Emily Dickinson, born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, is an acclaimed American poet known for her unique style and profound exploration of themes like death, immortality, and nature. Despite writing over 1,800 poems, only seven were published during her lifetime. Her work gained recognition posthumously, earning her the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1955. Dickinson lived a private life, rarely venturing beyond her home, and her poems were often found hidden in books or drawers. While her sister destroyed many of her poems after her death, her work has since become celebrated for its originality and emotional depth, solidifying her status as one of the most influential poets in American history.
