Abstract
This article studies the theme of death in the works of the two poets Ghani khan and Emily Dickinson for whom death is the most resonant, mysterious, moving, and fascinating experience in human finitude. A comparative analysis of a selection of their works, carried out within a qualitative mode of inquiry that deploys the thematic analysis model of Braun and Clarke (2006), asserting that their poems endow the idea of death with a range of symbolic implications. They either personalize it, symbolize it, or directly elaborate on death in an optimistic way without forgetting about the sheer truth about its exterminatory impact on all living entities.
