Rejecting the view that interprets Emily Dickinson exclusively
as a proto-modernist poet, Joanne Dobson finds Dickinson rooted in
the expressive assumptions of her contemporary women writers. By
looking at Dickinson in the context of these writers, Dobson
uncovers the effects of common grounding in a cultural ethos of
femininity that mandated personal reticence. Combining literary
history and contemporary feminist literary theory, this study
posits a complex interaction of personal preferences and editorial
policies that resulted in a community of expression with impact on
women's writing and literary careers.
