Question

Where does Dickinson (or at least a character she created) celebrate the Sabbath? A. In a church B. In a meadow C. In a garden D. In a cemetery E. At Home

Answer 1

Emily Dickinson's character celebrates the Sabbath at home, appreciating nature's beauty as a spiritual sanctuary, as portrayed in the poem 'Some keep the Sabbath going to Church'.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the poem 'Some keep the Sabbath going to Church' by Emily Dickinson, the speaker, presumably a character created by Dickinson, expresses celebrating the Sabbath at home, not in a traditional church setting. Dickinson poetically presents nature and the comfort of home as a spiritual sanctuary, which can be seen in the lines 'I keep it, staying at Home, With a Bobolink for a Chorister, And an Orchard, for a Dome'. The answer to your question is E. At Home.
