Issues and themes
The first black American to publish a book of poetry, Phillis Wheatley wrote in a style characteristic of the 18th century. Like Alexander Pope and other English writers of the 18th century, she favored highly stylized poetry , characterized by lofty subject matter, elevated diction, classical allusions, and heroic couplets. Wheatley also is known for her religious verse , including poems such as "Thoughts on the Works of Providence" and "To S.M., a Young African Painter, on Seeing His Works."
Work
"On Being Brought from Africa to America"
  • Publication: 1773
  • How does Wheatley describe her forced migration to America? Do you think other slaves shared her feelings? Why or why not?

44. Volume A: American Literature To 1820
Phillis Wheatley (c. 17531784). Born in Africa, probably in present-daySenegal or Gambia, Phillis Wheatley was brought to Boston
http://www.wwnorton.com/naal/vol_A/bio/wheatley.htm
Phillis Wheatley (c. 1753-1784) Born in Africa, probably in present-day Senegal or Gambia, Phillis Wheatley was brought to Boston when she was around eight years old to be a companion for Susannah Wheatley, the wife of a wealthy tailor. Mrs. Wheatley, part of an enlightened group of Boston Christians who believed that slavery could not be tolerated in Christian households, recognized Phillis's intelligence and saw that she was taught to read and write; Phillis studied the Bible, read Latin poets, and was influenced by Milton, Pope, and Gray. She became well known for her poem eulogizing the Reverend George Whitfield, and when she was nineteen or twenty she traveled to England, accompanied by the Wheatleys' son, with a manuscript of her work. Her Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral (1773) inaugurated the black American literary tradition. A group of eighteen prominent citizens of Boston, including the state governor and John Hancock, asserted that Wheatley had composed the poems, although "under the Disadvantage of serving as a Slave in a Family in this Town." A second volume was proposed but never published, and most of the poems and letters have been lost.

TO THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE, IN NEW-ENGLAND. by Phillis Wheatley (1753-1784) Phillis Wheatley was a slave brought from Africa in 1761. She quickly learned English, and in 1772, John Wheatley, her master, submitted a book of her poetry for publication. - EV WHILE an intrinsic ardor prompts to write,
The muses promise to assist my pen;
'Twas not long since I left my native shore
The land of errors, and Egyptain gloom:
Father of mercy, 'twas thy gracious hand
Brought me in safety from those dark abodes.
Students, to you 'tis giv'n to scan the heights Above, to traverse the ethereal space, And mark the systems of revolving worlds. Still more, ye sons of science ye receive The blissful news by messengers from heav'n, How Jesus' blood for your redemption flows. See him with hands out-stretcht upon the cross; Immense compassion in his bosom glows; He hears revilers, nor resents their scorn:

The Dispensary established its original clinic at this site in 1856. An innovative force in American medical history, the Dispensary was the first in the country to provide its patients with a visiting nurse association, dental clinic, rehabilitative clinic, and well-child services; it introduced the world's earliest food and nutrition clinic in 1918. The Dispensary merged with the Floating Hospital and Pratt Diagnostic Clinic in 1965 to form the New England Medical Center. Established in 1894 by Reverend Rufus Tobey, the Boston Floating Hospital combined the benefits of sea-air with medicine, offering sick children day trips from Boston Harbor.

    A Brief Biography
    by Phillis Wheatley
    Phillis Wheatley was an internationally known American poet of the late 18th century. She was born in West Africa circa 1753, and thus she was only a few years younger than James Madison. Of course, her life was very different. She was kidnapped and enslaved at age seven. Too young to be sold in the West Indies or the southern colonies, she was purchased by John Wheatley, a prominent Boston tailor, in 1761. She was spared the worst of slavery, but the harsh New England climate (harsher then than now) would take its toll.

WHO ARE OUR PHILLIS WHEATLEYS?
Mayer Shevin
Facilitated Communication Institute
Phillis Wheatley (1753-1784) is widely recognized as the first African-American author ever published. The young girl was brought from Africa to Boston as a slave in 1761 at the age of seven, and bought by a tailor, John Wheatley. She received an extensive education within the home of the family that owned her, and began writing poetry at about the age of 13. In his preface to Wheatley's Collected Works, Henry Louis Gates, Jr. writes: Sometime in 1772, a young African girl walked demurely into a room in Boston to undergo an oral examination, the results of which would determine the direction of her life and work. Perhaps she was shocked upon entering the appointed room. For there... sat 18 of Boston's most notable citizens. Among them were... John Hancock, who would later gain fame for his signature on the Declaration of Independence. At the center of this group was His Excellency, Thomas Hutchinson, governor of Massachusetts... Why had this august group been assembled? Why had it seen fit to summon this young African girl, scarcely 18 years old, before it? The group of "the most respectable Characters in

The Women of Colonial Literature
Posted by Tom Kinsella , 3/28/01 at 8:16:08 PM. Ann Bradstreet (1612 - 1672) Ann Bradstreet was born in England, but raised in America as a puritan whose views were reflected in her poetry. She was considered to be the first American poet as well as the most respected woman poet of her time. In 1650 The Tenth Muse, Lately Sprung Up in America was published in England without her notice. A second edition was published with her own corrections and additions titled Several Poems Compiled With Great Variety of Wit and Learning . It would be more than adequate to have a collected volume of her work, though it would be nice to have the first and second editions of The Tenth Muse to compare the changes that were made. It is important for a college library to have a collection of her work since she was an important poet who influenced many writers. We do have one selection of her poems, but it isn't the most recent, nor is it most authoritative. This includes the poet John Berryman who wrote a sonnet sequence dedicated to her. Sarah Kemble Knight (1666 – 1727) Sarah Kemble Knight was an American diarist who wrote about Colonial customs. Born and raised in America, she learned first-hand about the early American experience through being a recorder of public documents and court records, as well as through her other occupations as teacher and businesswoman.
