Emily Dickinson (1830–86) published 10 poems in her lifetime, although they were all published anonymously. Scholars believe that they were also published without her consent or knowledge. Seven of her poems appeared in the Springfield Republican, a Massachusetts newspaper published and edited by Samuel Bowles. They included “Safe in their Alabaster Chambers” (to which Bowles assigned the title “The Sleeping”) in 1862.
