Abstract

This text is derived from a lecture I gave to first-year undergraduates about a decade ago (in 2013). It was languishing on my computer and I thought it better to put it out there for general educational benefit, in case it helps anyone starting out with her poetry. I am, of course, by no means a Dickinson specialist, but this may prove a mode condensed introduction than, say, the excellent Cambridge Companion to Emily Dickinson, which was a guide to everything that is here. I also note that the formatting of the poems may be “off” here. I would recommend finding the originals for study alongside this.
