Emily Dickinson : A Companion Paperback / softback
by Ann Beebe
Part of the McFarland Companions to 19th Century Literature series
Paperback / softback
Description
The public is familiar with the Emily Dickinson stereotype--an eccentric spinster in a white dress flitting about her father's house, hiding from visitors.
But these associations are misguided and should be dismantled.
This work aims to remove some of the distorted myths about Dickinson in order to clear a path to her poetry.
The entries and short essays should open avenues of debate and individual critical analysis. This companion gives both instructors and readers multiple avenues for study.
The entries and charts are intended to prompt ideas for classroom discussion and syllabus planning.
Whether the reader is first encountering Dickinson's poems or returning to them, this book aims to inspire interpretative opportunities.
The entries and charts make connections between Dickinson poems, ponder the significance of literary, artistic, historical, political or social contexts, and question the interpretations offered by others as they enter the never-ending debates between Dickinson scholars.
