Research Abstract |
I have found that Emily Dickinson learned of Japan and even of the America's foreign policy to pry Japan out of seclusion in the 1850s through newspapers and directly through her father, who was a Congressman during Commodore Perry's expedition to Japan. I published a paper on it in the book The World of Emily Dickinson's Poetry. Since it took me so much time to collect documents in the 1850s, the researches on her relationship with Clark and Neesima in the 1860s and 1870s were halfway done.
