Ralph Waldo Emerson and Emily Dickinson are the two most interesting poets in America. They are all fascinated by transcendental movements teaching "unity of creation, human justice, and excellence in insight into logic and reason" (Woodberry 113). The movement also taught them to refuse "religious authority" (Sherwood 66). Through this decentralization, they can express their personality. By accepting this personality, they can explain the ambiguity about the faith of God.
As a young woman, Dickinson began to read the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. She is not entirely within the scope of transcendentalists, but her work is strongly influenced by Emerson and Thoreau. Dickinson started writing her poems in a romantic era, but her job seems to be extraordinary. Her most productive work is around the civil war where she is.
Because I can not stop dying, compare Dickinson's poetry - I hear the topic of flying - When I die
Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman's poem contains the same theme as Emerson, but contrary to the abstract theory, it is written in a more specific way. Dickinson is mainly writing about independence and private. Many of Dickinson's poems such as "I die for beauty" and "I can not stop because of death" are all about immortality. She believes that death is a private matter everyone will experience alone, and makes everyone isolate. In contrast, Whitman depicts a more democratic aspect of the universal self. The difference between him and Emerson is that he believes that society is beneficial to individuals who oppose personal thoughts. The poem 'My own song' says that everyone is an individual, but the difference should not separate everyone. "My tongue, all the atoms in my blood are formed from this earth, this kind of air, parents born here are born here like parents." It is not important, the same universe Because everyone was created
