In at least one hundred words, describe how the eerie mood of Dickinson's "Because I could not stop for Death" is created in the

poem.

The eerie mood is created initially because of the subject matter of the poem. The character of Death is introduced in the first stanza, and since the 'd' is capitalized, it's clear that Dickinson is personifying death into an actual person. Thinking about Death in this way, as someone who stops to pick you up and having to get into his carriage to take the ride away from life is creepy in itself. This eeriness is supported when she uses the line "The dews grew quivering and chill." The words quivering and chill help to strengthen the eeriness that the subject matter creates. She also refers to the setting sun, which again helps give the poem an overall spooky feeling.

How does Bruno’s behaviour indicate that animals too have emotions, affection, memory and individual traits of character?
Damm [24]

Answer:

This question relates to “The Bond Love”:

Bruno is a bear that was found in the field by the author of the story who gives it to his wife. Both take great affection as Bruno grows. Despite being a wild animal, the bear is kind and playful with the family and even the other pets that live with it. After a while, Bruno is sent to the zoo leaving the author's wife and Bruno very sad. After three months, the wife visits Bruno at the zoo and the feeling of happiness of both is incomparable.  This demonstrates that animals also have feelings, emotions and deep bonds with those who care for them and treat them well. Animals do not forget those they have loved and especially those who have given love.

At the end, she got permission to take Bruno back home.
