Abstract Details

2018, Bachelor of Arts (BA), Ohio University, English.
The goal of this collection is to complicate the dialogues of womanhood. The collection of poems combines a poetic perspective of womanhood with that of biblical woman, accompanied by a critical introduction that looks at the way contemporary writing and study categorizes narratives in the voice of the feminine with the aim of demystifing the statue of female “other.” This collection creates the female voice as the “I” instead of the Other. By initiating each major theme with a poem told from the voice of a woman from the origins of Christian womanhood, the collection lends legitimacy and belonging to the contemporary female voice. This collection expands through poetry to unfold a series of complicated and unanswerable questions, all of them asking, what does it mean to be a woman?
