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.

Introduction: Everywhere and Nowhere; 1 Anthology Publication and the Woman Poet; 2 The Sick Preface; 3 Ballad Knowledge and the Poetics of Repetition; 4 Collaborative Composition and Sororal Poetics; Afterword: The Problem of Emily Dickinson
