Reviving/Revising “Lycidas”: Virginia Woolf’s Elegy to Unborn Poets in A Room of One’s Own by Marie Laniel

“…The epitome of late Renaissance pastoral elegy, “Lycidas” haunts many a Modernist poem or novel, from The Waste Land to Ulysses, as a contested subtext, the expression of a poetics of grief that could no longer hold after the First World War, and yet whose grip on the Modernist imagination remained strong. A Room of One’s Own is no exception: Woolf’s allusion to Milton’s poem in the liminal section of her essay, when she introduces the issue of women’s denied access to education, unfulfilled aspirations and unexpressed talent, is all but gratuitous. …”
