Dla mnie niedościgłym mistrzem tłumaczenia Emily Dickinson pozostaje nieodżałowany Stanisław Barańczak. Niestety te tłumaczenia nie są tak dobre. Wszystko zbyt gęsto (w sensie dosłownym) zagospodarowane słowami, często zbyt długimi. U tej poetki ma to moim zdaniem duże znaczenie. Brak przestrzeni. ...
Found this on my shelf one daySo I thought I'd give it a look,I remember wanting to try something newWhen I bought this slim book.Though I enjoy a poetic turn of phraseAs much as the next person,I'm not much of a poetry readerBut at least I can say I've read Dickinson.
The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson contains a sizeable sample of the total works of the reclusive poet, who only came to prominence after her death. Containing 593 poems separated into five different themes, roughly a third of her overall productivity, this collection gives the reader a wonderf...
https://msarki.tumblr.com/post/151185260698/poetry-for-kids-emily-dickinson-by-susan-snivelyWonderful to imagine a young child being introduced to poetry by Emily Dickinson herself, or someone almost like her. Emily’s words (or most of them) do sound right but in this illustrated collection that his...
I read Emily Dickinson in translation back at school and remember thinking her poetry was plain.Reading her now, I realise that the plain one was me.This, to me, is poetry in its purest and therefore most powerful form. It is melody, it is painting, it is wisdom. It floats high above and it goes dee...
Every now and again I read something that is critically acclaimed and I am left absolutely cold by it. I know a lot of people love Dickinson and I know that she was a large influence on Plath who's poetry I really enjoy, but this did nothing for me. Dickinson was a hermit, but why she was so reluc...
The fourth, and final, Dover poetry anthology I am reviewing. As with the others, it is an easily portable, inexpensive book. Includes work by 58 poets. Ten were born before 1600, another six in the 17th century, twelve in the 18th century, and two in the 20th century. So 28 were born in the 19th c...
I'm slightly more interested in Emily Dickinson the person than Emily Dickinson the poet, if it's even possible to separate the two. Still, Dickinson was the first poet (after Shel Silverstein) that I distinctly *liked* and sought more of. I haven't sat down to read a volume of her work since I was ...
Cross-posted on Soapboxing This is going to be a ramble. It's my Grandma Dory's 97th birthday. She died less than a half a year ago, and I'm still raw with loss on days like today. On other days, I don't always remember, which makes the occasional rawness all that more difficult. For a smart, well...
