in a six page comparative essay explain what these poems teach us about leading fulfilling lives
In a full 6 page comparative essay you must compare the following poems and write about how they teach us about fulfilling lives.
The poems are:
Emily Dickinson: 249 Wild Nights—Wild Nights!
Emily Dickinson: 303 The Soul selects her own Society
Li-Young Lee: The Gift
Here is also something that could be of help.
Follow-up questions: (You do not need to answer all of these questions directly in your thesis or essay, but you can use them to refine your thinking and your arguments.) Is “fulfillment†actively or passively achieved? What are the roles of impulsiveness or patience in this endeavor? How permanent or fleeting is the feeling? How dependent are we on others? How should someone deal with hardships, sorrow, and physical pain? Is total fulfillment ever really possible? What are close synonyms of “fulfillment,†and what are its opposites? By what different experiences do the speakers learn the lessons you describe?
This essay has to be original and stays on with the topic of the question.
