity, and society? What is your first impression of the poems? What is your understanding of the poem in the 2nd and 3rd readings of the poems? Post your answers in the Discussions. You can address one, two, or more poems. When you need to refer to a word or line in her poem, please, use quotation marks. For in-text citations, use the line numbers. For example: “An emperor be kneeling/ Upon her Mat” (5-6) Also, to separate the lines, use a slash mark when you quote up to 3 lines. More than 3 lines should be treated like a long/ block quote.
