| Sommario/riassunto: | Poetic Sisters explores the personal and literary connections among five eighteenth-century women poets, who wrote on a wide variety of topics from serious religious poems to light-hearted verses on shopping. Anchored in the work of Anne Finch, author of "A Nocturnal Reverie," this book explores a female literary network and emphasizes the range and extent of these writers' poetic achievement and its resonance for the twenty-first century reader. |
