The composition of a poetry collection responding to the Demeter-Persephone mythos used in Glück, Ostriker, and Dove's poetry. The collection will respond to the absence of the motherhood theme in the poetry of contemporary American women writers, and the prominence of mythic motherhood within this minimal theme. Each poem will aim to explore, respond to, and build upon the representations of maternal mythic figures in the specific source poem/s it corresponds with, using the voice of a mythic daughter.
