What does the first stanza of "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" suggest about the speaker’s view of religious customs?
myrzilka [38]

The answer is B. She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.

 

EXPLANATION

 

Emily Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts, on December 10, 1830, to a prominent family that is influential to its communities. This makes her an American poet. She spent her seven years during her early age studying in Amherst Academy for and then briefly attended the Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before returning back to her family’s house. Dickinson was rather notorious for her isolation way of life. Dickinson was considered an unusual person, to the point of eccentricity.  

During her life, she developed a love for white clothing and her unwillingness to greet guests, to the point in later life to even leave her bedroom. Most of her friendship with others relied heavily on correspondence.  

Dickinson’s ways of writing poems are unique to her era. Dickinson wrote more than 1000 poems, nearly as many as 1800 during her lifetime, although only fewer than a dozen were actually published. Dickinson made use of many short lines, typically lacking titles and making slant rhyme her main delivery style. Many Dickinson’s poems revolved around the themes of death and immortality, of which she discussed many times with her friends.  

Even though most of Dickinson’s acquaintances were aware of her writings, it was not until her death when Dickinson’s sister, Lavinia discovered her cache of poems and then made her work public. Dickinson’s poems were subject to heavy editing especially when her first work was printed in 1890 by her personal Mabel Loomis Todd and Acquaintances Thomas Wentworth Higginson. Only starting from 1955 Dickinson’s original, mostly unchanged work became available by Thomas H. Johnson who published The Poems of Emily Dickinson.
