The Routledge Anthology of Cross-Gendered Verse is an entertaining journey through six centuries of poets writing in the voice of the opposite sex. Whether concerned with the playful or the tragic, the mundane or the mystical, each poem reveals a new depth in this unique and engaging anthology.
Poems both canonical and less traditional, from early modern England to present-day Africa, are in this remarkable collection. In a lively introduction and conclusion the editors explore the historical, cultural and theoretical context of the poems and of cross-gendered writing. They also provide an extensive bibliography of further reading.
Poetry lovers will delight in The Routledge Anthology of Cross-Gendered Verse. It will also be a valuable contribution to issues of gender, masks and voices in fields such as literary, gender and performance studies and creative writing.
