- Sinopsis
- Emily Dickinson (1830-1886), the reclusive and intensely private poet saw only a few of her poems (she wrote well over a thousand) published during her life. After discovering a trove of manuscripts left in a wooden box, Dickinson's sister Lavinia fortunately chose to disobey Emily's wishes for her work to be burned after death. With the help of Amherst professors, Lavinia brought her sister's gifted verse into print. It is here, in "The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson", that we witness her singular poetic depth and range of style. Collected are the first three series of her posthumous publishing career coming out respectively in 1890, 1891, and 1896. The myth that surrounds Dickinson's life is enhanced by the ethereal quality of her poetry. With the coming of New Criticism in the 1930's and 40's, Dickinson experienced unprecedented posthumous acclaim, solidifying her place in American letters. Dickinson's idiom is as varied as her meter, and her unconventional use of punctuation, metaphor, and image make her an innovator of the lyric akin to many of the early modernists. These poems examine love, death, and nature with an effortless yet complex tone and voice. Now one of the most read and admired American poets, Dickinson's poetry continues to resonate with readers.
- Acerca de Emily Dickinson
Emily Dickinson nació en 1830 en Amherst, una pequeña ciudad de Massachusetts, en el seno de una familia influyente (su padre, Edward, abogado eminente, era diputado en el Congreso de Estados Unidos). Después de haber estudiado en la Academia de Amherst, en 1847 entró en el Seminario femenino de Mount Holyoke, aunque interrumpió sus estudios al año siguiente, afectada por una fuerte nostalgia por su familia y el paisaje natal. Excluidas algunas breves estancias en Washington, Filadelfia y Boston, llevó una vida retirada y solitaria en la casa paterna de Amherst, ocupándose del jardín, escribiendo poesía y manteniendo una extensa correspondencia con amigos y tutores. Murió en 1886. Su obra, integrada por 1.775 poemas, de los cuales no llegó a publicar ni una decena en vida, hace de ella una de las voces más significativas de la literatura norteamericana.
