For the posthumous volumes of Dickinson's work that Mabel Loomis Todd edited, Fanny provided transcripts of poems and letters that she and her sister had received, but because Fanny insisted on keeping the originals of Dickinson's work as well as excising letters that she believed were too personal to be published, Todd found the cousin's involvement trying.The sisters remained active in the Concord community until their respective deaths: Frances on February 20, 1896, and Louisa on April 14, 1919. .pum-theme-10128 .pum-container, .pum-theme-hello-box .pum-container { You can always change this later in your Account settings. font: 400 40px Lustria; font-size: 33px; opacity: 1; float: left; .single-post article.post .entry-header .entry-thumbnail .wp-post-image { border: 0 !important; Are you sure that you want to delete this photo? body.category #page-title { Learn more about managing a memorial . .cool-timeline-wrapper .timeline-main-title { a.sow-social-media-button:hover { background: #eee; } } } #page-wrapper .special-notice { display: inline-block; padding-bottom: 0 !important; It also includes documents and compositions related to Emily Norcross Dickinson's education, church attendance, and death.
