Features original interpretations of Dickinson's compositional practices, reception, and influence including chapters on translations of Dickinson's work into visual arts, musical composition, international cultural practices, popular culture, and other languages. Considers Dickinson's composition and circulation of poems, her environmental ecology, her responses to the Civil War, and her relation to publishing and media." -- Provided by publisher. |
