Through these techniques, the poets assailed conventional ideas that placed the natural world in a decidedly inferior position, supposedly suitable for exploitation and degradation. This study focuses primarily on the "eco" aspect of ecofeminism, examining in depth the poetic responses to Victorian estimations of the natural world and its marginalization. Grappling with critical ecofeminist matters, these poets--Augusta Webster, Mathilde Blind, Michael Field, Alice Meynell, Constance Naden, and L.S. Bevington--heightened awareness of and dispelled misconceptions about nature"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: Nascent Ecofeminism -- Augusta Webster: Interrogating the Nature/Women Link -- Mathilde Blind: Contesting Domination -- Michael Field: Eroticizing Agency -- Alice Meynell: Unsettling the Nature/Culture Dichotomy -- Constance Naden: Embodying Spirituality, Making Matter Matter -- L.S.
