- Title
EPISTOLARY MYTHOLOGIES: THE SYLVIA PLATH / TED HUGHES MARRIAGE IN THE AMERICAN WRITER'S CORRESPONDENCE.
- Authors
GLĂVAN, GABRIELA
- Abstract
The public fascination with Sylvia Plath's marriage to Ted Hughes is an integral part of the American writer's legacy, one that is constantly reinterpreted by new generations of critics. The publication, in 2018, of Sylvia Plath's previously unknown correspondence revealed new aspects of one of her most influential relationships - her marriage to English poet Ted Hughes. My aim is to explore the articulation of this biographical element as an essential part of the mythology surrounding her life and work.
