As I specified in class on Monday, in class tomorrow (Wednesday) we'll be discussing Sarah Fyge Egerton's "The Liberty" (Blackwell anthology p. 11 - 12) and Mary Leapor's "Man the Monarch." Both of these poems speak to a theme we discussed with relation to the two Anne Finch poems, "Introduction" and "The Apology": the woman poet's sense of constraint or limitation stemming from her gender.
The question for you to consider: what differences do you see between (a) the way these three poets depict that sense of constraint and (b) the specific sources of constraint or limitation that they identify?
Deadline: Wednesday (4/22), noon.
