Poems | Emily Dickinson
13 posts | 6 read | 2 to read
As is well documented, Emily Dickinson's poems were edited in these early editions by her friends, better to fit the conventions of the times. In particular, her dashes, often small enough to appear as dots, became commas and semi-colons.

#poetrymatters Aug 19: never

I never hear that one is dead (1325) by Emily Dickinson

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson, born in Amherst, MA, on December 10, 1830. After her death in 1886, her family found her hand-sewn books, or “fascicles,” which contained nearly 1,800 poems. But a complete volume did not appear until 1955. And it was not until 1998 that her order, unusual punctuation, & spelling choices were completely restored.

I've been out of grad school for over six months and am beyond thrilled to have a pile of reading in front of me 📚😍 looking forward to this Dickinson workshop in July!

Jess_Read_This How neat! My GR bookclub has a poetry talk section and I just posted her Nobody poem that we are discussing. I bet that workshop will be fascinating. 7y

dixi_e @shawnmooney But I made some editing changes for the better, I think. 8y
