From the publisher

These thirteen original essays are the first to focus exclusively on the work, reception, and cultural significance of the 19th century British poet who explored the role of women in family and society. They are a substantial contribution to our understanding of this prominent and controversial poet and to current debates about romanticism, feminism, canon formation, and the relations between gender, culture, and poetry.

First line

Felicia Hemans's poems of mourning have largely been read as sentimental, ambiguously patriotic attempts to uphold familial and national honor.
