title = "Shakespeare",
abstract = "This essay demonstrates that for American writers such as Emily Dickinson Shakespeare was not an oppressive or stifling British force, but an enabling, inspiring, and almost nurturing one; and that for women writers, in particular, his achievement of literary immortality while circumventing personal revelation was a feat they sought to replicate. Shakespeare, this essay argues, was Dickinson{\textquoteright}s supreme literary model, and she absorbed his works into her life and writings, yet she also carefully differentiated her words from his to assert her identity as a fellow writer.",
