The Image of Woman in Amy Lowell’s Poetry

چکیده

Amy Lawrence Lowell (1874–1925) is one of the most distinguished poets and a prominent member of the Imagist School. She is a woman poet who participated in the twentieth-century American Imagist movement. The perception of women’s suffering in contemporary culture has been the primary subject of the modern century.

       The main subject of this paper is the analysis of Lowell's selected poems and the image of modern women. This study aims to examine women’s roles in literary culture and society. It made her a good defender of poetry. In her poems, she uses the image of a ‘woman’ in “The Sisters,” “The Taxi,” “Patterns,” and “A Lady.” These poems show that her aim was instead to explore her female desires and offer her readers the chance to explore their own. Lowell’s poems express her poetic voice, and her female desires also reveal a claim to citizenship in the art world. Also, Lowell’s poetical and critical output will explore her active role in culture and her vision of women.

     This paper summarizes the analytical study of women’s images in Lowell’s poems. The aim of her poems, which attempt to explain, was to reveal her female wants and allow readers to express their own, as these poems illustrate. In addition to expressing her poetic voice, Lowell’s female aspirations demonstrate her right to citizenship in the creative world. Additionally, Lowell’s analytical and literary work will be used to examine her perspective on women and her active participation in society.
