In Plain Sight: Nineteenth-Century American Women's Poetry and the Problem of Li

Description: In Plain Sight by Alexandra Socarides Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Studies why the poetry of nineteenth-century American women has all but disappeared from literary history, with the exception of the works of Emily Dickinson. Exploring works by little-known poets, it illustrates that the means by which the poetry came to be written and read contributed to and determined its eventual erasure. Publisher Description In Plain Sight explores how the poetry of nineteenth-century American women that was once so visible within American culture could have, with the exception of that by Emily Dickinson, so thoroughly disappeared from literary history. By investigating erasure not merely as something that was done to these women but as the result of the conventions that once made the circulation of their poetry possible in the first place, this volume offers the firstbook-length analysis of the conventions of nineteenth-century American womens poetry. While each of the chapters focuses on a specific convention, taken together they tell the complicated story of nineteenth-centuryAmerican womens poetry, tracing the spaces within literary culture where it lived and thrived, the spaces from which it was always in the process of vanishing. By reclaiming these conventions as a constitutive part of nineteenth-century American womens poetry, this book asks readers to take seriously the work these women produced and the role their work might play in remapping American literary history.
