阅读艾米莉·狄金森
ENG255
主要在她的卧室和她在阿默斯特的家附近工作, 麻萨诸塞州, 艾米莉·狄金森一生创作了近1800首诗. 这一系列的工作, 在信纸或废纸上手写的, was not widely known in her lifetime; Dickinson circulated it among friends, 或者藏在她衣柜最下面的抽屉里, 为了她自己的乐趣，也为了未来的读者去发现. 我们将把艾米莉·狄金森的诗歌看作是对极端情感的精雕细琢的表现, from elation to despair; as the creation of a richly elaborated personal religion and homemade philosophy; as the decanting of an individual nineteenth-century woman's ordinary life and experiences, within the patriarchal structures and strictures of the day; as marks on paper, made within a material and household culture; as pathways in a distribution network invented by Dickinson, 与传统出版相反.
