Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
anne sexton has been misused by various ideologists. she should be read for the same reasons one reads keats, g.m. hopkins or t.s. eliot:
first, she is an artist, not a propagandist or one who published her diary in the form of verse. her works are in the realm of art, they are not psychological jottings or ideological ranting. (her "rage" and her wounds are her private business, just as those of her readers belong neither to the res publica nor the republic of letters).
second, like all true artists she is sincere and her sincere art helps one better understand oneself, one's fellow human beings and modern society: she leads one back to reality.

as eliot in the "wasteland" she is essentially a religious poet, but one who died before the via negativa brought her to her goal.

I decided to write a review after reading the comments of another reviewer here, who stated in essence that Sexton really is For Women Only. On the contrary! Sexton, Plath (and just who is the better poet? Rosemary and I could argue that one for aeons and Still Not Decide), Whitman, Dickinson and Frank O'Hara are constants with me, each for different reasons. Certainly, Sexton's subject matter resonated deeply with me: depression, madness, memory, spirtuality, the body, sex, children. And each time I read her, I deepen in an appreciation for her true gift of stepping beyond the niceties, however unpleasant they may be. But now after reading and rereading her for more than twenty years, I am most amazed by her intertwining of deep, complicated emotion with incredibly rich and suggestive images and craft that is awe-inspiring. Just rip into one of these poems, particularly the early ones, and see just how tightly controlled they are, how perfect the rhyme schemes and rhythms, how just plain *right* and exact her images can be. Then read the "Transformations" poems--based on her beloved Grimms' Fairy Tales--for a deliciously black and wicked sense of humor. Or delve into the later poems for their bluntness ("Gods" is one of my favorites, but 45 Mercy Street and The Awful Rowing are just marvelous and bitter/sweet) and verve. Sexton just inspires me to try to write something that is just a fraction as rich and wonderful as "Some Foreign Letters" or "All My Pretty Ones." For Women Only? I DON'T *THINK* SO.

Anne Sexton was an incredible poet her work is powerful, mesmerizing and thought provoking. Qualities that I definitely look for in great poetry and work that both genders can appreciate. But, part of what makes Sexton's poetry so powerful is the context under which it was written. She wrote deeply p personal poetry about women, about herself. About anger. About female anger. That is part of the reason her voice is so powerful she and Sylvia Plath were two women in the mid 20th century who were allowed to be angry, who reveled in their anger and claimed it. Her poems are not about abstract ideas, about Grecian Urns, but many of them about her personal experience as a woman, a wife a daughter. And people bought this. That was amazing, when you think about the roles of women at that time. Her collected work is interesting not only as great poetry but also as an amazing commentary about the status of women of her generation
