Domhnall Mitchell – Measures of Possibility. Emily Dickinson’s Manuscripts

In „Measures of Possibility”, Domhnall Mitchell sets out to test the hypothesis of Dickinson’s textual radicalism, and its consequences […] by looking closely at features such as spacing, the physical direction of the writing, and letter-shapes in handwritten lyric and epistolary texts. Through systematic contextualization and cross-referncing, Mitchell provides the reader with a critical apparatus by which to measure the extent to which contemporary approaches to Dickinson’s autograph procedures can reasonably be formulated as corresponding to the poet’s own purposes.   źródło opisu: Od wydawcy
