Write an essay of approximately 500 words about Emily Dickinson and discuss her as a Romantic poet. If needed, use the handout on Romanticism which I attached. Quote from the poems as needed. Be specific in your discussion.

Write an essay of approximately 500 words . All papers must be typed, double-spaced, with standard margins and fonts. You are required to use 1 secondary source for this paper, but you may certainly do so. Any secondary sources should be authoritative: recognized scholars in the field, published in academic journals, by university presses or other reputable publishers. It is your responsibility to make sure that your sources are authoritative. (Wikipedia is NOT an acceptable source under any circumstances.) All sources, both primary and secondary, should be cited according to MLA form. If you are not familiar with MLA form, get a handout from the Writing Center, consult a style manual, go to the mla.org website (or any of a number of websites that have the MLA style sheet available to download or print), or consult The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers, which is the most comprehensive source.
