American poet Emily Dickinson died in 1886. During her life, she published only about ten poems. Four years after her death, a few more poems were published. But her complete work did not appear until 1955. She was born on December 10, 1830, in the small Massachusetts town of Amherst. She lived and died in the same house where she was born. Emily received a good education. Her father, Mr. Dickinson believed that women should be educated. But he also believed that women should not use their education to work outside the home. He felt their one and only task was to care for their husband and children. Emily once said: "He buys me many books, but begs me not to read them, because he fears they upset the mind." Some experts see Emily Dickinson as the last poet of an early American tradition. Others see her as the first modern American poet. Each reader seems to find a different Emily Dickinson. She remains as mysterious as she was when she was alive. The truth about Emily Dickinson has been difficult to discover. Few people of her time knew who she was or what she was doing. No one wrote about Emily Dickinson’s poems while she was alive. Yet, it is a surprise to all of us that so many years after her death, she remains one of America’s greatest poets.
