Forms of Engagement: Women, Poetry and Culture 1640-1680

By Elizabeth Scott-Baumann

What does it mean for a woman to write an elegy, ode, epic, or blazon in the seventeenth century? How does their reading affect women's use of particular poetic forms and what can the physical appearance of a poem, in print and manuscript, reveal about how that poem in turn was read?
