The Posthumous Discovery of Dickinson's Poems. When Emily Dickinson died in 1886, she was unknown as a poet outside of a small circle of family and friends. Dickinsonâs poetic legacy consisted of almost 1800 poems, and no instructions about what to do with them.
Not surprisingly, when Loomis Todd produced The Letters of Emily Dickinson (1894), Dickinson's primary correspondent of several decades is not even mentioned, nor are any of the hundreds of letters to her reproduced, though Susan's sister Martha, to whom Emily sent a handful of letters, is.
