Beschreibung

The most reliable reading edition of Emily Dickinson's poetry available anywhere, edited and introduced by a renowned Dickinson scholar.

Emily Dickinson wrote nearly 1,800 poems in her lifetime-an astonishing body of work defined by her extraordinary intellect, quick wit, and striking originality. Although she sent hundreds of poems by letter to friends and family over the years, Dickinson published only a handful before her death in 1886. The vast majority exist as manuscripts, from working drafts to fair copy bound in small booklets known as fascicles.

The Poems of Emily Dickinson: Reading Edition is the most authoritative one-volume edition of her extant work, featuring 1,789 poems total-the largest number ever assembled. It offers a single rendition of each poem, usually the latest version of the entire poem, with Dickinson's spelling, punctuation, and capitalization intact. Edited by the eminent Dickinson scholar R. W. Franklin, this edition derives from his celebrated three-volume Variorum Edition (1998).

A milestone in American literary scholarship, The Poems of Emily Dickinson: Reading Edition offers an indispensable window into the mind of a singular American poet.
