Noted for its intensity, it is a tribute to colonial poet Anne Bradstreet that also reveals much about the author. The poem examines the tension between Bradstreets personal life and her artistic life, concluding in a spirit of fatalism. It shows throughout a loving and intimate grasp of the details of American history. The work primarily examines creative repression, religious apostasy, and the temptation to adultery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berryman, John","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46055572046082,"sku":"87796.0","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/4412\/1602\/files\/holder_6_164e6179-a1f1-42ed-b303-1728fe5e1968.jpg?v=1744073364","url":"https:\/\/bibliope.com\/products\/homage-to-mistress-bradstreet-a-poem-with-pictures-by-ben-shahn","provider":"Bibliope","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
