I'm Nobody!Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell!they'd advertise – you know!
How dreary – to be – Somebody!
How public – like a Frog –
To tell one's name – the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!
每节分析:
The poem's first stanza tells how the speaker meets a fellow “nobody” — a friend.Together, the two nobodies can enjoy each other's company and their shared anonymity.In the second stanza, the tone of the poem changes.The speaker sounds confident.Perhaps it is her discovery that there are other people like her — other “nobodies”--that makes her feels strongly that being a “somebody” isn't such a great idea.She realizes that having a friend who understands you and accepts you as you are is more important than being admired by a lot of people or being in the “in” crowd.In the poem's second stanza, the speaker also makes a strange comparison.She says that being a somebody is like being a frog.What does this simile mean? Aside from Kermit, there aren't many celebrity frogs around.Summary
The speaker exclaims that she is ―Nobody,‖ and asks, ―Who are you? / Are you— Nobody—too?‖ If so, she says, then they are a pair of nobodies, and she admonishes her addreee not to tell, for ―they’d banish us—you know!‖ She says that it would be ―dreary‖ to be ―Somebody‖—it would be ―public‖ and require that, ―like a Frog,‖ one tell one’s name ―the livelong June— / To an admiring Bog!‖
Form
The two stanzas of ―I’m Nobody!‖ are highly typical for Dickinson, constituted of loose iambic trimeter occasionally including a fourth stre(―To tell your name—the livelong June—‖).They follow an ABCB rhyme scheme(though in the first stanza, ―you‖ and ―too‖ rhyme, and ―know‖ is only a half-rhyme, so the scheme could appear to be AABC), and she frequently uses rhythmic dashes to interrupt the flow.Commentary
Ironically, one of the most famous details of Dickinson lore today is that she was utterly un-famous during her lifetime—she lived a relatively reclusive life in Amherst, Maachusetts, and though she wrote nearly 1,800 poems, she published fewer than ten of them.This poem is her most famous and most playful defense of the kind of spiritual privacy she favored, implying that to be a Nobody is a luxury incomprehensible to the dreary Somebodies—for they are too busy keeping their names in circulation, croaking like frogs in a swamp in the summertime.This poem is an outstanding early example of Dickinson’s often jaunty approach to meter(she uses her trademark dashes quite forcefully to interrupt lines and interfere with the flow of her poem, as in ―How dreary— to be—Somebody!‖).Further, the poem vividly illustrates her surprising way with language.The juxtaposition in the line ―How public—like a Frog—‖ shocks the first-time reader, combining elements not typically considered together, and, thus, more powerfully conveying its meaning(frogs are ―public‖ like public figures—or Somebodies—because they are constantly ―telling their name‖— croaking—to the swamp, reminding all the other frogs of their identities).Question: Why does the speaker choose that amphibian as her representative of a public creature?
It's because frogs make a lot of noise.The poem says that frogs, though they can croak and make themselves heard and be noticed, are noticed only by “an admiring bog.” The bog is the frog's environment, not the frog's friend.So who cares what the bog thinks?
That's what the poem says about being a “somebody” who gets noticed by an admiring public.Frequently, the relationship is impersonal and distanced, not like a real friendship.Somebodies may have many admirers, but they might not be able to make those personal connections that real friendship offers.This special connection between two people who consider themselves outsiders is mirrored in Jee and Leslie's friendship in Bridge to Terebithia.Je and Leslie are “nobodies” who realize that being just like everyone else would be boring and would diminish their individuality.In the words of Dickinson's poem, it might be said that Je and Leslie learn that it would actually be quite “dreary to be a somebody!”
Being “nobodies” helps them find each other.
