Theme in emily dickinson and robert frost poem

“Because I Could Not Stopped for Death” by Emily Dickinson and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost are the poems that I have chosen for this assignment. This essay will analyse the treatment of language and style by both poets in conveying theme for each poem.

Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost are two Modern American Poets who consistently wrote about the theme of death. In “Because I could not Stopped for Death”, Dickinson provides detailed information and description of feelings when she expresses her vision of her own death. The poem is about journey after life which is inevitable and may be unpleasant. In “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”, the poem deals with one’s responsibilities and obligations in the journey of life before death occur. The speaker is caught between his desire to remain still, by the serene beauty of the woods and his contrasting need to live, to return to his responsibilities. (DiYanni, Robert.1990)

Dickinson shows that death does not need to be painful. Her poem maintains a peaceful tone by using words like “slowly” and “passed�

Her last destination which is her own grave is described clearly as we can see a newly buried ground with “Cornice” which symbolises the interior decoration of the coffin.
