Effectiveness of Poetry vs Prose

INSTRUCTIONS:

Discuss the effectiveness of poetry as a mode of expression (using examples from Dickinson and Whitman) versus the effectiveness of prose (using examples from Dickens and Dostoyevsky). Think in terms of political, psychological, personal, and other forms of expression. The assignment should be supported by the literature (quotations from the novels and the poems) AND independent research (quotes from at least one (1) critical source, meaning a literary journal article, properly cited). The paper should be three to five (3-5 ) FULL pages in length with an introduction and a conclusion. A separate page should contain the Works Cited (primary and secondary, properly formatted). Be sure to use properly cited quotes from the texts under consideration (Dickens, Dostoyevsky, Whitman, Dickinson, Lord Tennyson) to support your argument  I have attached a list of literature with links that can be referenced in this paper. Please do not use literature from these authors that are not on the list.
