The Poems of Emily Dickinson. Reading Edition.

First edition thus of The Poems of Emily Dickinson, ed. by R. W. Franklin

Emily Dickinson; edited by R. W. Franklin
First edition thus. Large 8vo. Pp. [viii], 692, [4 (blank)]. Linen-backed burgundy paper boards, gilt-titled on black panel to spine; translucent salmon endpapers. Jacket design by Marianne Perlak. Introduction, appendices, index. With an integral maroon silk place-marker.
Ralph Franklin, the foremost scholar of Dickinson's manuscripts, has prepared an authoritative one-volume edition of all her extant poems – 1,789 poems in all. This reading edition derives from his three-volume work, The Poems of Emily Dickinson: Variorum Edition (1998), which contains approximately 2,500 sources for the poems. Here Franklin offers a single reading of each poem – usually the latest version – rendered with Dickinson's spelling, punctuation, and capitalization intact. A milestone in American literary scholarship.
