Gendered Persona and Poetic Voice considers the effects on poetic voice of a conventional feminine persona, the abandoned woman, in early Chinese song lyric (ci) poems. The author reads the literary cross-dressing and ventriloquism of these mostly male-authored poems in light of the highly indeterminate Chinese poetic language. This study of persona and poetic voice will benefit scholars of lyric poetry in any language. | Gendered Persona and Poetic Voice by Maija Bell Samei, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
