"The most subtly intelligent discussion of Dickinson's spirituality." --Harold Bloom, Genius " . . . a truly literary study in the largest, most humane, sense. Instead of subjecting poems to the distortions of theory, it brings biography, theology, psychology, and cultural history to bear on the intricacies of language, where all the issues of the poet's life and work converge, contend, and seek resolution." --Albert Gelpi, American Literature " . . . insightful readings of many of Dickinson's difficult poems and . . . a significant contribution to Dickinson studies." ---Choice "McIntosh shows the power of Dickinson's religious quest in word, in verse, and in truth. He shows that she was much more than an ever-adolescent angry rebel trying to subvert the religious oppression of benighted Amherst neighbors." ---Emily Dickinson Journal No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

I enjoyed Roger Lundin's The Art of Belief, which covers the same topic, so I'm not sure why I didn't like this one. I think it might be because I'm reading a ton of academic stuff for grad school and I want to read books for pleasure that don't require that much thinking. This one requires a lot of thinking.
