81. The Poetry Of Emily Dickinson - 13.01 Atlantic Unbound The Atlantic Monthly Magazine Online's posting of a 1913 article. http://www.theatlantic.com/atlantic/atlweb/poetry/emilyd/shackfor.htm

January 1913 The Poetry of Emily Dickinson by Martha Hale Shackford N ot long ago a distinguished critic, reviewing Father Tabb's poetry, remarked, 'At his most obvious affinity, Emily Dickinson, I can only glance. It seems to me that he contains in far finer form pretty much everything that is valuable in her thought.' Are we thus to lose the fine significance of poetic individuality? A poet is unique, incomparable, and to make these comparisons between poets is to ignore the primary laws of criticism, which seeks to discover the essential individuality of writers, not their chance resemblances. It is as futile as it is unjust to parallel Father Tabb's work with Emily Dickinson's: his is full of quiet reverie, hers has a sharp stabbing quality which disturbs and overthrows the spiritual ease of the reader. Emily Dickinson is one of our most original writers, a force destined to endure in American letters. There is no doubt that critics are justified in complaining that her work is often cryptic in thought and unmelodious in expression. Almost all of her poems are written in short measures, in which the effect of curt brevity is increased by her verbal penuriousness. Compression and epigrammatical ambush are her aids; she proceeds, without preparation or apology, by sudden, sharp zigzags. What intelligence a reader has must be exercised in the poetic game of hare-and-hounds, where ellipses, inversions, and unexpected climaxes mislead those who pursue sweet reasonableness. Nothing, for instance, could seem less poetical than this masterpiece of unspeakable sounds and chaotic rhymes:

about the poem about the painting links "Soleil Levant" by Caude Monet I'll tell you how the sun rose, A ribbon at a time. The steeples swam in amethyst, The news like squirrels ran. The hills untied their bonnets, The bobolinks begun. Then I said softly to myself, "That must have been the sun!" But how he set, I know not. There seemed a purple stile Which little yellow boys and girls Were climbing all the while Till when they reached the other side, A dominie in gray Put gently up the evening bars, And led the flock away. by the President and Fellows of Harvard College, Harvard University Press. "Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot; others transform a yellow spot into the sun." -Pablo Picasso "If the world really looks like that I will paint no more!" - Claude Monet

Dickinson, Emily and Diddley, Bo: A Dictionary of Global Culture Reviewed by Mark Francis This enormous book (of 717 pages) is a work of great ambition, in that it proposes to widen the scope of traditional encyclopedia to a global dimension for the first time. But it is also refreshingly modest, as it recognizes from the outset two fundamental problems for all dictionaries or encyclopedia—those of exhaustiveness and of representativeness. In the end, its editors’ only claim is to introduce the reader, "however haphazardly, to a few of the central ideas and objects in many of the world’s civilizations [which] is, we believe, a good beginning for our lifelong travel through the range of human cultures." One of the great pleasures of any compilation of information organized alphabetically, such as this, is the surreal juxtapositions which result. For example, we can find Dickinson, Emily (American poet and letter writer), Diddley, Bo (African-American rock and roll singer and guitarist), and Diderot, Denis (French encyclopedist, philosopher, novelist, dramatist and art critic) side by side on page 181. And the greatest value of an innovative approach is the quantity of new or arcane information which emerges. One of my favorite entries, for example, is on Severo Sarduy (b. 1936), the Cuban poet, novelist, critic and painter, which begins: "Sarduy is best known for his novel Cobra (1972), which describes the transvestite motorcycle gang, The Gasoline Girls, that Sarduy and art critic Roland Barthes formed, which drove around Paris committing semi-terrorist acts."

Help Site Map Visit related sites from: Family Education Network Encyclopedia Dickinson, Emily Life Dickinson spent almost all her life in her birthplace. Her father was a prominent lawyer who was active in civic affairs. His three children (Emily; a son, Austin; and another daughter, Lavinia) thus had opportunities of meeting many distinguished visitors. Emily Dickinson attended Amherst Academy irregularly for six years and Mount Holyoke Seminary for one, and in those years lived a normal life filled with friendships, parties, church, and housekeeping. Before she was 30, however, she began to withdraw from village activities and gradually ceased to leave home at all. While she corresponded with many friends, she eventually stopped seeing them. She often fled from visitors and eventually lived as a virtual recluse in her father's house. Even before her withdrawal from the world she had been writing poetry, and her creative peak seems to have been reached in the period from 1858 to 1862. Although she was encouraged by the critic Thomas Wentworth

98. Emily Dickinson And Shamanism, By Clifton Snider A Druidic Difference emily dickinson and Shamanism. dickinson, emily. The CompletePoems of emily dickinson. Ed. Thomas H. Johnson. Boston Little,1960. . http://www.csulb.edu/~csnider/dickinson.shamanism.html

Clifton Snider English Department California State University, Long Beach "A Druidic Difference": Emily Dickinson and Shamanism That Emily Dickinson published almost no poems while she was alive yet became enormously popular when her first book appeared four years after her death is a well known fact. The 1890 volume went through eleven printings and led to a Second Series in 1891 and a Third Series in 1896; an edition of her letters appeared in 1894 (Sewall 707, n.1). Today she and Walt Whitman are generally regarded as the two greatest American poets of the nineteenth century. In Jungian terms, she is a "visionary" artist who compensates for collective psychic imbalance through an archetypal vision of another possibility (see Snider 6-7). What Jung says of visionary literature clearly applies to the best of Dickinsonís work: [. . .] it can be a revelation whose heights and depths are beyond our fathoming, or a vision of beauty which we can never put into words. [. . .] the primordial experiences rend from top to bottom the curtain upon which is painted the picture of an ordered world, and allow a glimpse into the unfathomable abyss of the unborn and of things yet to be. ("Psychology and Literature" 90). Something in her psyche drove her to probe those "heights and depths," which were often beyond her own fathoming. This something Jung calls an "innate drive" (ibid. 101), and I believe that the archetype she chiefly represents and is driven by is shamanism.

Emily Dickinson Infield Emily Dickinson Born December 10, 1830 - Died May 15, 1886 "The half cracked daughter of Squire Dickinson" published barely a dozen poems during her life but wrote over 2,000. Her father, Edward, was a lawyer and dominating figure. Emily lived her entire 56 years in his house in Amherst, Massachusetts. Except for a few brief trips to Philadelphia, Washington and Boston, Emily did not leave the area. She spent one yeat at the South Hadley Female Seminary (now Mount Holyoke College).Dressed in white, surrounded by flowers, she quickly earned a reputation for being unusual, hermetic, and eccentric. For siblings, emily had an older brother Austin, and a younger sister Lavinia. Her mother has been described as a gentle but colorless woman who was in every way subordinate to her husband. While Emily did not marry or have children, she did have several relationships. With regard to her poetry. one commentator has this to say: Dickinson's poetry is challenging because it is radical and original in its rejection of most traditional nineteenth-century themes and techniques. Her poems require active engagement from the reader, because she seems to leave out so much with her elliptical style and remarkable contracting metaphors. But these apparent gaps are filled with meaning if we are sensitive to her use of devices such as personification, allusion, symbolism, and startling syntax and grammar. Since her use of dashes is sometimes puzzling, it helps to read her poems aloud to hear how carefully the words are arrange. What might seem intimidating on a silent page can surprise the reader with meaning when heard. It's also worth keeping in mind that Dickinson was not always consistent in her views and they can change from poems, to poem, depending upon how she felt at a given moment. Dickinson was less interested in absolute answers to questions than she was in examining and exploring their "circumference."
