Book Synopsis Desire and Gender in the Sonnet Tradition by : N. Distiller
Book excerpt: This new study explores the poetic tradition of the love sonnet sequence in English as written by women from 1621-1931. It connects this tradition to ways of speaking desire in public in operation today, and to the development of theories of subjectivity in Western culture.
