QUICK LIT BITE OF THE DAY
Anne Bradstreet-was the first female poet to be published from either puritan America or England.
As a younger poet Bradstreet wrote five quaternions, epic poems of four parts each that explore the diverse yet complementary natures of their subject. Much of Bradstreet's poetry is based on observation of the world around her, focusing heavily on domestic and religious themes.
Despite the traditional attitude toward women of the time, she clearly valued knowledge and intellect; she was a free thinker and some consider her an early feminist.
Some of her works include: "The Flesh and the Spirit", "To Her Father with Some Verses", and "Contemplations."
