Lesbian Poetry Historical Poetry Contemporary Poetry Resources for Poets and Readers Lesbian Poetry FAQ ... Historical : Charlotte Mew Charlotte Mew Charlotte Mew, born in London, was one of the last poets of the Victorian era. While she did not write poetry with overt lesbian themes, preferring to keep the speaker ambigious or male, she clearly loved and preferred women. She never married and assumed a persona traditionally seen as masculine, wearing tailored men's clothing, and keeping her hair short. She traveled alone, used strong language, and smoked. While her refusal to bend to society's role for women would seem to bode well, her life was full of misfortune, and she never seemed to connect with a lesbian community of her time, leaving her feeling isolated and disappointed. In family life, tragedy seemed almost to stalk Charlotte. She was one of seven children and the oldest to survive. Three brothers died in childhood, a brother and sister were committed to asylums in their twenties, and by 1898, after her father's death, only her mother and one sister remained. Even given this tragic life, however, Charlotte managed to produce respected poetry. Her literary career came slowlywhile she published a story in

16. Charlotte Mew Penelope Fitzgerald s laudable biography charlotte mew and Her Friends attempted to revive a substantial interest in her. Yet a significant lack of response http://www.spondee.net/CharlotteMew/

Charlotte Mew "a cameo cut in steel" Charlotte Mary Mew, esteemed by Siegfried Sassoon, and Ezra Pound was born in London on November 15, 1869. She took her own life on March 24, 1928. Haunted by unrequited passion and tormented by fears of madness she, nevertheless, produced poems of unique beauty and passion. Although her life was lived for the most part in poverty and despair she was still recognized by Vita Sackville West as a poetess of distinction. Virginia Woolf called her the greatest living poetess, and Marianne Moore, a quarter of a century after her death, considered her work 'above praise.' Thomas Hardy accorded her extraordinary praise, and others believed she approached poetic genius. Today she has been all but forgotten. Penelope Fitzgerald's laudable biography Charlotte Mew and Her Friends attempted to revive a substantial interest in her. Yet a significant lack of response seems to be the case. Material on Mew is sparse indeed. A search of Internet has resulted in a few connections. So this homepage in part will attempt to explain Charlotte Mew, tell of her tragic life, and present some of her lovely and haunting work. The author of this homepage welcomes any comment or help on bringing Charlotte Mary Mew the recognition she deserves.
