Emily Dickinson's lyrical poem" Because I could Not Stop for Death" was originally published posthumously in poems "Series 1 in 1890.

Correct option is D.

Emily Dickens wants to show death as a respectable gentleman, but one who is chilly and distant from her. While she refers to death as a person in her words, she wants to make sure that it is not cruel, but rather restrained.

This brings up the notion that we all doomed. It is aloof and insensitive to our own stories-this is neither good nor bad; it is simply the way things are. She renders death similarly reserved and quiet by giving it the look of a kind, courteous gentleman.

Answer from: ale414141

To establish an atmosphere of cold, formal reserve that embodies death.

Explanation:

Emily Dickens wants to portray the personification of death as civil gentlemen, but the one that is distant and cold, having no personal feelings towards her. While she refers to death as the human in her lines, she wants to make sure it is not vicious or vindictive but reserved. With this comes the idea that death comes for us all. It is reserved and unresponsive of our personal stories – it is not bad nor good, it simply is the fact of life. By giving death the appearance of the kind, polite gentlemen, she makes the idea of it equally reserved and peaceful.

She additionally wants the reader to unthreatened and at peace with the personification, in order to feel the emotional impact of the moment when the threat of nothingness becomes apparent.
