Emily Dickinson (1830-1836) was born in Amherst
Massachusetts on December 10, 1830. Not much is known about her life because she
seldom talked to anyone outside her immediate family. She wrote about many
things in nature as a young adult.
Starting somewhere around her 30's, she went into
reclusion in her parent's house. There are many theories about why she became a
recluse, ranging from bad health, to being depressed because of a failed
relationship. About all that anyone is sure about, is that she wrote a lot of
poetry. She wrote many poems about life, starting when she was about 30. Most of
her best poems were written during the Civil War. During the 1870's, she slowed
down, but continued writing poetry.
She is famous for being one of the best poets in
American history. She is considered one of the two best American poets.
Dickinson wrote over 1700 poems. She died in 1886.
