John Donne's Articulations of the Feminine by H L Meakin

John Donne's Articulations of the Feminine by H L Meakin

This book examines some of Donne's figurations of the feminine in his lesser known poetry and prose, allowing a deeper appreciation of his contribution to Renaissance literature. Using the criticism of feminist philosopher Luce Irigaray, Meakin shows how Donne's explorations of love, eroticism, friendship and the divine are still relevant today.

I want to applaud John Donne.. for bringing feminist theory to bear on the study of Donne. Meakin is an informed and careful writer who is also trying something quite different... Fresh ideas about Donne and his young male friends and about Donne and Elizabeth Drury. * Journal of English and Germanic Philology *

H.L. Meakin received her doctorate from the University of Oxford and is the author of John Donne's Articulations of the Feminine. She now teaches English literature at the University of South Florida.
