Emily Dickson

Emily Dickson

Elizabeth Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830 in the quiet community of Amherst, Massachusetts, the second daughter of Edward and Emily Norcross Dickinson. Emily, Austin (her older brother) and her younger sister Lavinia.  They were nurtured in a quiet,
 reserved family headed by their authoritative father Edward. Throughout Emily¡¯s life, her mother was not "emotionally
 accessible," the absence of which might have caused some of Emily¡¯s eccentricity. Being rooted in the puritanical Massachusetts
 of the 1800¡¯s, the Dickinson children were raised in the Christian tradition, and they were expected to take up their father¡¯s
 religious beliefs and values without argument. Later in life, Emily would come to challenge these conventional religious viewpoints
 of her father and the church, and the challenges she met with would later contribute to the strength of her poetry.

The Dickinson family was prominent in Amherst. In fact, Emily¡¯s grandfather, Samuel Fowler Dickinson, was one of the founders

 positions on the General Court of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts State Senate, and the United States House of
 Representatives. Unlike her father, Emily did not enjoy
