Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

Sull'Autore
Emily Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts on December 10, 1830. Although one of America's most acclaimed poets, the bulk of her work was not published until well after her death on May 15, 1886. The few poems published in her lifetime were not received with any great fanfare. After her mostra altro death, Dickinson's sister Lavinia found over 1,700 poems Emily had written and stashed away in a drawer -- the accumulation of a life's obsession with words. Critics have agreed that Dickinson's poetry was well ahead of its time. Today she is considered one of the best poets of the English language. Except for a year spent at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary in South Hadley, Dickinson spent her entire life in the family home in Amherst, Massachusetts. She never married and began to withdraw from society, eventually becoming a recluse. Dickinson's poetry engages the reader and requires his or her participation. Full of highly charged metaphors, her free verse and choice of words are best understood when read aloud. Dickinson's punctuation and capitalization, not orthodox by Victorian standards and called "spasmodic" by her critics, give greater emphasis to her meanings. (Bowker Author Biography) mostra meno

Comunque, parliamo di Emily Dickinson, poetessa americana. Inizierei col dire che la Dickinson era una donna ribelle: cominciò con il rifiutarsi di professarsi pubblicamente cristiana e finì per isolarsi volontariamente nella sua stanza, in modo che i suoi pensieri e le sue poesie fluissero copiose e libere dalla sua mente.
Nonostante il suo isolamento, infatti, la Dickinson avvertiva chiaramente le tensioni del suo tempo: l'abisso che si faceva spazio tra la tradizione e il nuovo individualismo, tra il puritanesimo e il capitalismo. In pochi colsero la portata innovativa delle sue poesie: Thomas Wentworth Higginson, critico dell'Atlantic Monthly con il quale Emily Dickinson instaurò una lunga corrispondenza, definì i suoi versi “spasmodici”. Va anche detto, però, che il poveretto è passato alla storia per non aver capito un tubo della poetessa.
Lei stessa ne era consapevole (e probabilmente l'ha pure, elegantemente e poeticamente, sfottuto un po' per questo), ma si rifiutò di “sistemare” le sue poesie affinché Higginson – e coloro che la pensavano come lui – le trovassero di loro gradimento. A favore del poveruomo va detto, però, che grazie a lui ci sono giunte molte informazioni sulla Dickinson e queste ci hanno aiutato ad avere un'idea più chiara di lei.
Personalmente, sono rimasta folgorata dalla potenza della gioia di vivere e parimenti dall'abisso di dolore che sprigionano i componimenti della Dickinson. Se la sua vita sembrava insostenibilmente monotona, la sua interiorità era fervida e ricca, tanto che la vita della Dickinson si racconta più in termini di riflessioni che in termini di fatti strettamente biografici.
Il mio consiglio è di leggere le sue poesie, almeno una volta nella vita. Nella brevità dei suoi versi è racchiusa una potenza che, secondo me, va provata.… (altro)
