The Author To Her Book
<p>InAnne Bradstreet’s poem “The Author to her Book”, Bradstreet uses her role as an advocate for women’s rights as she touches on a variety of social issues in relation to female rights and breaking the patriarchy’s oppressive limits for women in the 1600's. She touches on these issues through the lens of a Puritan female poet, in fact, the first New World poet, who had recently beared a child: her book of poetry <em>The Tenth Muse, Lately Sprung Up in America</em>. “The Author to her Book” is a poem that examines women’s lack of rights throughout this era and the radical actions that Bradstreet makes in publishing <em>The Tenth Muse</em> in contrast with her humble response to its publication.</p>
