Poetry
"Erinna"
- prefiguring Aurora Leigh with a woman's voice contemplating what it means to be an artist, between Corinne and Aurora
- key stanza 53-77
"Infanticide in Madagascar"
- another infanticide poem, like Hemans' Casabianca
- much more angry, skeptical and politically engaged than "Erinna"
