Response Paper 1

When Reading both passages I noticed that both Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson employ their poems to communicate with their audience. It is as if both authors knew that their developments would last for generations. They both emit to their audience as if trying to describe their cities and their times and their reputation to the people they assume are reading their poems.
In Walt Whitmans Crossing Brooklyn Ferry he dialogue of the place settings around him. He is very descriptive in the way he have wordss of the places and people around him. But he describes every scene from the first perspective. At points he even talks straightaway to the reader.

What thought you claim of me now, I had as much of youI laid in my stores in advance,
I considerd long and disadvantageously of you before you were born.

From this point on in the poem he is sermon directly to the audience as if he is valued to immortalize the setting in which he lives. By speaking to the audience he transcending the norms of writing of the time. For a reader at the time that this poem came out his lines talking in the prehistoric tense would not make sense. Which makes me wonder while reading the poem now, at the time that he wrote the poem, how did the audience play off to his tone and tense?



Walt Whitman was know to write about the joined States during his time in a hopeful manner, So I also wonder if this poem was a way to write up the changes of his nation for us to now.

It was known that Emily Dickinson spent most of her life at home, so inappropriate Whitman her poems focused more on small pieces of disposition. She also compares herself to nature much more than Walt Whitman. The size of her poems and the way she feels so blind drunk to nature could be a result of her seclusion.
