Emily Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts, on December 10, 1830. She only stayed at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary in South Hadley for a year. Dickinson's poetry was significantly inspired by seventeenth-century English Metaphysical writers, as well as her study of the Book of Revelation and her upbringing in a Puritan New England town, which emphasised a Calvinist, orthodox, and conservative attitude to Christianity. Dickinson's family uncovered forty handbound volumes with approximately 1,800 poems, or "fascicles" as they are frequently known, after her death. Dickinson put these booklets together by folding and stitching five or six sheets of stationery paper and duplicating what appear
