Wheatìey s
Poetics of Liberation
is a groundbreaking scholarly study
of one of America s most important
and most controversial writers. Wheatley
(175 3-1784)
was the first African Ameri¬
can to publish a book on any subject in the
United States, and America s second woman
to do so. There is probably no other American
writer who has produced such critical con¬
troversy as Phillis Wheatley.
In this new volume, John C. Shields
—
one of the foremost scholars of Wheatley
demonstrates that much of the negative
О
response to her writings has been based on
false assumptions and myths about her and her
work. Much of this criticism began more than
a century ago and has been passed on without
dissent by generations of readers. Here, Shields
sets a course for Wheatley scholars that will
redefine the direction of future writing
about her.
Shields begins this volume with an
incisive analysis of more than two hundred
years of complicated and often misinformed
scholarship and commentary about Wheatley.
In following chapters, he explores Wheatley s
background and the cultural context in
which she wrote.
Shields provides new and subtle readings
for a great many of her poems. He shows that
Wheatley s writing was deeply imbedded in
several literary traditions, demonstrating diat
her work is the result of an African inheri¬
tance, a complex relationship with a Congre-
gationalist religious heritage, and an intense
involvement with classical literature. Read
closely, Wheatley s works show she deserves
