The Making of a Canon

A canon represents works of fiction among a franchise’s fictional world which are categorized as things that “actually occurred” within the fictional world they are a part of.

Her style of writing left the reader responsible to dissect the underlying meanings within her writing as her word choices included ambiguity, symbolism, and art. In “Through the Dark Sod” the reader learns of the historical background hidden in the work as the title alone leaves the reader to ponder on the author’s intention in composing the piece. Emily Dickinson reveals much about her childhood, her beliefs and the impact the events...
