| Sumario: | The article presents a critique of American Puritan poet Anne Bradstreet, claiming that several studies of her poetry revealed how the discursive formation of a subject and its agency, which complicates Bradstreet's relation to her poetic precursors, such as Guillaume du Bartas and Sir Philip Sidney. It addresses what Bradstreet's early elegies showed, what her elegy identifying Sidney signified, and Bradstreet's exploration of conventions of an epitaph. |
