1884 Feminism 1ed Fair Words about Fair Woman Beauty Poetry Romance Literature
“Fair Words About Fair Woman” compiled by Oliver Bell Bunce, tells of a group of friends who form a weekly reading club to explore and celebrate the depiction of women in poetry, led primarily by the character Mr. Bluff, known as Bachelor Bluff, and Herbert, the designated reader of the group. Spanning across various poetic genres, the club members bring forth poems that exalt, glorify, and bring to life the beauty, virtues, and strengths of women, from historical figures to romantic ideals. The discussion, ignited during a small social gathering, fosters an environment where the members reflect on the poetic representation of women, seeking to counterbalance the negativity and satirical comments often thrown at women with pieces that showcase them in a positive light.
Illustrated with 9 engraved plates, this work invites the reader into a warm, respectful, and affectionate exploration of women through the lens of literature, aiming to create a poetic bouquet that underlines the splendor and diversity of womanhood in poetic literature.
