Religion Around Emily Dickinson

Informationen zum Autor W. Clark Gilpin is Margaret E. Burton Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of the History of Christianity and Theology in the University of Chicago Divinity School. Klappentext Religion Around Emily Dickinson, although her name appears in the title, is not simply a book "about" Emily Dickinson. Instead, Religion Around Emily Dickinson tries to answer a two-sided question: do we gain a fresh perspective on nineteenth-century religion if we view it through the lens of Emily Dickinson's poetry, and do we gain a fresh perspective on Dickinson as a writer if we view her through the pivotal issues confronting religion in nineteenth-century America? Zusammenfassung Examines how the religious environment around Emily Dickinson, specifically New England Protestantism, helps in understanding her poetry, and conversely how her poetry brings attention to religious aspects of her culture and surroundings.
