Love's Witness: Five Centuries of Love Poetry by WomenJill Hollis Robinson, 1993 - 334 pagine The work of women poets is often overlooked in anthologies, and collections of love poetry are no exception. This collection shows that on the subject of romantic and sexual love women can be just as eloquent as men - sometimes on the same themes, but often voicing different opinions and emotions - men rarely if ever wax lyrical on the subject of their fragility for example. |
