Pauline Johnson's poetics acts. 520 $a "In this book, Elissa Zellinger analyzes both political philosophy and poetic theory in order to chronicle the consolidation of the modern lyric and the liberal subject across the long nineteenth century. In the nineteenth-century United States, both liberalism and lyric sought self-definition by practicing techniques of exclusion. Liberalism was a political philosophy whose supposed universals were limited to white men and created by omitting women, the enslaved, and Native peoples. The conventions of poetic reception only redoubled the sense that liberal selfhood defined its boundaries by refusing raced and gendered others. Yet Zellinger argues that it is precisely the poetics of the excluded that offer insights into the dynamic processes that came to form the modern liberal and lyric subjects"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 19th century $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Lyric poetry $y 19th century $x Women authors. 650 0 $a Liberalism $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Politics and literature $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022606.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20211005013429.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=570BCE080C7C11EC8E70AEE442ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
