The second day of the conference was finished with a reception at
the surprisingly large Blackwell bookshop off Broad Street, sponsored by JHUP. With a background of book-lined shelves, and wine in hand, conference attendees discussed the recent published scholarship of Dickinson, as well as discovered new works recently made available. For me, the most impressive part of the evening may have been seeing the number of accomplished Dickinson authors
all
collectively gathered together in the same literary space, discussing their specific Dickinson interests and future works in progress. The collection of recent Dickinson scholarship was also something to be impressed by, with Dickinson books stacked upon each other, and overwhelming their table display. It was a fun evening reception, and a great way to celebrate the still blossoming scholarship of Emily Dickinson's works.
