Letters of Emily Dickinson (Hardcover, Revised)
Expected to ship within 12 - 17 working days

Approximately 100 letters are published here for the first time,
including almost all of the letters to Jane Humphrey and to Mrs. J.
Howard Sweetser. The new material is even more extensive than it
might appear, for many of the letters previously published were
censored when first made public. This volume, designed to accompany
Mr. Johnson's previously published work, the widely acclaimed Poems
of Emily Dickinson, assembles all of Emily Dickinson's letters
(with the exception of letters presumably destroyed). The editors
present the letters chronologically, with manuscript location,
previous publication data, and notes for each letter, together with
a general introduction, and biographical notes on recipients of
letters. The notes for each letter identify persons and events
mentioned, and the source of literary allusions and quotations is
given wherever known. Since Emily Dickinson rarely dated her
letters after 1850, the dates for the most part must be conjectured
from careful study of handwriting changes and from internal
evidence of the letters. Of the 1,150 letters and prose fragments
included in this outstanding edition, the text of about 800 derives
from Dickinson autographs.
