To All vertuous Ladies in Generall: Voicing Female Spirituality in the Poems of Aemilia Lanyer (1569-1645)

Original language description

The present article deals with the poetry of Aemilia Lanyer (1569-1645), arguably the first professional English woman poet. It focuses on Lanyer's "feminist spirituality", i.e. her delineation of women's spiritual genius based on their specific dispositions. The article discusses Lanyer's strategy in reassessing the role of women in Christianity and the fields in which the female spiritual "organism" can develop without the necessarily polemical aspects of sexual differences. The article argues that Lanyer uses the genre of devotional poetry (and spirituality) to claim a space of autonomy for women that was unthinkable in other fields.
