Elevating Our Voices: An Exploration And Demonstration Of Modern Feminist Poetry, Kelly Knutelski
Elevating Our Voices: An Exploration And Demonstration Of Modern Feminist Poetry, Kelly Knutelski
Honors Theses
This paper is formatted with several pages of background information on two poets, Rupi Kaur and Kim Addonizio, who have greatly contributed to modern feminist poetry within the past decade or two. This background will serve as a supportive feature for my portfolio, the main goal of this experience. The themes of Addonizio and Kaur and their poetic techniques inspire my collection of unique poetry. These poems represent the ups and many downs already lived by a twenty-two-year-old woman just trying to find her place in this beautiful, yet dark and twisted world.
