Specificatii
In this first substantial study of Emily Dickinson's devotion to
flowers and gardening, Judith Farr seeks to join both poet and
gardener in one creative personality. She casts new light on
Dickinson's temperament, her aesthetic sensibility, and her vision
of the relationship between art and nature, revealing that the
successful gardener's intimate understanding of horticulture helped
shape the poet's choice of metaphors for every experience: love and
hate, wickedness and virtue, death and immortality.Gardening, Farr
demonstrates, was Dickinson's other vocation, more public than the
making of poems but analogous and closely related to it. Over a
third of Dickinson's poems and nearly half of her letters allude
with passionate intensity to her favorite wildflowers, to
traditional blooms like the daisy or gentian, and to the exotic
gardenias and jasmines of her conservatory. Each flower was
assigned specific connotations by the nineteenth century floral
dictionaries she knew; thus, Dickinson's association of various
flowers with friends, family, and lovers, like the tropes and
scenarios presented in her poems, establishes her participation in
the literary and painterly culture of her day. A chapter, Gardening
with Emily Dickinson by Louise Carter, cites family letters and
memoirs to conjecture the kinds of flowers contained in the poet's
indoor and outdoor gardens. Carter hypothesizes Dickinson's methods
of gardening, explaining how one might grow her flowers
today.Beautifully illustrated and written with verve, The Gardens
of Emily Dickinson will provide pleasure and insight to a wide
audience of scholars, admirers of Dickinson's poetry, and garden
lovers everywhere.
