Jonathan Morse is the department’s specialist in the poetry
of Emily Dickinson, but he has also written about how history goes
to language to take on meaning, why irony doesn’t work on
the Internet, why people fantasize about the return of the zeppelin,
and why T.S. Eliot wrote the word “Jew” with a small
j. To see some of his photographs, click on the portrait.
