- Authors
MULLEN, MARY
- Abstract
The article offers poetry criticism of the poem “Aurora Leigh” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. It explores how the literary and social forms as well as the aesthetic and narrative in the poem contribute to debates about the politics of timeliness. The author discusses the writing of other critics and schools of criticism including American New Criticism and feminist criticism, the use of allusions and temporalities and the poem's resistance to a linear, historical time.
