The correct answer is A. The image of the setting sun most likely not described in great detail in “Because I Could Not Stop for Death because it is a common symbol of death that requires little description.  

EXPLANATION:  

Because I Could Not Stop for Death is Emily Dickinson’s literary work. It is one of Dickinson’s poems discussing ‘death’ as the theme. Dickinson creates the character I in this poem who sees ‘death’ like kind and not scary. This poem is full of the personification of death. The speaker describes ‘death’ as, <em>“He kindly stopped for me,” “We slowly drove – He knew no haste, And I had put away.”  </em>

Death in this poem is like a person who is kind. Death stops for the speaker because the speaker could not stop for death. Death and the speaker held the carriage by themselves to eternity and immortality. The speaker seems not afraid of facing death. It seems like the speaker is ready enough to go to the immortality and eternity with death, or maybe it is because the speaker himself had died (stated in the last line of the poem).

With that in mind, because this poem is about death that is personified, the image of ‘the setting sun’ is not described in great detail because the image of it has carried the meaning of death. The image of setting sun has been broadly used in other literary works as the image of death or the end of life.

<span>The image of the setting sun was not described in detail in the poem “Because I could not stop for death” because it is a common symbol of death that requires little description. Literally, the setting of the sun means to approach darkness of the night, which depicts death in real life.</span>
