This poem is Dickinson
’
s most famous and most defense of the kind of spiritual
privacy she favored, implying that to be a Nobody is a luxury incomprehensible
to a dreary somebody
—
for they are too busy keeping their names in circulation.
But to be somebody is not as fancy as it seems to be.

Emily Dickinson
As you probably noticed when you read this poem, none of the themes that I
discussed in the Overview of Dickinson applies to this poem. My list was not
meant
to
cover
every
topic
Dickinson
wrote
on,
nor
does
every
poem
she
wrote fit neatly into a category.

Dickinson
adopts
the
persona
of
a
child
who
is
open,
naive,
and
innocent.
However, are the questions asked and the final statement made by this poem
naive?
If
they
are
not,
then
the
poem
is
ironic
because
of
the
discrepancy
between the persona's understanding and view and those of Dickinson and the
reader. Under the guise of the child's accepting society's values, is Dickinson
really rejecting those values?

Is
Dickinson
suggesting
that
the
true

somebody
is
really

The
child-speaker
welcomes
the
person
who
honestly
identifies
herself
and
who
has
a
true
identity.
These
qualities
make
that
person

in
society's
eyes.
To

is
to
have
status
in
society;
society,
the
majority,
excludes
or
rejects
those
who
lack
status
or

In stanza 2, the child- speaker rejects the role of

as
self- important
and
constantly
self- promoting.
She
also
shows
the
false
values
of
a
society
(the

bog
spongy
ground)
have
positive
or
negative
connotations?
What
qualities
are
associated with the sounds a frog makes (croaking)?

Is there satire in this poem?

Some readers, who are modest and self- effacing or who lack confidence, feel
validated by this poem. Why?

To Make a Prairie…


To make a prairie
























It takes a clover and one bee,
One clover and a bee,
And revery.
Revery alone will do,
If bees are few.


去造一个草原



张祈试译

去造一个草原

需要一株三叶草和一只蜜蜂，

一株三叶草和一只蜜蜂，

还有梦。

如果蜜蜂不多，





























单靠梦也行。

Dickinson's tiny
poem
makes a
huge
statement
about
the
nature
of musing,
day- dreaming, or as she puts it,

Analysis

This little poem expresses Dickinson’s continuing love affair with the spiritual
level of being. She begins by claiming that to make a physically large item, “a
prairie,” all one needs is two small physical items, “a clover and one bee.”

Then she qualifies that by saying, “One clover, and a bee / And revery”; then
she
qualifies
that
claim
further,
by
saying
if
you
don’t
have
one
of
those
physical components, “bees,” (and by implication, the clover as wel
l), then you
can still make the prairie by revery alone.

“Revery”
means
dream,
thought,
extended
concentration
on
any
subject,
or
even
day- dreaming
wherein
the
mind
is
allowed
to
roam
free
over
the
landscape of unlimited expansion, but to the speaker in t
his poem, “revery” is
more like meditation which results in a true vision.

The
speaker’s
power
of
revery
demonstrates
an
advanced
achievement,
far
beyond
ordinary
day-dreaming
or
cogitation.
Ultimately,
this
speaker
is
claiming that without any physical objects at all, the mind of one advanced in
the art of revery can produce any object that mind desires.
