Frases de Emily Dickinson
página 6

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.

“Not with a Club, the Heart is broken
Nor with a Stone —
A Whip so small you could not see it
I've known

To lash the Magic Creature
Till it fell,
Yet that Whip's Name
Too noble then to tell.

Magnanimous as Bird
By Boy descried —
Singing unto the Stone
Of which it died —

Shame need not crouch
In such an Earth as Ours —
Shame — stand erect —
The Universe is yours.”

“Fate slew him, but he did not drop;
She felled—he did not fall—
Impaled him on her fiercest stakes—

But, when her worst was done,
And he, unmoved, regarded her,
Acknowledged him a man.”

“The grass so little has to do,—
A sphere of simple green,
With only butterflies to brood,
And bees to entertain,

And stir all day to pretty tunes
The breezes fetch along,
And hold the sunshine in its lap
And bow to everything;

And thread the dews all night, like pearls,
And make itself so fine,-
A duchess were too common
For such a noticing.

And even when it dies, to pass
In odors so divine,
As lowly spices gone to sleep,
Or amulets of pine.

And then to dwell in sovereign barns,
And dream the days away,—
The grass so little has to do,
I wish I were a hay!”

A little brig I knew,—
O'ertook by blast,
It spun and spun,
And groped delirious, for morn.

It slipped and slipped,
As one that drunken stepped;
Its white foot tripped,
Then dropped from sight.

Ah, brig, good-night
To crew and you;
The ocean's heart too smooth, too blue,
To break for you.”

“There is a word
Which bears a sword
Can pierce an armed man.
It hurls its barbed syllables,—
At once is mute again.
But where it fell
The saved will tell
On patriotic day,
Some epauletted brother
Gave his breath away.Wherever runs the breathless sun,
Wherever roams the day,
There is its noiseless onset,
There is its victory!
Behold the keenest marksman!
The most accomplished shot!
Time’s sublimest target
Is a soul “forgot”!”

“Our journey had advanced;
Our feet were almost come
To that odd fork in Being's road,
Eternity by term.

Our pace took sudden awe,
Our feet reluctant led.
Before were cities, but between,
The forest of the dead.

Retreat was out of hope,—
Behind, a sealed route,
Eternity's white flag before,
And God at every gate.”
