  • Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (December 10, 1830 - May 15, 1886) was an American poet. Little-known during her life, she has since been regarded as one of the most important figures in American poetry.
    Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts into a prominent family with strong ties to its community. After studying at the Amherst Academy for seven years in her youth, she briefly attended the Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before returning to her family's house in Amherst.

    My maternal granny, Thalia Norcross, was the person through whom we are related to Emily. Mom was Jana Vee Norcross. I'm a new writer, starting my literary career at 73.

    This is like diving deep into the life and era of Emily Dickinson. The way she lived and wrote, is an inspiration to poets.
    Thanks for this Video, Paul.

    Julie Harris is the best person to represent the voice of Emily. Her recordings of the poems are the finest.

      I've found a great translation of "Hope" - Esperança in Portuguese by Adalberto Müller. There may be even better ones, I am not really into poetry, but I was impressed by both the original and the translation.

    Emily Dickinson has such a unique voice and way of talking about the deep, interior things of life. The film “A Quiet Passion” starring Cynthia Nixon as Dixon and Julie Harris’ marvelous one woman show “The Belle of Amherst” show Dickinson in ways that make her poetry speak and come alive.

    There is a fact that intrigues me,
    Is the white dress that hangs in Emily's room, is it the same dress that she wore,
    I mean, it's not a replica?

    • @gaynorroberts8201
      @gaynorroberts8201 2 місяці тому

      Oh it would be a replica. A dress from that era would become moldy or even rot from exposure to the air. i don't think the narrator (Julie Harris) would sit that close to the original dress either.

    Rare, mysterious, weird , recluse. Ignorant blasphemy against a great poet. Rejected by an obtuse editor at the Springfield Republican newspaper who told her she could not write.

  • @Scapegrace74

    I don't understand why Lyndall Gordon's theory that Emily Dickinson was epileptic, set out in Gordon's 2010 bio of Emily, "Life Like Loaded Guns," isn't given more--or any--consideration in discussions of Emily's behavior and personality, especially later in her life, when she became reclusive.

    • @RiaLake
      @RiaLake 11 місяців тому +1

      Probably, because it's only a theory, not fact.

    • @Scapegrace74
      @Scapegrace74 11 місяців тому

      Speculation about her behavior and life is ongoing. There's much more theory than fact.
      I read Ms. Gordon's book and found her theory interesting and persuasive; but I have waited in vain to hear or read any mention of it.
      So here we are.
      Edit: Dr. Graeme Yorston, a neuropsychiatrist, has a UA-cam channel in which he discusses the possible medical and mental health issues of famous people, many of them in the arts, and he has a video on Emily. He said unequivocally that ED was not epileptic and that Lyndall Gordon misread the medical records she made reference to in her book.

    • @doreekaplan2589

      Her world was an interior one. She barely practiced interacting with others, not making her a mental case
