An Analysis of Beauty in Emily Dickinson’s Poetry
Abstract
Emily Dickinson is one of the most famous American poets, whose poetry is known as simple, short and pithy, but with rich connotation, and full of charm. This thesis analyzes the beauty reflected on Emily Dickinsons poetry. In Emily Dickinson’s poetry, the image flower, most often, is the incarnation of the poet herself and her poetry, while the sea indicates what she loves. Through the use of simile, which is multi-faceted and new, Dickinson successfully transfers her emotion and vividly depicts the natural phenomenon; and sound symbolism creates a kind of atmosphere which echoes the mood of her poem beyond the poem itself. Her diction is laconic, stripped to the fewest words to gain power; and the subjects in her poems are with boundless implication. The careful and serious reading of Dickinson’s poetry can give us entrance into the poet’s own realm of life.
