Poems by Emily Dickinson, Three Series, Complete
First published 1896 · English · 250 pages
- Poetry

This 1896 volume collects the three series of poems that were published after Dickinson's death, in 1890, 1891 and 1896. Edited chiefly by Mabel Loomis Todd and Thomas Wentworth Higginson, it brings together hundreds of short lyrics on nature, love, death, faith and the inner life. Though later scholars restored her original punctuation and wording, this set is the form in which her poetry first reached the world.
