Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman may have differences in their poetry writing styles; points of view and structure. A good example of it, it’s how Dickenson tends to write longer pieces related to his own life experience, While Whitman contextualized his poetry to his historical context. Nevertheless and undoubtedly both authors share the same recurrence on talking about death in their poems. Each author relates death and how it's related to human beings. For instance, both wrote poems based on the civil war. While Dickenson analyzed death from a more religious point of view, seeing the transcendence of life and good behavior, Whitman relates it to a more human-centered view –e.g. the mother’s poem- where he captivates with seeing the beauty even in the most painful situations. In brief, both apply this Transcendentalism and influence American literature on appreciating life and human beings.
Rebecca Saxe and her colleagues conducted an experiment on morals and social habits. The most important conclusions are the following:
- When people gather in large groups, there is a possibility that both good and bad things may happen. Although a group may have good intentions (on social, political, or other aspects), there is always a possibility that this group may harm those outside the group.
- Saxe states that a person individually can express a certain morality and values but, when being in a group, those could be set aside. The individual could even end up doing things that contradict what he/she personally thinks. This can be explained because in this group, the individual experiences anonymity and feels no need to take responsibility for the group’s actions.
- The hypothesis of the research argues that when an individual enters a group, they can be ignore their individual and moral beliefs, being prone to participate in activities that they might consider arguable if they were not part of it.
