Gray (School of English and Media Studies, Massey U., New Zealand) revisits the works of a number of obscure Victorian women religious poets in order to demonstrate the significant contribution they made to Christian discourse, lyric tradition, and contemporary views of womanhood. She is most concerned with the ways these women sought to relate to the masculinized Victorian God and to the ways they articulated the feminized I in relation to God. She offers chapters addressing the strategies adopted by the poets in the textual and hermeneutic negotiations with the Bible, the poets' deployments of female biblical characters, their production of a feminized I that could participate in direct relationship to God, and strategies of form and style in terms of arrogating power and making meaning.
