Inspired by the bluestocking salon of elizabeth Carter and Elizabeth Montagu and by the Evangelical movements, poets such as Anna Barbauld and Hannah More, became respected and successful writers. They, in turn, often acted as patrons for aspiring working-classwomen poets like Anne Yearsley, "the poetical milkwoman of Bristol." This collection, including material never before published, offers an insight into the changing face of Romantic women's poetry and represent an invaluable source for the modern reader. |
