The workers speak

1845年，诗人伊丽莎白·巴雷特布朗宁写道："我到处寻找祖母，却一个也没看到。"十八世纪工人阶级女诗人两百年来一直为学者所忽视。我的目标是重新连接这些被遗忘的诗人与他们的“孙女”，无论是通过对他们的诗歌产生原创的批评奖学金，并通过驱动当代作家的创造性参与与他们。我将写一篇期刊文章，由Bobker博士指导，他在18世纪社会空间诗学方面的专业知识与我的博士研究相吻合。此外，我的项目将通过一系列的影响活动，促进部门的跨学科研究文化。这些可能包括：关于诗人的博客文章，Little和Taylor，为新的写作超越房间项目;我自己的诗歌的阅读，为"spokenweb"项目;在扩展诗学中心举办一个介绍性研讨会，向鲜为人知的诗人介绍，并协助组织加拿大十八世纪研究学会会议2023。

In 1845, the poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning wrote, 'I look everywhere for grandmothers and see none'. Working-class women poets of the eighteenth-century have been ignored by scholars for 200 years. I aim to reconnect these forgotten poets with their 'granddaughters', both by producing original critical scholarship on their poems and by driving contemporary writers' creative engagement with them. I will be writing a journal article, supervised by Dr Bobker, whose expertise in the eighteenth-century poetics of social space corresponds with my doctoral research. Also, my project will contribute to the department's interdisciplinary research culture through a series of impact activities. These are likely to include: a blog post on the poets, Little and Taylor, for the new Writing Beyond the Room project; a reading of my own poetry, for the 'SpokenWeb' project; hosting an introductory seminar to little-known poets at the Centre for Expanded Poetics, and assisting with the organisation of the Canadian Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies conference 2023.
