Analysis Of Much Madness Is Divinest Sense By Emily Dickinson

The question most asked by philosophers and people alike is, “What is the meaning of life.” It is rightfully questioned, but ambiguously answered. This is similar to a small child questioning why the sky is blue. Sure there is a scientific explanation, but why blue? Why the color blue is called blue? Those questions are simply answered by, “Because it is.” Of course that can’t be the answer for our quest in life. People everywhere want to be remembered for who they are or something they have done. In that sense, people’s answer to the previous question is to impact society in a way it has never been impacted. Take this for example; Stephen Jobs founded the company called Apple, which is now a multi-billion dollar technology company that impacts

The main theme of her poem is that one who seems insane may in fact be the one who has figured everything out. In this excerpt, “Demur – you’re straightway dangerous -/And handled with a Chain – “, the same person is a minority and is considered to be dangerous to the majority of society and must be held with caution. In Dickinson’s time women were held to certain duties, which consists of marrying a man, having children, taking care of the house, and cooking. This interpretation of the poem makes sense if Dickinson is speaking about herself and how she is a recluse compared to the rest of her society. She rebelled against the majority and decided not to do what was common, but instead sit inside and write poems. In return people probably did not think she was sane and treated her like a crazy person. This connects to the middle-class subject because many people think of middle-class as average and somewhat boring. Just because the majority of middle-class people work boring jobs, drive boring cars, and end up living boring lives does not mean all of them do. One can stray away from the majority and live a very interesting life without having to be higher in the social class system. This backs up that ensuing a middle-class life can be rewarding after

According to Sachs (2011), America used to be a great middle-class country and without that strong middle-class there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor. Sure it would be great to take money from the rich and hand it to the poor making only a single group social class system, but that is considered socialism and is frowned upon for many good reasons. The decline of the middle-class in the United States of America has made it harder to provide health care, retirement programs, and invest in the future. (Rand 2013) Many big businesses outsource work to third world countries for cheap labor to keep prices for their product lower. This hurts the middle-class because fewer jobs are provided for Americans, which is one of the biggest reasons why people fall into poverty. The society then suffers from lack of jobs, rising health care, and not enough savings. The middle-class copes with these symptoms through working longer in life, holding out of retirement longer, and using government handouts. According to Rand, the latest Census data shows us that the average American family has gotten poorer within the last ten years (2013). It has also been shown that the middle-class is further in debt due the real estate values have gone down. The houses that people bought years ago are worth less than today. Without money in the middle-class fewer miscellaneous products are bought, as a result the majority of the
