The Letters of Emily Dickinson collects, redates, and recontextualizes all of the poet’s extant letters, including dozens newly discovered or never before anthologized.

Reproduction of the original. The publishing house Megali specialises in reproducing historical works in large print to make reading easier for people with impaired vision.

This compact edition, designed for use in undergraduate courses, combines a substantial selection of Dickinson’s poems (including one complete fascicle) with a selection of letters and a range of contextual materials. In a number of cases several different versions of a poem are presented side by side. The texts are based on the handwritten manuscripts themselves, in the facsimile form in which the Emily Dickinson Archive now makes the vast majority of Dickinson’s manuscript versions available to the general public. The three major editions that are based directly on the manuscripts—those of Thomas H. Johnson (1955), R.W. Franklin (1998) and Cristanne Miller (2016)—have also been consulted; in many cases where the transcriptions of these editors differ from one another, this edition provides information in the notes as to those differences. Extensive explanatory footnotes are also provided, as is a concise but wide-ranging introduction to Dickinson and her work. The appendices include excerpts from numerous nineteenth-century reviews of Dickinson’s first published volume (including by William Dean Howells and Andrew Lang). Thomas Wentworth Higginson’s influential Atlantic Monthly article, “Emily Dickinson’s Letters,” is also included in its entirety.

In "Poems by Emily Dickinson, Third Series," the enigmatic poet presents an exquisite collection that exemplifies her distinctive voice and innovative use of language. Dickinson's poetry, characterized by its succinctness, unconventional punctuation, and slant rhyme, invites readers into a world of profound introspection and vivid imagery. This series explores themes of death, immortality, nature, and the inner workings of the human soul, all while reflecting the quiet isolation of her life in Amherst, Massachusetts. The poems resonate with an intimate urgency, encouraging readers to ponder existential inquiries amidst her captivating metaphors and deft syntax. Emily Dickinson (1830'Äì1886), a groundbreaking figure in American literature, spent much of her life in reclusive contemplation, profoundly influenced by her personal experiences and the philosophical currents of her time, including Transcendentalism. Though she published only a handful of poems during her lifetime, her posthumous acclaim has cemented her legacy as a pioneering voice that challenges conventional norms of poetry. Dickinson's exploration of solitude and the complexities of human emotion speaks to her unique perspective, one that diverges sharply from her contemporaries. This collection is highly recommended for readers seeking to delve into the intricacies of Dickinson's thought and to experience the beauty of her insignia-drenched words.

Widely considered the definitive edition of Emily Dickinson’s poems, this landmark collection presents her poems here for the first time “as she preserved them,” and in the order in which she wished them to appear.

It is also unique among complete editions in presenting the alternate words and phrases Dickinson chose to use on the copies of the poems she kept, so that we can peer over her shoulder and see her composing and reworking her own poems.

With its clear, uncluttered page and beautiful production values, it is a gift for students of Emily Dickinson and for anyone who loves her poems.

This collection of Emily Dickinson''s work contains 444 of the nearly 1,800 poems that the prolific yet reclusive American poet privately penned during her lifetime.

Included here are such famous poems as "Because I could not stop for Death", "I''m nobody! Who are you?", and "Hope is the thing with feathers". Themes of love, loss, death, and immortality imbue Dickinson''s work with a timeless quality; her unconventional poetry continues to provide insight into the human condition.

Although Dickinson was a prolific private poet, fewer than a dozen of her nearly eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime. The work that was published during her lifetime was usually altered significantly by the publishers to fit the conventional poetic rules of the time. Although most of her acquaintances were probably aware of Dickinson''s writing, it was not until after her death in 1886-- when Lavinia, Emily''s younger sister, discovered her cache of poems-- that the breadth of Dickinson''s work became apparent.

Praise for Open Me Carefully "With spare commentary, Smith . . . and Hart . . . let these letters speak for themselves.

"The discovery of over one hundred and fifty poems written by Emily Dickinson, and hitherto unpublished, is an event of supreme importance. Among them are many of her most intimate love poems evidently purposely withheld from publication by the poet's sister. Critics have claimed that in this new group are verses and lines as imperishable in their beauty as any of those with which the world is already familiar."--Dust jacket.
