Emily Dickinson is one of the poets who attempted to ardently quest for their inner world. She was reared under the influence of New England tradition of moral Calvinism, and quested for her inner world through dissatisfaction with her tradition and unending doubts of human beings and God. She magnified her consciousness toward immortality and eternity in an effort to transcend mortality, while controlling her pain with a very rational and complex vision. This study examines the poems between 1861 and 1865, her most creative period, focusing on the theme of death, immortality, time and eternity. These themes are inseparably related to love, a concentric energy which combines the poles of death and immortality, and time and eternity. Emily Dickinson`s existential life starts from death recognized in every moment of life. At this moment, through her magnified consciousness, time is combined with eternity, death, with immortality. And love is the concentric energy through which to drive the cycle of and combine all of the disparate things: time and eternity, death and immortality and the finite and the infinite. The fusion of the contradictions can be made through the poet`s extremely magnified consciousness. The consciousness is realized in the dazzling light where time ends. The region of timelessness where time ends implies the consciousness of life which perpetually illuminates the poet`s world of poetry. The finite and the infinite, death and immortality, time and eternity are combined together in this radiant consciousness. The radiance of the consciousness which can be attained through love, a concentric energy fusing the contradiction is the ultimate point toward which the poet`s soul endlessly aspires.
