Work of death in Brontë's and Dickinson's poetry
thesis
posted on 2008-01-01, 00:00 authored by Anne. BishopDeath determines distinctly different, almost inverse, responses and outcomes for Emily Dickinson and Emily Brontë. Death is an imaginative poetic solution for Dickinson, demonstrating her belief that art is the only way to transcend death. But death is the ultimate solution for Brontë, for whom freedom of the imagination leads to mystical unity and continuity.
