Autorenporträt
Felicia Hemans, née Felicia Dorothea Browne (1793–1835), remains an emblematic figure in the landscape of early 19th-century English poetry, celebrated for her emotive lyrical compositions and her exploration of feminine subjectivity in a patriarchal literary tradition. Born in Liverpool, Mrs. Hemans carved out a formidable reputation as a poet, with her work often speaking to the roles and experiences of women within society, domestic affections, and national identity. Her verse echoed the Romantic era's ardor while simultaneously forging a distinct voice marked by piety and sentimentality. Significant volumes such as 'The Poems of Felicia Hemans' collate her extensive canon, including notable pieces like 'The Homes of England', 'Casabianca', and 'The Graves of a Household.' Her poetry was ubiquitous in the education of young women of her time, and she was held in high regard by her contemporaries, even earning the adoration of Wordsworth. Scholars have often framed her work within the context of 19th-century didacticism, and Hemans's contributions have been subject to renewed academic interest, leading to a reevaluation of her position within the canon of English literature. Her legacy endures, compelling readers to consider the ways in which her poetry interweaves personal sentiment with broader cultural and historical themes.
