Bradstreet & Taylor/Puritan Poetry
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
A 4 page essay that examines the early American poetry of Anne Bradstreet and Edward Taylor. The writer argues that each poet recorded their reactions to colonial life in their verse, leaving a poetic legacy that offers a glimpse of what life was like in a seventeenth century early American colony. The picture of colonial life that emerges from their poetry is one that was extraordinarily hard, but also one in which colonials relied on their deep religious faith in order to face the numerous challenges of life in the New World. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
