Anne Bradstreet (ca.1612-72) Introduction b. c. 1612, Northampton, Northamptonshire?, Eng. d. Sept. 16, 1672, Andover, Massachusetts Bay Colony [U.S.] one of the first poets to write English verse in the American colonies. Long considered primarily of historical interest, she won critical acceptance in the 20th century as a writer of enduring verse, particularly for her sequence of religious poems "Contemplations," written for her family and not published until the mid-19th century. Her father, Thomas Dudley, was chief steward to the Puritan Earl of Lincoln, and she grew up in cultured circumstances. She married Simon Bradstreet, another prot?g? of the earl's, when she was 16, and two years later she, her husband, and her parents sailed with other Puritans to settle on Massachusetts Bay. She wrote her poems while rearing eight children, functioning as a hostess, and performing other domestic duties. The Bradstreets moved frequently in the Massachusetts colony, first to Cambridge, then to Ipswich, and then to Andover, which became their permanent home. Bradstreet's brother-in-law, without her knowledge, took her

Bradstreet, Anne (1612?-1672), poet In Her Own Words She wrote her poems while rearing eight children, functioning as a hostess, and performing other domestic duties. The Bradstreets moved frequently in the Massachusetts colony, first to Cambridge, then to Ipswich, and then to Andover, which became their permanent home. Bradstreet's brother-in-law, without her knowledge, took her poems to England, where they were published as The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America (1650). Bradstreet died on September 16, 1672, in Andover, Massachusetts Bay Colony. The first American edition of The Tenth Muse was published posthumously in revised and expanded form as Several Poems Compiled with Great Variety of Wit and Learning Most of the poems in the first edition are long and rather dully imitative works based on the standard poetic conventions of the time, but the last two poems"Of the vanity of all worldly creatures" and "David's Lamentation for Saul and Jonathan"are individual and genuine in their recapitulation of her own feelings. Her later poems, written for her family, show her spiritual growth as she came fully to accept the Puritan creed. She also wrote more personal poems of considerable beauty, treating in them such subjects as her thoughts before childbirth and her response to the death of a grandchild. These shorter poems benefit from their lack of imitation and didacticism. Her prose works include "Meditations," a collection of succinct and pithy aphorisms. A scholarly edition of her work was edited by John Harvard Ellis in 1867. In 1956 the poet John Berryman paid tribute to her in

Fire and Ice: Puritan and Reformed Writings Table of Contents Fast Index Site Map Index to the Poetry of Anne Bradstreet "A frontier is no friendly place for literary creation; yet within a year after landing with John Winthrop in Massachusetts, America's first English poet was writing, and the fruits of her pen from the next forty odd years remain with us today," according to Jeannine Hensley, the editor of her Works. Hensely goes on to say, "she was not a great poet, but her poetry has endured." It has endured because of the personal intensity and poignancy of her writings, borne out of hard experience and faith. Anne Bradstreet was born in 1612 to Thomas Dudley and raised in a prosperous, educated home. After marrying Simon Bradstreet, she sailed to New England on the Arbella , exchanging a life of relative comfort and culture for the wilderness of Cambridge. It would appear that she was converted in the midst of her new hardships of building a home, storing food, enduring sickness, and raising eight children. Her poetry is a combination of Sixteenth Century convention, her new-found faith, and her struggle for the survival of her family. She went to be with the Lord in 1672. These poems are taken from the Works of Anne Bradstreet edited by Jeannine Hensley and published by the Harvard University Press. I selected the poems which speak most particularly of the Puritan experience, however

Biographical information for Anne Bradstreet. Anne Bradstreet The Prologue To sing of wars, of captains, and of kings, Of cities founded, commonwealth begun, For my mean pen are too superior things: Or how they all, or each their dates have run Let poets and historians set these forth, My obscure lines shall not so dim their worth. But when my wond'ring eyes and envious heart Great Bartas sugared lines do but read o'er, Fool I do grudge the Muses did not part "Twixt him and me that overfluent store; A Bartas can do what a Bartas will But simple I according to my skill. From schoolboy's tongue no rhetoric we expect, Nor yet a sweet consort from broken strings, Nor perfect beauty where's a main defect; My foolish, broken, blemished Muse so sings, And this to mend, alas, no art is able, "Cause nature made it so irreparable. Nor can I, like that fluent sweet tongued Greek Who lisped at first, in future times speak plain. By art he gladly found what he did seek, A full requital of his striving pain. Art can do much, but this maxim's most sure:

There Bradstreet and her husband raised eight children, and she became one of the first poets to write English verse in the American colonies. It was during this time that Bradstreet penned many of the poems that would be taken to England by her brother-in-law, purportedly without her knowledge, and published in 1650 under the title The Tenth Muse, Lately Sprung Up in America Tenth Muse was the only collection of Bradstreet's poetry to appear during her lifetime.
