  Emily Dickinson (1830-86) recasts British-Romantic themes of natural and spiritual perception for an American audience. Her lyrics about natural history build on this empiricism and develop her commitment to natural religion. Her counterintuitive combination of natural models with spiritual metaphors champions immortality.
