Frases de Emily Dickinson

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson fue una poetisa estadounidense, cuya poesía apasionada ha colocado a su autora en el reducido panteón de poetas fundacionales estadounidenses que hoy comparte con Edgar Allan Poe, Ralph Waldo Emerson y Walt Whitman. Aunque provenía de una familia de prestigio y con fuertes lazos con su comunidad, Dickinson vivió gran parte de su vida recluida en su casa. Tras estudiar durante siete años en la Amherst Academy, asistió brevemente al seminario femenino Mount Holyoke, antes de regresar a la casa familiar en Amherst. Considerada una excéntrica por sus vecinos, tenía predilección por vestir siempre ropa blanca y era conocida por negarse a saludar a los invitados, y en los últimos años de su vida, por ni siquiera querer salir de su habitación. Dickinson nunca se casó y la mayoría de amistades que tenía dependían completamente de la correspondencia.

Aunque Dickinson era en la intimidad de su hogar una prolífica poetisa, durante su vida no se llegó a publicar ni una docena de sus casi 1800 poemas. El trabajo publicado durante su vida fue alterado significativamente por los editores para adaptarlo a las reglas y convenciones poéticas de la época. Sin embargo, los poemas de Dickinson son únicos en comparación con los de sus contemporáneos: contienen líneas cortas, por lo general carecen de título, contienen rimas consonantes imperfectas y una puntuación poco convencional. Muchos de sus poemas se centran en temas relacionados con la muerte y la inmortalidad, dos temas también recurrentes en las cartas que enviaba a sus amigos.

Aunque los conocidos de Dickinson probablemente sabían de sus escritos, no fue hasta después de su muerte, en 1886, cuando Lavinia, la hermana pequeña de Dickinson, descubrió los poemas que Emily guardaba y pudo hacerse evidente la amplitud de su obra. Su primera colección de poesías se publicó en 1890 por conocidos personales como Thomas Wentworth Higginson y Mabel Loomis Todd, aunque alteraron significativamente los originales. El erudito Thomas H. Johnson publicó en 1955 una colección completa y en su mayoría sin cambios, la primera de su poesía. A pesar de que tuvo una crítica y recepción desfavorable y escéptica entre finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX, Emily Dickinson está considerada de forma casi universal como uno de los más importantes poetas estadounidenses de todos los tiempos.

Emily Dickinson: Frases en inglés

“A charm invests a face
Imperfectly beheld,—
The lady dare not lift her veil
For fear it be dispelled.

But peers beyond her mesh,
And wishes, and denies,—
Lest interview annul a want
That image satisfies.”

“Fame is a fickle food
Upon a shifting plate,
Whose table once a Guest, but not
The second time, is set.
Whose crumbs the crows inspect,
And with ironic caw
Flap past it to the Farmer’s corn;
Men eat of it and die.”

The morning after death
Is solemnest of industries
Enacted upon earth,--
The sweeping up the heart,
And putting love away
We shall not want to use again

Till we are called to rise;

Our statures touch the skies.

Would be a daily thing,
Did not ourselves the cubits warp
For fear to be a king.”

Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.

Nor visited in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the chart were given.”

His musket on his breast;

In epauletted white,
I should not fear the foe then,
I should not fear the fight.”

“It makes no difference abroad,
The seasons fit the same,
The mornings blossom into noons,
And split their pods of flame.

Wild-flowers kindle in the woods,
The brooks brag all the day;
No blackbird bates his jargoning
For passing Calvary.

Auto-da-fé and judgment
Are nothing to the bee;
His separation from his rose
To him seems misery.”

And anguish absolute.
And many hurt;

Cannot excel decay;
But what of that?

I reason that in heaven
Somehow, it will be even,
Some new equation given;
But what of that?”

That rambles in the road alone,
And does n’t care about careers,
And exigencies never fears;
Whose coat of elemental brown
A passing universe put on;
And independent as the sun,
Associates or glows alone,
Fulfilling absolute decree
In casual simplicity.”

“No rack can torture me,
My soul 's at liberty.
Behind this mortal bone
There knits a bolder one

You cannot prick with saw,
Nor rend with scymitar.
Two bodies therefore be;
Bind one, and one will flee.

The eagle of his nest
No easier divest
And gain the sky,
Than mayest thou,

Except thyself may be
Thine enemy;
Captivity is consciousness,
So's liberty.”

It made us all ashamed
That what we cherished, so unknown
To her desire seemed.

So satisfied to go
Where none of us should be,
Immediately, that anguish stooped
Almost to jealousy.”
