The Muses of Resistance: Laboring-Class Women's Poetry in Britain, 1739–1796
Donna Landry
In this challenging 1990 study, Donna Landry shows how an understanding of the remarkable but neglected laboring-class women poets in the eighteenth century provokes a reassessment of our ideas concerning the literature of the period. The innovative poetic achievements of these plebeian women writers constitute an exciting literary discovery.
