Clark Griffith seeks to demonstrate that, if we come to terms with her true intellectual position, we find that Emily Dickinson is a tragic poet. He studies her special connection with the Age of Emerson, her dependence upon irony, her change in attitude from detachment to tragic involvement.
Originally published in 1964.
