Revised List of Female Poets of the First World War - 28th November 2013


FEMALE POETS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR

Here is the latest list – November 2013.  I find new poets and interesting information almost every day.  If you know of any poets I have left out, please get in touch.  I am particularly keen to find poets from Luxembourg, Thailand and from African countries but all poets of that era are welcome and I would like to enlist your help in finding them.


Someone asked if I was only including 'professional' poets.  Definitely not - as far as I am concerned you do not have to be a 'published' poet to write poetry.   Do have a look at what Dr. Olson said in his review of George Bruce's anthology which I put on the weblog www.femalewarpoets.blogspot.co.uk earlier this year.   I agree with Bruce about poetry - this was not always the case but the past year has led to amazing discoveries and helped me to change my mind. 

In his WW1 poetry anthology “The Sweet Red Wine of Youth” Nicholas Murray mentions that he has not included women because “they did not fight”. But many of them did and at least two of those women soldiers were poets – they are on this list but I have not yet been able to find any biographical details, photographs or poems by them.

As my research has progressed, it has become very clear that there were far more women who wrote poetry during the 1914 - 1918 period than the few mentioned in many of the anthologies compiled so far.   I feel strongly that their voices deserve to be heard.
