Dr Abigail thank you for wonderful cultural literary channel. We appreciate your great efforts as foreigners subscribers as overseas students. We want to increase our cultural level , improve our English and literature lovers too . There are great news I want to share with you and all TH-cam community I am subscriber to . Iam Only Arabic lady in several British and American TH-cam channels. I will be soon English teacher in academy improving plan for weak students. I promise all of you to do my best and make use of contents to be good teacher . I gathered main information about Emily Dickinson and her poems in religion. She was not officially member of church, though she still fell strong connection to god , that she expressed in her poetry in various ways . Her styles , topics and bible references are able to help reader decode her mixed emotions about god and church . Her god poems such as god bless , he went ad soldiers. Truth is old as god . God gave loaf to every bird . God made little gentian. Nature and god I neither knew . God permit industrious angles . God is distant stately lover .

Thank you for your wonderful literary cultural channel. As I told before iam Arabic lady subscriber to several British and American TH-cam channels. I gathered main information about Emily Dickinson poetry in nature briefly nature became link between herself and external world . Most powerful poem of Emily Dickinson poem is hope is thing with feathers , she used hope like bird always has feathers , even when everything else is stripped. Her poem Mother Nature she described nature as gentle mother to reveal interconnected and common position of woman and nature . This poem description of Mother Earth how she takes care of all her children and household.

Thank you for your wonderful cultural literary channel. As I mentioned before iam Arabic lady subscriber to several British and American TH-cam channels. Actually woman situation in western society in the past as Arabic woman situation unfortunately as some narrow minded people her duties child bearing, cleaning, cooking , sewing , general care of house , didn’t require universities or schooling. Yes get married early aged 16 or 15 , but delayed until early twenties in late 18 th century. In 19 century, contours of feminist political movement became visible. Feminism became official concept , first feminist wave began in 1850 . Spearheads of woman movement were equality in education, labor , electoral rights . Woman roles in 19 th century were related to cult of domesticity which woman virtue was tied to piety , submissiveness and domesticity .

Emily Dickinson poetry is filled with moments of ambiguous meanings because, she focuses on topics that do not have definitives , interpretation such as lighting , truth , infinite. Nevertheless she explores subjects not for purpose of seeking answer but for sake of exploring them . Main themes of her poems are literary themes common to her era love , death , sentiments, war , religion . She did differently from her contemporaries. Her famous poem hope with features . She used dashes to create pauses indicate emphasis’, create sense of rhymes. Tone of her poems pessimistic, depressing, very dark , gloomy. Symbols of her poems she used child , field of grain , sunset . She is inspired, have heavily influenced by seventeenth century poets especially metaphysical poets . Iam so sorry to be little long but reading and writing both are great ways to improve our English as non native speakers.

Thank you for your wonderful literary cultural channel . Iam Arabic lady subscriber to several British and American TH-cam since Christmas 2019 . We are as foreigners subscribers as overseas students want to increase our cultural level and improve our English as well , literature lovers too. I am subscriber to mr Adam walker channel few months ago. I gathered main information about famous poet Emily Dickinson biography and her poems characteristics briefly here it’s Emily Dickinson considered as one of leading 19 th century American poets , known for her bold original verse , which stands for epigrammatic compression, haunting personal voice , enigmatic brilliance . ( 1830- 1886) she is little known during her life , she was born in Amherst Massachusetts into prominent family with strong ties to community. After studying at Amherst academy for seven years in her youth she briefly attended mount Holyoke female seminary before returning to her family home in Amherst. Evidence suggests that she lived much of her life in isolation. Considered eccentric by locals , she developed penchant for white clothing and was known for her reluctance to greet guests or later , life , even to leave her bedroom, she never married. Most of her friendships were based on correspondence.

PL was such a wonderful reading experience my first time reading it. Watching this video is so refreshing, and it's pure serotonin in my mind.

I'll look into this

Anne Carson: madly overrated.

Wow!!

Loved this lecture! Perhaps a comment on one point? The “winged seeds,” I believe are exactly that - the samara which several species of trees make. If he’s at the edge of an Italian forest, it could very well be cypress. Dead leaves don’t die and become new trees in the spring, but samaras do. They are seeds.

Thanks, Adam and Abigail.

What a treasure to find this!
