Item description from seller

(1987). First edition. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Octavo. 156 pages; Notes, Selected Bibliography and an Index. Although the woman poet was defined by the "aesthetic of limitation" or the strict idea of what a woman poet could permit herself, Louise Bogan's work used the restrictions of the male tradition in poetry and literature and paradoxically created a female idiom while still absorbed in modernism's formal lessons. ".the fact that she was a woman and that she defended formal, lyric poetry in an age of expansive experimentation made evaluation of her work, until quite recently, somewhat condescending."--Dictionary of Literary Biography.
