About this title

Synopsis:

This book calls for a new approach to poetry criticism. Eighteen brilliant essays offer challenging new theoretical approaches by examining the work of twentieth-century women poets. Poets covered include the most famous--Sylvia Plath, Elizabeth Bishop, Jackie Kay, Liz Lochhead, Grace Nichols, Eavan Boland--and the more neglected such as Una Marson, Jean Binta Breeze, Lorine Niedecker and Denise Riley. The essays are grouped into six sections: women poets and modernism; the politics of place; (post)colonial contexts; the body; radical poetics; and reconfigurations; and within these areas, war poetry, Caribbean, Irish and Scottish women's poetry, birth poetry and science poetry are also discussed.

About the Author:

Vicki Bertram teaches at Nottingham Trent University. She is the organizer of the international conference Kicking Daffodils: Women and Poetry and is a member of the editorial collective for the Feminist Review. She is the editor of Kicking Daffodils: Essays on Twentieth Century Women Poets.
