Her Elegiac Sonnets sparked the sonnet revival in English Romanticism; The Emigrants initiated its passion for lengthy meditative introspection; and Beachy Head lent its poetic engagement with nature a uniquely telling immediacy. Smith was a woman  Wordsworth remarked a quarter century after her death  \"to whom English verse is under greater obligations than are likely to be either acknowledged or remembered.\" True to his prediction  Smiths poetry has virtually dropped from sight and thus from cultural consciousness. This  the first edition of Smiths collected poems  will restore to all students of English poetry a distinctive  compelling voice. Likewise  the recovery of Smith to her rightful place among the Romantic poets must spur the reassessment of the place of women writers within that culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986157269045,"sku":"ByrdShop_019508358X","price":56.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195083583.jpg?v=1770889622","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-poems-of-charlotte-smith-women-writers-in-english-13501850","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
