    Extractions: (1830-1886), poet In Her Own Words On April 15, 1862, Dickinson wrote a letter, enclosing four poems, to a literary man, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, asking whether her poems were "alive." Higginson, although he advised Emily not to publish, recognized the originality of her poems and remained her "preceptor" for the rest of her life. After 1862 Dickinson resisted all efforts by her friends to put her poems before the public. As a result, only seven poems were published during her lifetime, five of them in the Springfield Republican. The years of Dickinson's greatest poetic output, about 800 poems, coincide with the Civil War. Although she looked inward and not to the war for the substance of her poetry, the tense atmosphere of the war years may have contributed to the urgency of her writing. The year of greatest stress was 1862, when distance and danger threatened her friendsSamuel Bowles, in Europe for his health; Charles Wadsworth, who had moved to a new pastorate at the Calvary Church in San Francisco; and T.W. Higginson, serving as an officer in the Union Army. Dickinson also had persistent eye trouble, which led her, in 1864 and 1865, to spend several months in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for treatment. Once back in Amherst she never traveled again and after the late 1860s never left the boundaries of the family's property. The poet's father died in 1874, and the next year her mother became an invalid. Dickinson kept more and more to herself, but she maintained correspondence with a few intimates until her death in Amherst, Massachusetts, on May 15, 1886. Her sister Lavinia subsequently discovered hundreds of poems neatly bundled and tucked away. She prevailed upon Mabel Loomis Todd and the still dubious Higginson to help prepare a slender volume

    Extractions: Emily Dickinson, nata ad Amherst, Massachussets , nel , oggi considerata la più grande poetessa americana del suo secolo, non solo non fu famosa in vita, ma non pubblicò se non sette delle sue poesia, anonime. Visse come una reclusa, nella casa dov'era nata, con la madre e le sorelle, scrivendo in segreto i versi che dopo la sua morte l'avrebbero resa celebre, e che lei definì "la mia lettera al mondo, che non ha mai scritto a me". Di salute precaria, sensibilissima, schiva e timida fino all'eccentricità, (a volte si rifiutava di ricevere chi veniva a visitarla). Emily cercava nella solitudine la grandezza di una libertà interiore senza limiti; nella sua esistenza priva di eventi, l'evento fu proprio lei, con la sua capacità di estasiarsi per la bellezza della natura, con i suoi amori vissuti solo nella fantasia, ma non per questo meno appassionati, con la sua inquietudine continua, che fa di lei una figura singolare e incomprensibile per i suoi tempi, e rende modernissimi i suoi versi.

    Extractions: Return to Poetry Pages T HE ATLANTIC MONTHLY prides itself on its history of bringing new literary talents to lightnew authors featured in our pages just in the past fifty years have included Jane Smiley, Joyce Carol Oates, Joseph Heller, Truman Capote, Raymond Carver, Ann Beattie, Ethan Canin, Amy Tan, and Tobias Wolff. But early in its existence the magazine failed to recognize the potential of one of the most formidable American poets of the nineteenth century: Emily Dickinson. In the April, 1862, issue of The Atlantic Monthly there appeared a lengthy article titled "Letter to a Young Contributor," by Thomas Wentworth Higginson. Higginsonan eminent Bostonian known both as a literary critic and as an active abolitionistoffered advice to enthusiastic young writers. The Dickinson family subscribed to The Atlantic Monthly , and it seems likely that Emily would have read the article. Much of the letter touches upon themes that were crucial to Dickinson's project: in it Higginson described editors as "always hungering and thirsting after novelties" and receptive to "new or obscure contributors"; he remarked on "the magnificent mystery of words" and praised writing that can "palpitate and thrill with the mere fascination of the syllables"; and he extolled compression as a virtue"Oftentimes a word shall speak what accumulated volumes have labored in vain to utter; there may be years of crowded passion in a word, and half a life in a sentence."

    Extractions: F ew events in American literary history have been more curious than the sudden rise of Emily Dickinson into a posthumous fame only more accentuated by the utterly recluse character of her life and by her aversion to even a literary publicity. The lines which form a prelude to the published volume of her poems are the only ones that have come to light indicating even a temporary desire to come in contact with the great world of readers; she seems to have had no reference, in all the rest, to anything but her own thought and a few friends. But for her only sister it is very doubtful if her poems would ever have been printed at all; and when published, they were launched quietly and without any expectation of a wide audience; yet the outcome of it is that six editions of the volume have been sold within six months, a suddenness of success almost without a parallel in American literature. One result of this glare of publicity has been a constant and earnest demand by her readers for further information in regard to her; and I have decided with much reluctance to give some extracts from her early correspondence with one whom she always persisted in regardingwith very little ground for itas a literary counselor and confidant. It seems to be the opinion of those who have examined her accessible correspondence most widely, that no other letters bring us quite so intimately near to the peculiar quality and aroma of her nature; and it has been urged upon me very strongly that her readers have the right to know something more of this gifted and most interesting woman.

I do not cross my father’s ground to any house or town. — Emily Dickinson Emily Dickinson Emily Dickinson was born almost precisely under the vertical Midheaven line of her Pri­mary Saturn, in Amherst, Massachusetts, where she lived for most of her “reclusive” and “solitary” (Primary Saturn) life. One of the most important poets of modern times, she is renowned for the unusually “constricted, self-imposed lifestyle of exile, deprivation, and severity” (Saturn) that characterizes both her poetry and her life. Emily was the daughter of Edward Dickinson, a lawyer known for his “austere” and “remote” nature (Primary Saturn), who was said to have laughed only once in his life and whose heart Emily called “pure and terrible.” Her mother, Emily Norcross Dickinson, was also characterized as “emotionally distant” (Saturn). In addition, Emily had to contend with her family’s “strict, post-Calvinist Puritanism”1 (Saturn): influences that she reacts to and addresses directly in her verse.

    Extractions: Emily Dickinson, one of America's most famous poets, was born in Amherst to a prominent family. She was educated at Amerherst Academy, the institution her grandfather helped found. She spent a year at the Mt. Holyoke Female Seminary, but left because she didn't like the religious environment and because her parents asked her home. In her twenties, Emily led a busy social life, but she became more reclusive with each passing year. By her thirties, she stayed to her home and withdrew when visitors arrived. She developed a reputation as a myth, because almost never seen and, when people did catch sight of her, she was always wearing white. But while she withdrew from physical contact with people, she did not withdraw from them mentally. Emily was an avid letter-writer who corresponded with a great number of friends and relatives. 1000 of these letters (a portion of what she wrote) survived her death, and they show her letter writing to be very similar to her poetic styleenigmatic and abstract, sometimes fragmented, and often forcefully sudden in emotion. Emily often included poetry with her letters to friends. Her friends encouraged her to publish, but after an attempt to do so in 1860 (when the publisher suggested she hold off) Emily did not appear to try again. The eight poems that were published in her lifetime were primarily poems submitted by her friends without her permission. Her death revealed 1768 more poems.

    Extractions: Emily Dickinson Photo used with permission from the Amherst College Archives and Special Collections As children, creativity is an aura around us; children are encouraged to play pretend, let their imaginations expand, and think as freely as possible. They live in creative, improvised worlds, making up their own guidelines and being rewarded for attempts, failed or successful, at forming art, through outlets ranging from scribbles on scraps of paper to lessons taught to a class full of imaginary students. This childhood freedom, however, is typically not encouraged in post-secondary education; when it is, the results are more rewarding than a participant or audience member could ever imagine. As an English major I had always felt inspired by what I am studying: Morrison evoked an irresistible urge in me to write poetry, and More caused me to be intrigued by the English court system in the sixteenth century. Usually, I had been forced to allow the products of my inspiration to come alive only as pleasure reading, or stanzas etched in the margins of my notebook. I have been privileged to be a student in a few classes where this inspiration has blossomed into creative works, though. It is hard to look back at the quality of the work in these classes without being truly impressed by the projects that were presented by students, many of whom had little or no experience in art. The feeling of accomplishment by those students, comparable to the feeling experienced by a child who has proudly sketched a refrigerator-worthy family portrait, is something not seen everyday in traditional classrooms.
