The poems of Emily Dickinson demonstrate exactly the conscience of the wrapped dilemmas in the relation poet/woman, especially in the crash with a literary tradition that excludes women of the activity of writing. So, the social pressure that women were forced to hold up, certain standards of behavior, which didn`t include the poetic vocation, certainly affected also the poet of Amherst, doing so that she felt the necessity of creating manners to confront tradition like the auto-seclusion, which meant that she really knew how to be a woman that poetizes in that context:


Excerpt from Emily Dickinson's poem:

"I hide myself within my flower, /That fading from your Vase, / You, unsuspecting, feel will be me – / Almost to loneliness” (Poem J 903 / Fr 80).


So, the correct answer is B.
