Women Poets of the English Civil War (Paperback)

This anthology brings together extensive selections of poetry by
the five most prolific and prominent women poets of the English
Civil War period: Anne Bradstreet, Hester Pulter, Margaret
Cavendish, Katherine Philips and Lucy Hutchinson. It presents these
poems in modern-spelling, clear-text versions for classroom use,
and for ready comparison to mainstream editions of male poets'
work. The anthology reveals the diversity of women's poetry in the
mid-seventeenth century, across political affiliations and forms of
publication. Notes on the poems and an introduction explain the
contexts of Civil War, religious conflict, and scientific and
literary development. The anthology enables a more comprehensive
understanding of seventeenth-century women's poetic culture, both
in its own right and in relation to prominent male poets such as
Marvell, Milton and Dryden. -- .
