Emily Dickinson (December 10, 1830 – May 15, 1886) was
an American poet who, despite the fact that less than a dozen of her nearly
eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime, is largely considered
one of the most original and influential poets of the 19th century.
What is known today about Dickinson's personal life has
largely been taken from hundreds of letters that she wrote to family and
acquaintances as well as (sometimes biased) impressions about her character that
were written in the diaries and journals of those close to her. Born in Amherst,
Massachusetts to a successful family that had strong ties to the community, she
lived a mostly introverted and reclusive life.
She was schooled at the Amherst Academy for seven years
before spending a truncated amount of time at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary.
After leaving school, she rarely traveled outside of Amherst or very far from
her family's home, which was called the Homestead. During this time, Dickinson
became a prolific private poet, choosing to publish only a handful of her poems,
all of which were greatly altered to fit the more conventional poetic rules of
the time.
Dickinson's poetry is lyrically unique for the time
period; her lines are short, typically lack titles, and often utilize slant
rhyme and unconventional capitalization and punctuation. Her poems also tend to
deal with the themes of death and immortality, two subject matters that plagued
her personal letters to friends. (Wikipedia)
