The Women of Ben Jonson's Poetry: Female Representations in the Non-Dramatic Verse
The Women of Ben Jonson's Poetry Female Representations in the NonDramatic Verse Author:Barbara Smith This work looks at Jonson's treatment of women in his verse rather than in his plays. Previous critics have argued that Jonson was misogynistic, but this book provides evidence to the contrary, placing his depiction of women firmly within their historic/societal context.
