2000 From The World Wide Traditional Classroom
1,420 words
Harold Gardner (1983) of Harvard University has
identified several kinds of intelligence people
possess. Particularly, this finding poses
significant implications in classroom
instructions. More often than not, children and
even adults (who are grown up children) are
labeled negatively if and when they manifest
either a very fast, slow or no understanding at
the entire subject matter. Identifying childrens
various strengths among these intelligences will
direct the teachers toward more successfu...

Perception Of Death Emily Dickinson
1,109 words
Since the dawn of time, death has been one of the
greatest mysteries known to humankind. It has been
anticipated, mourned, feared, welcomed, loathed,
induced, and, through the poetry of Emily
Dickinson, death has almost been explained.
Dickinson's death-related poetic compositions
reflect a metamorphosis of style and thought that
distinguish her earlier work from that of her two
later periods, and provide a means of
understanding the mindset of the quasi-necrophobia
poet, as well as an insight t...

ter> Q: Poetry texts are powerful indicators of
society's values. Discuss with reference to two or
more poems. Emily Dickinson's poetry

society's values are seen in many of Dickinson's
poems, but they are especially noticeable in It

Love And Death As Viewed By Emily Dickinson
575 words
Of all the poetry I have read in my entire English
career, never have I read a poet who has compared
love and death so well. Not only does she grab the
readers attention using so few words, after her
poem is over, the reader is left with many
possibilities as to what it is that Emily
Dickinson meant. Her ideas about love and death
were shared in many of her poems, including The
Bustle in the House. At times her poems almost
seem to tell the reader that death is acceptable
as long as one has love...

Emily Dickinson Stop For Death

Emily Dickinson dresses the scene such that mental
pictures of sight, feeling, and sound come to
life. The imagery begins the moment Dickinson
invites Her reader into the Carriage. Death slowly
takes the readers on a sight seeing trip where
they see the stages of life. The first site We
passed was the School, where Children strove (9).
Because it deals with an important symbol, ? the
Ring? this first scene is perhaps themes
important. One author noted that the children, at

Marijuana is one of the oldest cultivated plants
(Nahas 8). Since it became illegal in 1967, there
have been questions of whether or not it is good
for purposes, such as medicine, other than being a
leisure drug. Debates between pro and con groups
for the use of marijuana in the medical
profession, have been heated and in recent months,
referendums have been pasted in a least three
states to make it accessible for medical
treatment. Personally, I fee...

s views on death, as conveyed through her poetry,
changed from poem to poem depending on her mood.
Her writings also span over many years and one can
see a progression in her thoughts on the subject
of death as she matures as a person. Dickinson was
not as interested in detail, but in the
circumference of the idea. Many of her poems leave
the reader lacking a definite answer to the issues
of death brought up within the poems. As with most

YVOR WINTERS The problem of judging [Emily
Dickinson's] better poems is much of the time a
subtle one. Her meter, at its worst that is, most
of the time a kind of stiff sing-song; her
diction, at its worst, is a kind of poetic nursery
jargon; and there is a remarkable continuity of
manner, of a kind nearly indescribable, between
her worst and her best poems. [" I like to

In Emily Dickinson's poem Hope is the Thing With
Feathers she is the speaker And as the poem states
she is a hopeless person. She talks of the virtues
of hope, and how important it is, and all the
places it can be found but she, herself has no
hope. I think the audience Dickinson intended for
