The Music of Emily Dickinson's Poems and Letters
Angebote / Angebote:
Music is a vital element in the poems and prose of Emily Dickinson but, despite its importance, the function of music as a literary technique in her work has not yet been fully explored. What information exists is scarce and scattered. This book considers the music of Dickinson's life and times and how it influenced her writing, how she combined music and poetry to create her own style, several 19th century reviews important for what they reveal about the musical quality of her work, and her use of Protestant hymns as a model. It also provides insights into musical interpretations of her poetry as related to the author by some fifty modern-day composers and arrangers, and discusses musical reflections of her poems and letters.
