An enthusiast of the traveling circus, a performer of popular musical numbers on her piano, a collector of sheet music of popular songs, and a reader of current fiction, Emily Dickinson participated in the popular entertainments of her time. Although seen as reclusive and detached from the world by some scholars and readers, Dickinson had access to public discussions regarding the many perplexing, troubled, and turbulent issues that shaped life in the nineteenth century through her engagement with popular culture.
