Emily Dickinson was different from other women of her generation in that she led a
reclusive
life but her childhood was a very happy one. After the Civil War Dickinson withdrew from society and had few contacts outside of Amherst and wore only white in her adult life. She did however maintain active correspondence with friends outside of Amherst.
It was only after her death that the magnitude of her writing was discovered. Her younger sister, Lavinia, discovered 1,775 poems bound in small packets tied with thread. Emily Dickinson was so concerned with the subject of nature partly due to the fact that her secluded life style could have given her more time to focus closely on the nature of things.
Dickinson’ s writings are complex and for many years scholars have searched for romantic inspirations but have yet to understand her work. What is understood is that her work cannot simply be described as a narrative style. In fact, her style is of most interest to recent scholars. Dickinson, although given ample opportunity, refused to allow her work to be pubilished. This is also of great interest to those studying her work. A manuscript found demonstrates how Dickinson uses a punctuation of space and lineation as a visual expression of words to reinforce the poetic meaning.
Without doubt, Dickinson’s work has influenced and continues to influence modern poetry. For her time, her style was completely unique and included the use of dashes and capitalized nouns. None of her work rhymed and she incorporated unusual comparisons to events and situations. This unconventional method of writing has heralded her as being one of me most innovative poets in the 19th century. Her writings have a revolutionary nature, demonstrating a complex, multifaceted mind that often undermines popular conception.
Her resistance to the male-dominated society set her apart from most women of her time. Dickinson defined herself as a person, not as an extension of the males in her life as most women of her time did. This resistance is well presented in her work and these have been studied by a group of researchers and many students after her death. Feminists have also emphasized her intellectual and artistic sophistication instead of describing her as a reclusive, eccentric figure.
The word "reclusive"(Line 2, Para. 1)is closest in meaning to______.
选项
A、secluded
B、sociable
C、suspended
