Respuesta :
The answer is B. It makes death seem friendly and familiar
Answer:
B). It makes death seem friendly and familiar.
Explanation:
Literary devices are employed by the authors for a specified purpose to solve which could be either to enhance the beauty and efficacy of the work by providing emphasis or clarifying a point in a distinctive style. Similarly, in this excerpt from Emily Dickinson's '712'; the purpose of personifying 'death' is 'to make death seem friendly and familiar'.
The poem '712' deals with the theme of death with a supernatural feel. Dickinson treats 'death' strangely and imaginatively by describing a personal confrontation with 'death' as a character. The author personifies death as a carriage to establish a kind of familiarity with it. The speaker enhances the point by saying that it would take her on a supernatural journey over the grave. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
