Affective Disorder Quot Dickinson
5,102 wordsIs There Any Medical Potential for Marijuana? 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.

Quot Quot Emily Dickinson
8,051 wordsYVOR WINTERS The three poems which combine [Emily Dickinson's] greatest power with her finest execution are strangely on much the same theme, both as regards the idea embodied and as regards the allegorical embodiment / 293 /. They deal with the inexplicable fact of change, of the absolute cleavage between successive states of being, and it is not unnatural that in two of the poems this theme should be related to the theme of death.

Emily Dickinson Fly Buzz
5,517 wordsGerhard Friedrich This poem seems to present two major problems to the interpreter. First, what is the significance of the buzzing fly in relation to the dying person, and second, what is the meaning of the double use of " see" in the last line? An analysis of the context helps to clear up these apparent obscurities, and a close parallel found in another Dickinson poem reinforces such interpretation. In an atmosphere of outward quiet and inner calm, the dying person collectedly proceed...

[" I like to see it lap the Miles" ] will illustrate the defects in perfection... / 283 / The poem is abominable; and the quality...

Quot Quot Emily Dickinson
5,953 wordsAdrienne Rich There is one poem which is the real " onlie begetter" of my thoughts here about Dickinson; a poem I have mused over, repeated to myself, taken into myself over many years. I think it is a poem about possession by the daemon, about the dangers and risks of such possession if you are a woman, about the knowledge that power in a woman can seem destructive, and that you cannot live without the daemon once it has possessed you. The archetype of the daemon as masculine is begin...

Quot Quot Barrett Browning
6,421 wordsIn On " Sisters" Annette Kolodny In many ways, Amy Lowell anticipated the recent feminist critique of Bloomian poetics when, in 1925, she applied his question " For why do men write poems? " to " we women who write poetry" : Taking us by and large, were a queer lot We women who write poetry. And when you think How few of us there been, its queerer still. I wonder what it is that makes us do it. She explains why there have been so few women poets by noting that women...
