{"product_id":"letters-from-a-young-poet-von-mary-elizabeth-marshall","title":"Letters From A Young Poet","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book documents a poet''s coming to writing via  the influence of Emily Dickinson. The Emily muse  guides the young poet through a town called Bay du  Vin, where a terrible storm kills many fishermen.   The storm introduces death into the world of art,  the world created by the poet and her muse as a  kind  of placeless heaven. Titled, \"Much Madness is  Divinest Sense\/Letters from the Asylum,\" the  following section makes of its setting a  significant  symbol: a cage, a prison, an asylum and figures  finitude and limitation as a response to the  tragedy  written from the perspective of the fisherman''s  wives. The end of the  journey, \"Circumference, \"deals with the  Dickinsonian idea of limitation and expansion,the I  and the not ¿ I, and how one negotiates the  distance  between the self and other, self and God.  These  final poems investigate the world of Bay du Vin as  seen through the poet''s eyes, there is a movement  away from Emily and towards the poet''s plotting of  her own circumference. This dialogue sheds light on  the \"stuff of poetry\" and should be useful to  teachers, professors, writers  and critiques, or anyone interested in the poetic  process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838387048\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Conversation with Emily Dickinson\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838387048","offer_id":39469236158557,"sku":"9783838387048","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/48a48d59-9d5a-4b2e-b514-24ec53cb37f4.jpg?v=1757567502","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/letters-from-a-young-poet-von-mary-elizabeth-marshall","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
