You mention the difficulty of understanding her poems. I'm sure you've seen books with side-by-side translations of Shakespeare's plays into modern English. This has helped me enormously in enjoying Shakespeare and helping me get intimate with the language. I don't particularly enjoy the "struggle" of understanding poetry and am grateful for these translations. After reading the modern version, you go back and read the original, and it's suddenly accessible and clear. So... why rack your brains so much with struggle? In any case, I am wondering if there is something similar out there for people who want to study Dickinson. A book with an editor's line-by-line explanations. If not, someone should write one. PS my favorite poem of hers is the one that begins Ample make this bed.
Wow, amazing that people don't understand that a dash is a dash is a dash and not a comma or a semi-colon. A dash is an opening, it's a space between two related phrases or ideas which do not follow each other like the list of a comma or the semi-colon by which two ideas are specifically linked as one either subordinate to the other or used as punctuation at the end of a list to denote another section of a sentence.. Also that capitalizing words was done in her day and beyond. Many words were capitalized like titles, many proper nouns, many nouns as well as words considered significant. I use capitals as I please. I miss punctuation as it's always spoken to me in ways that words cannot.
I thought that Emily told her sister Lavinia to burn her letters, but didn't say anything about her poems, which is why Lavinia did not destroy Emily's poems.
We don't capitalize soul because it is about the individual and she knew that. The soul is an identity to the person and it's up to you whether or not to capitalize it.

Oops..haha...leave the discovery of the dessert all to us to find out on our own. Lol. In short, you give a great summary without the spoilers. Keep it up.
Haha I just love this video so much. I love at how you just unabashedly love Emily Dickinson. It's like out of respect for your individual love of her you serve up an appetizer and tell us of the supper to come but leave the discovery of des
