2022 Reprint of the 1924 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (1830 - 1886) was an American poet. Little-known during her life, she has since been regarded as one of the most important figures in American poetry. Nearly a dozen new editions of Dickinson's poetry, whether containing previously unpublished or newly edited poems, were published between 1914 and 1945. Martha Dickinson Bianchi, Dickinson's niece, published collections of her aunt's poetry based on the manuscripts held by her family, whereas Mabel Loomis Todd's daughter, Millicent Todd Bingham, published collections based on the manuscripts held by her mother. These competing editions of Dickinson's poetry, often differing in order and structure, ensured that the poet's work was in the public's eye. Our edition reprints the collected poems originally published by Little, Brown and Company in 1924 using manuscripts held by Dickinson's family. More than 300 poems are collected and published.
Autorenporträt
Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) was born in Amherst, Massachusetts. After an unusually thorough education for a woman of her time, she began writing poems that drew on her wide knowledge of literature, scripture, and the political discourse of her day. Dickinson fell in love several times during her life but never married, preferring instead to live an increasingly secluded life. She entrusted a number of poems to a well-known editor but published only one poem under her name during her lifetime. With the posthumous publication of her work she was soon recognized as one of the world's great poets.
