About this product

Product Information

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.

'Sarah Ross and Elizabeth Scott-Baumann's readable, beautifully presented, and affordable new anthology, Women Writers of the English Civil War , makes it easier than ever before to appreciate the extent to which women poets participated in )and fundamentally contributed to) early modern experiments in poetic form.'Dianne Mitchell, Renaissance Studies, 'Hile's book is an engaging and carefully researched study, which not only furthers our understanding of verse satires of the late-sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, but also invites scholars to reassess the importance of indirect satire in the trajectory of Spenser's works and the influence it had on emerging writers. By prompting us to read Spenser's satirical work alongside his epec, pastoral, and lyrical poetry, Hile expands our sense of him as "the poets's poet"' Stuart Hart, The Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol 49, Issue 1, Spring 2018, 'Sarah Ross and Elizabeth Scott-Baumann's readable, beautifully presented, and affordable new anthology, Women Writers of the English Civil War, makes it easier than ever before to appreciate the extent to which women poets participated in )and fundamentally contributed to) early modern experiments in poetic form.'
