1. Compare and contrast Emerson’s poem “The Snow-Storm” with Emily Dickinson’s poem “It Sifts from Leaden Sieves.” In what ways are their depictions of the snowstorms similar and different? How do the differences affect the mood of each piece?

Respuesta :

Both poets are talking about the snow. However, Dickinson did not identify the snow. She only used the pronoun "it" in describing the snow. Emerson provided clarity when he said "arrives the snow".

The mood of It sifts from Leaden Sieves is very calm and soothing whereas the mood of The Snow-Storm is very wild and tumultuous.
