문학적 테러리스트로서 에밀리 디킨슨의 시

Abstract

Hae-RyenAs a woman poet seeking to authorize herself and her voice within a predominately male literary tradition, Dickinson seeks in effect to locate herself and her creative practice in relation to the most articulate women writers of her age such as Charlotte Bronte, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and George Eliot. Under their influence, Dickinson discovered an elastic power that enabled her to dance like a Bomb, abroad" and dream terrorist dreams of annihilating the Puritan fathers, New England culture, and ultimately the entire edifice of America itself.This study attempts to analyze Dickinson's letters and poetry in the light of female poetic theory. Dickinson's femaleness is the source of the vitality of her poetry. The main concern in this study is to trace an outstanding imagination, the surprise of her novel, verbal strategies, her bold disregard of conventional shapeliness, and female consciousness peculiar to her in her poetry and to show that she is one of the most innovative female poets in revealing women's own experience of literature and women's ways of knowing.Emily Dickinson’s life and works enact the symbolic dynamic that structures the poetic tradition and larger cultural relations it represents. Dickinson’s shifting and shifty language of breaks, ellipses, compression, disjunction, indirection and logical contradiction gestures towards the language of the “maternal body” that traverses and ruptures the symbolic language of the fathers. As a female poet who reflects human situation truly, she transforms human sufferings into vast resources of poetic energy and miracle of art. <Woosuk University>
