The ideas from Dickinson's poetry that reflect shifts in American literature in the nineteenth century include the following:

1. Understanding that life processes are directed by the divine:

Yes.

  • Dickinson understood that all life processes are divinely directed.  She believed in God.  Though, she refused to participate in public worship, preferring to worship God in her heart and home.  She noted that some people go to Church to keep the Sabbath while others keep the Sabbath at home.

2. Respecting the power of nature:

Yes.

  • Dickinson freely employed the concepts of nature in her poems and reflections.  She reflected that Nature is so dynamic and changing that one cannot stand still with Nature.

3.  Reflecting on the meaning of equality and freedom:

Yes.

Dickinson recognized that there is a lack of freedom and inequality in the world.  She even bemoaned this inequality when she wrote that she was 'sh-t up in prose.'  Perhaps, that explains why she wrote so many wonderful poems.

4.  Appreciating the value of introspection and intuition:

Yes.

  • Dickinson lived her life in introspection and showed the value of intuition in understanding natural events.  She highly appreciated and valued introspection and intuition, spending less time in public spaces.  She preferred her home and her heart as the best places to live out life.

The issues explored by Emily Dickinson vary greatly.  She used images from religion, nature, music, law, medicine, commerce, domestic activities, and fashion to ask questions about the universe.

The wonders of nature were not left out.  She probed her self-identity.  She also asked questions about death, love, and immortality.

Thus, the ideas from Dickinson's poetry reflect shifts from Romanticism to Transcendence in American literature, as she heavily used unconventional grammar to capture her feelings on the increasing fracture and diversification of the United States.
