Literature lovers
In this online reading breakfast session, we intend:
▪To continue creating a reading community of lovers of literature.
▪To continue developing reading strategies to tackle the ambiguous nature of literary texts.
▪To learn about and explore the poetry of Emily Dickinson, a proto-modernist.
In this session, we will introduce Emily Dickinson’s literary production, focusing on her innovative approaches to poetry and her perspectives on women's roles in society. She had a unique and unconventional poetic style and, despite her reclusive lifestyle, she produced nearly 1,800 poems, though only a handful were published during her lifetime.
We will delve into her main themes such as empowerment and self-reliance, which offer profound insights into the human experience.Through this exploration, we aim to understand how Emily Dickinson's groundbreaking views on poetry and womanhood continue to influence and inspire.
As always, we will provide a curated selection of poems beforehand for prior reading.
