Synopsis:
In this first full length study of Mary Wroth's Pamphilia to Amphilanthus, the first sonnet sequence written and published by an English woman, Ilona Bell offers new discoveries that show Wroth to be a boldly original lyric poet. Bell's comparative analysis of the handwritten private manuscript and the printed text traces parallels to the author's life, and simultaneously discloses Wroth's innovative reinterpretation and reconfiguration of male lyric tradition.
