I have loved Emily Dickinson growing up and I am extremely glad people can find solace in her words. If anyone is interested beyond her poetry you may like her letters to Sue in the book ‘Open me carefully’.
Thank you. I am currently reading the large biography, "My Wars Are Laid Away In Books". which has me enthralled about the times and places in which she experienced her life.
Greatest American poet; one of the world's finest. Her words take us away from all else and inspire deep thought. Thank you for this old, excellent, inspiring video. Gave me chills at times.
She knew she couldn’t publish as herself because of how women were expected to be at that time in history. She didn’t want to embarrass her family. There is way more to her than historians know. I feel it whenever I read her. She was sexy.
Wonderful, multidimensional introduction to this "before her time" woman. Thank you for your presentation documentary that gave me the desire to learn more about before unknown (to me) Emily Dickinson.
She wrote on gummed paper like that still used today for notepads in a kitchen or at a bar: quick notes to be ripped off carefully ans kept. She wrote offhandedly in pencil in her poems that I read in the rare manuscript reading room at the L of Congress. The length and character of her dashes cannot be seen in published renditions of her poems, but in seeing them I saw how quickly she had put them on paper. I got the feeling that she did not like the definiteness of punctuation.
Can someone please tell me the name of the piece of music at 9.12 ? I know it but just can't remember the name. Thank you for this documentary Love the documentaty - I knew nothing about this lady before, and so enjoyed the learning. 💕

This may be an episode from a PBS program circa 1983 called "Voices and Visions."
I love Emily Dickinson
Thank you for sharing this mr. Ward...it touched my soul. 🙏
Brilliant and beautiful. Will return to it again and again. Thanks.
She is my favorite poet and her vision is perfect

The daggers of knowing with never a blink.
I've written break up poems before; only I'm embarrassed by mine now ; _)_
