Emily Dickinson was a prominent American poet. She wrote altogether 1,775 poems, whose themes could be divided into about despair, agony, nature, love, and religion. Separation, death and loss are major themes in her poetry. Her despair poems have already been interpreted from a variety of Perspectives. In the context of her psychological deterioration in life, it is great significance realistically to reread Dickinson’s despair poetry from a new angle whose aim is to explore her mind and thought. Though her poetry was not written during the modern era (cited after Eliot’s Alfred Purfrok), however it is considered a modernist poetry due to its main themes and her technique: fragmentation, obscurity, uncertainty, and paradox. This paper aims at a better understanding of her poetry of despair; a look into her grim sad poems in an attempt to find a philosophy behind it. Her main search is for heavenly ecstasy which has a close relation to human despair: in order to attain God’s mercy, one should go through life’s adversity. This is her own experience that makes “despair” a “human condition”, and her ultimate conclusion. For her, the eventual problem is not to master despair, but as to transform her experience into great fine poetry. |
