Question Posted Sunday February 21 2010, 7:08 pm

i need some help in english, i dont need answers but i need some starting ideas. i have to write an essay and in it i have to compare Walt Whitman's technique in one or more of those poems to Emily Dickinson's.
can you help me with ideas on what kinds of techniques they both have, and maybe how to get the essay started?

Not sure what essays he has, but have you looked at how he uses rhythm, rhyme, sentence length to represent his ideas? And how this compares to Dickinson?
Otherwise look at the Language used; simalies, mataphors, religious language (and what is implied behind this), pastoral imagary? etc.
