One of the first to concentrate exclusively on early modern women's poetry, the full-length critical study to applies post-Lacanian French psychoanalytic theory to the genre. The strength of this study is that it merges analysis of socio-political constructions affecting early modern women poets writing in England with the psychoanalytic insights, specific to women as subjects, of post-Lacanian theorists Luce Irigaray, Helen Cixous, Julia Kristeva, and Rosi Braidotti."--Provided by publisher Subject Cary, Elizabeth, Lady, 1585 or 1586-1639 -- Criticism and interpretation Whitney, Isabella -- Criticism and interpretation Lanyer, Aemilia -- Criticism and interpretation SUBJECT Cary, Elizabeth, Lady, 1585 or 1586-1639 fast Lanyer, Aemilia fast Whitney, Isabella fast Subject English poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700 -- History and criticism Women and literature -- England -- History -- 16th century Women and literature -- England -- History -- 17th century English poetry -- Women authors -- History and criticism Subjectivity in literature.
