"The Landscape of Integrative Thinking"and"the World of Natural Disposition and Intelligence"in Emily Dickinson's Poetry:From Critique of Rationality to Linguistic Experimentation
Emily Dickinson,an American female poet in the 19th century,creates a landscape of subjective think-ing and an individualized aesthetic space in her poems.The subjective thinking incorporates sensibility and intelligence,building up"a landscape of integrative thinking"to feel and experience the world.The aesthetic space is a spiritual world that is shaped by individual disposition and aesthetic originality.In her poetry,objects are"things-in-them-selves",not the"phenomenon"in Kantian sense;poetic characters are free human beings,perpetually acquiring and ex-panding wisdom in their existence.The poetess violates the grammatical rules and makes linguistic experiments,capitali-zing common words in any place in a poetic line.In this way,she rebels against the fixed rules of English language and dispels the hierarchical traditions of rationality.By creating a personality that shines forth with particular temperament and intelligence,Dickinson searches to recover the authentic and primordial sensibility while battling the blocking of exis-tential essentials by rational personality.
