Emily Brontë : the mind of a visionary
Bibliography: leaves 216-226.This dissertation is an investigation of the visionary and philosophical aspects of Emily Brontë's works. The first five chapters deal with the visionary process such as visions, spirit guides, dreams, imagination, encounters with the darker side of the self and a union with the divine. There is considerable evidence of these mystical avenues in both her poetry and in Wuthering Heights which have been explored. It is shown how Emily Brontë's mysticism is a direct result of personal experiences which augment her reputation as one of the leading mystics in the world of literature. There are however tensions in her works, such as the cynicism of her own intellect in accepting the visionary experiences as authentic and periods of suffering when her faith is tested. These tensions have been considered within the context of her mystical encounters and philosophy. The remaining four chapters deal with the philosophy of Emily Brontë per se. Her beliefs in respect of heaven and hell, mercy and justice, power and survival, and pantheism are considered in depth. It is argued that she is an unorthodox thinker who does not believe in an eternal hell and that she has drawn inspiration for this idea from Frederick Maurice and Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is also shown how issues of power have been of interest to her from a young age and how this needs to be integrated within her philosophy. To the writer power needs to be tempered by compassion if it is to be of use to society or the individual. Her pantheistic spirit is also investigated and related to the mystical ideas

Metalanguage in Emily Dickinso's poems
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoDevido à sua complexidade e às suas tremendas implicações nas relações humanas, a linguagem sempre apresentou-se como um tema bastante intrigante para os poéticos e teóricos. Não há unanimidade, porém, quanto à sua eficiência na comunicação. Isso faz-se notar de forma particularmente clara quando as chamadas ciências exatas abandonam a comunicação verbal e saem em busca de um código próprio. A linguagem perde, então, o seu status do veículo da verdade. Esta dissertação é uma tentativa de análise de alguns poemas de Emily Dickinson sobre a linguagem e sua importância na vida humana. Nestes poemas, a poeta joga com o paradoxo força/ineficiência das palavras, bem como a significação do silêncio comparado com o vazio presente na linguagem. No capítulo introdutório, eu apresento alguns críticos da poesia de Emily Dickinson. Grande parte desta crítica contribui muito para a análise e a compreensão dos poemas. No próximo capítulo, eu faço uma breve leitura de alguns textos teóricos de Saussure, Wittgenstein e George Steiner sobre a linguagem. O terceiro capítulo contém a análise dos poemas, o que é seguido pela conclusão da dissertação como um todo. De modo geral, eu tento ler os poemas detalhadamente, trilhando as idéias paradóxicas de Dickinson sobre a linguagem, como algo ineficiente, mas necessário

Emily Caroline Barnett
In December 1882 Emily, often known by her second name Caroline, and her husband Harry Creaghe, left Sydney by steamer to join Ernest Favenc's expedition leaving from Thursday Island. The expedition was to explore a region of the Northern Territory that was bound by the Nicholson River, Powells Creek and the Macarthur (McArthur) River. Caroline kept a detailed diary of her adventures. She was one of two women on the expedition, the other was Favenc's wife. Elizabeth Favenc became ill and her husband escorted her back to Sydney. The Creaghes and four other men carried on with the expedition, a two hundred-mile (322 km) ride south-west to Carl Creek station which they reached at the end of the month. It was a dangerous and difficult task with one man dying of heat stroke. The expedition and a now pregnant Caroline reached Powells Creek on 14 May 1883. They carried onto the Katherine Telegraph Station and then to Port Darwin. They boarded a ship for Sydney on 22 August 1883.
