Works
Although Emily Dickinson is one of the greatest of American poets, she was all but unpublished until four years after her death, and her poems did not find a reliable editor until Thomas H. Johnson, whose Poems of Emily Dickinson was published in 1955. The handiest edition of the poems is probably Johnson's one-volume Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson. Little. Brown, 1960.
The Letters of Emily Dickinson. Edited by Thomas H. Johnson and Theodora Ward. Three Volumes. Harvard, 1958. Selected Letters was edited by Thomas H. Johnson. Harvard, 1971.
