This thesis is a study of Emily Dickinson's religious poems.The writer
finds them interesting to study because they present Emily Dickinson's struggles
and efforts to understand God's way in dealing with her sufferings.Through her
poems,Dickinson addresses God as loving as well as cruel.In this study,the
writer takes Emily Dickinson's eight poems which bear the poet's dual attitudes
towards God.In analyzing the poems,the writer uses the literary devices;tone,
allusion,and paradox.
While talking about the highly personal matters as to questioning God's
way in dealing with her sufferings,Dickinson finally claims God's active
interference for the solution of her dual attitudes towards Him.Therefore,
through this study,the writer would show how Dickinson's dual attitudes
towards God finally leads Dickinson to find her own solution to comprehend
God.Her poems assist her to enrich and improve her spiritual life.
