First published in 1890 this volume contains all three series of Poems by Emily Dickinson an extensive collection of Dickinsons very best poetry. Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (1830-1886) was an American poet commonly hailed as being among the most important figures in American poetry. Not much is known about her personal life but evidence suggests that this is because she spent most of her time isolated from other people. Those who lived around her claimed that she took to wearing only white apparel and rarely left her bedroom in her later years. Despite being a prolific writer who produced a corpus of over 1800 poems only 10 were published during her lifetime. Her poetry was considered unusual for her time incorporating a variety of odd features and breaking many of the conventional rules. Contents include: First Series - I. Life II. Love III. Nature IV. Time and Eternity Second Series - I. Life II. Love III. Nature IV. Time and Eternityand Third Series - I. Life II. Love III. Nature IV. Time and Eternity.
