KennisQuiz.nl Emily Dickinson De Amerikaanse dichteres Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) wordt beschouwd tot als één van de belangrijkste Amerikaanse schrijfsters. Daarnaast werden ook veel brieven van Dickinson gepubliceerd. Dickinson werd geboren in Amherst in Massachusetts de plaats, waar zij haar hele leven zou blijven wonen en werken. Emily Dickinson studeerde aan de Amherst Academy en bezocht een jaar lang een seminarie voor vrouwen in het nabij gelegen South Hadley. De dichteres leed een kluizenaarsbestaan en trouwde nooit, maar onderhield een uitvoerige correspondentie met een kleine groep mensen. Hoewel ze als eenling door het leven ging, bracht zij veel tijd buitenshuis door. De schoonheid en de rust van het landschap waren dan ook belangrijke thema's in haar werk, maar ook de liefde en vooral de dood zijn belangrijke thema's. Emily Dickinson schreef ongeveer 1800 gedichten, waarvan er zes tijdens haar leven tegen haar zin werden gepubliceerd. Haar zuster Lavinia verzorgde de uitgave van het werk van de grote dichteres na haar dood.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) Emily Dickinson,"the belle of Amherst"(the Massachusetts town where she spent her entire life), is almost as famous for her mysteriously secluded life as for her poetry, which ranks her with Walt Whitman as one of the most gifted poets in American literature. She never married, and after age 30 she almost never saw anyone outside of her immediate family. Some scholars believe that this was her response to the narrow literary establishment of her time, which expected female writers to limit their subjects to the domestic and the sentimental. Author of over 1700 poems, only 10 were published in her lifetime, and these without her permission. After her death, however, her sister found and published the body of her work.

EMILY DICKINSON (1830-1886) "New England Romantic or 1st American Modernist: An American Original" Critics have always had difficulty encapsulating, categorizing, labeling ED; they have tended to think her isolated, cut off from the Romantic mainstream of New England, or simply a frustrated spinster who wrote cryptic poetry. Oddly, Thoreau is never interpreted as a frustrated bachelor! Those virtues we've admired in her male contemporaries (individualism, eccentricity, uniqueness) have somehow deemed Dickinson a sort of half-woman in the eyes of some criticscertainly in the years before feminist criticism began to flourish in the past two decades. Dickinson herself might have accepted the label of DAISY, but she wouldn't have been very interested in the scholars' arguments about where she belongs in the literary canon or who the famous "lover" might have been. Certainly, if we study her as one of the New England Romantics, many of the biographical problems are cleared away. Yet she transcends even this interpretation.

46. Neurotic Poets: Emily Dickinson Emily Elizabeth Dickinson. (18301886). nly about a dozen of herown poems were published during Emily Dickinson's lifetime, most http://www.neuroticpoets.com/dickinson/

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson nly about a dozen of her own poems were published during Emily Dickinson's lifetime, most of them anonymously and without her permission. Emily enjoyed word-play and riddles, and fittingly so since she herself is something of a riddle and a mystery. Her life is very much open to speculation, legend and myth simply because little is known about it. The single existing photograph of her was taken when she was seventeen years old. Her over 1700 short poems were created without any apparent pattern or progression, and they contain no titles or dates. Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts. Her mother was Emily Norcross, and her father, Edward Dickinson, was a prominent lawyer and businessman, and later a Representative in Congress. Emily had an older brother named Austin and a younger sister, Lavinia. The Dickinson family were firm believers in education, for women as well as men. Emily's grandfather had helped found Amherst College. Therefore, her parents made sure she was educated in excellent schools such as the Amherst Academy and later Mount Holyoke Female Seminary. Dickinson has been described during her adolescent years as a shy, demure, neatly dressed young woman often wearing or bearing flowers. For unknown reasons, she left Holyoke after only one year, and soon began restricting most of her social interaction to members of her own family. Amherst at that time was a small town greatly influenced by the railroad, the college, and by religion. In the latter half of the nineteenth century, this area had the most ministers per capita in all of the U.S. As for Emily's own thoughts on religion, it is said that although she sometimes expressed doubts and seemed skeptical, she truly had strong religious feelings.

49. Biography Of Emily Dickinson Biography of Emily Dickinson (18301886). from Michael Myers,Thinkingand Writing About Literature, 138-42 Emily Dickinson grew up http://www.vcu.edu/engweb/eng384/emilybio.htm

Biography of Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) from Michael Myers, Thinking and Writing About Literature The Dickinsons were well known in Massachusetts. Her father ws a lawyer and served as the treasurer of Amherst College (a position Austin eventually took up as well), and her grandfather was one of the college's founders. Although nineteenth-century politics, economics, and social issues do not appear in the foreground of her poetry, Dickinson lived in a family environment that was steeped in them: her father was an active town official and served in the General Court of Massachusetts, the State Senate, and the United States House of Representatives. Dickinson, however, withdrew not only from her father's public world but also from almost all social life in Amherst. She refused to see most people, and aside from a single year at South Hadley Female Seminary (now Mount Holyoke College), one excursion to Philadelphia and Washington, and several brief trips to Boston to see a doctor about eye problems, she lived all her life in her father's house. She dressed only in white and developed a reputation as a reclusive eccentric. Dickinson selected her own society carefully and frugally. Like her poetry, her relationship to the world was intensely reticent. Indeed, during the last twenty years of her life she rarely left the house. Though Dickinson never married, she had significant relationships with several men who were friends, confidantes, and mentors. She also enjoyed an intimate relationship with her friend Susan Huntington Gilbert, who became her sister-in-law by marrying Austin. Susan and her husband lived next door and were extremely close with Dickinson. Biographers have attempted to find in a number of her relationships the source for the passion of some of her love poems and letters, but no biographer has been able to identify definitely the object of Dickinson's love. What matters, of course, is not with whom she was in loveif, in fact, there was any single personbut that she wrote about such passions so intensely and convincingly in her poetry.

E mily Dickinson selected her own society, and it was rarely that of other people. She preferred the solitude of her white-washed poet's room, or the birds, bees, and flowers of her garden to the visitations of family and friends. But for three occasions in her life she never left her native Amherst, MA; for the last twenty of her fifty-six years, she rarely left her house. And yet her reclusive existence in no way restricted her abundant life of the imagination. Her letters and poems, all except seven published posthumously, revealed her to be an inspired visionary and true original of American literature.

58. Dickinson, Emily Dickinson, Emily. (18301886), poet In Her Own Words. Born on December10, 1830, in Amherst, Massachusetts, Emily Elizabeth Dickinson http://search.eb.com/women/articles/Dickinson_Emily_Elizabeth.html

Dickinson, Emily (1830-1886), poet In Her Own Words On April 15, 1862, Dickinson wrote a letter, enclosing four poems, to a literary man, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, asking whether her poems were "alive." Higginson, although he advised Emily not to publish, recognized the originality of her poems and remained her "preceptor" for the rest of her life. After 1862 Dickinson resisted all efforts by her friends to put her poems before the public. As a result, only seven poems were published during her lifetime, five of them in the Springfield Republican. The years of Dickinson's greatest poetic output, about 800 poems, coincide with the Civil War. Although she looked inward and not to the war for the substance of her poetry, the tense atmosphere of the war years may have contributed to the urgency of her writing. The year of greatest stress was 1862, when distance and danger threatened her friendsSamuel Bowles, in Europe for his health; Charles Wadsworth, who had moved to a new pastorate at the Calvary Church in San Francisco; and T.W. Higginson, serving as an officer in the Union Army. Dickinson also had persistent eye trouble, which led her, in 1864 and 1865, to spend several months in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for treatment. Once back in Amherst she never traveled again and after the late 1860s never left the boundaries of the family's property. The poet's father died in 1874, and the next year her mother became an invalid. Dickinson kept more and more to herself, but she maintained correspondence with a few intimates until her death in Amherst, Massachusetts, on May 15, 1886. Her sister Lavinia subsequently discovered hundreds of poems neatly bundled and tucked away. She prevailed upon Mabel Loomis Todd and the still dubious Higginson to help prepare a slender volume

Heterodox Heroines Aspasia Karen Blixen Karin Boye Maria Callas ... Yim Wing Chun Aspasia. Born in the city of Miletus between 460-455 B.C., Aspasia worked in Athens as a hetaira and became the mistress of Pericles. Freed from the social restraints that tied married women to their homes and restricted their behavior, she was able to participate more freely in public life. She operated a house of courtesans where she trained young women who accompanied upper-class men to the symposiums. She was considered a leader of rhetoric, and took part in the intellectual discussions of the elite in Athens, including Socrates. Strong evidence that Aspasia's role in Athens went beyond that of mistress to Pericles is given by Plato in the Menexenus. She was one of the most influential women in the ancient Greek world.
