Description

Of the nearly 1800 poems that Emily Dickinson wrote, only eleven are known to have appeared in print while she was still alive, some heavily edited, many dubiously acquired, and all published without attribution. Our edition explores this curious subsection of her work, with particular attention to the editorial journey of her published poetry. How did these poems make it into the hands of editors? Whose decision was it to render them in print? And most importantly, how did these published poems represent—or obscure—the poet herself?
