In performing the Poetry of Woman, the mythic Poetess has long staked her claims as a creature of "separate spheres"-one exempt from emerging readings of nineteenth-century women's political poetics. Turning such assumptions on their heads, Tricia Lootens models a nineteenth-century domestic or private sphere whose imaginary, apolitical heart is also the heart of nation and empire, and, as revisionist histories increasingly attest, is traumatized and haunted by histories of slavery. Setting aside late Victorian attempts to forget the unfulfilled, sentimental promises of early antislavery victories, The Political Poetess restores Poetess performances like Julia Ward Howe's "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and Emma Lazarus's "The New Colossus" to view-and with them, the vitality of the Black Poetess within African-American public life.Crossing boundaries of nation, period, and discipline to "connect the dots" of Poetess performance, Lootens demonstrates how new histories and ways of reading position poetic texts by Felicia Dorothea Hemans, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Dinah Mulock Craik, George Eliot, and Frances E. W. Harper as convergence points for larger engagements ranging from Germaine de Staël to G.W.F. Hegel, Virginia Woolf, Elizabeth Bishop, Alice Walker, and beyond. 606 $aEnglish poetry$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish poetry$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFeminism and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Subjects & Themes / Women $2bisacsh 610 $aA Curse for a Nation. 610 $aAbolition time. 610 $aAlice Walker. 610 $aAntigone. 610 $aBlack Poetess. 610 $aCasabianca. 610 $aCheryl Walker. 610 $aDinah Mulock Craik. 610 $aElizabeth Barrett Browning. 610 $aElizabeth Bishop. 610 $aElizabeth V.
