Publisher's Synopsis
""Poems By Emily Dickinson First Series"" is a collection of poetry written by the reclusive American poet Emily Dickinson. The book is edited by Mabel Loomis Todd and includes an introduction by Thomas Wentworth Higginson. The collection was first published in 1890, four years after Dickinson's death, and contains 114 poems. The poems are characterized by their unconventional style and themes, often exploring topics such as death, nature, and spirituality. Many of the poems are short and use unconventional punctuation and capitalization. Todd's editing of the collection has been criticized for altering Dickinson's original punctuation and capitalization. Despite this, the collection remains a significant contribution to American literature and a testament to Dickinson's unique voice and poetic style.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
