Wasn’t it Judith Shakespeare’s brother who wrote that there is nothing new under the sun? But perhaps Ramie Targoff cites Margaret Ezell’s ‘The Myth of Juiith Shakespeare: Creating the Canon of Women’s Literature’ (New Literary History 21 (Spring 1990): 579-92…

Thanks for sharing the NYT review, Vara. Makes you wonder if Tina Brown has actually read AROO since the fate of all the women Targoff writes about in her book pretty vividly illustrate the issues Woolf so insightfully discusses. Clearly she doesn't know about 'The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia' either.

Greetings,

Tina Brown's review of Ramie Targoff's Shakespeare's Sisters begins with this paragraph: "Judith Shakespeare, Virginia Woolf?s imaginary sister of the Bard, was for years the accepted portrait of the nonexistent writer of Renaissance England. In ?A Room of One?s Own,? her seminal feminist essay, Woolf concluded that any glimmer of female creativity in Shakespeare?s time would have been expunged by a pinched life as a breeding machine of children who so often died, disallowed opinions of her own. Had any woman survived these conditions, wrote Woolf, 'whatever she had written would have been twisted and deformed, issued from a strained and morbid imagination.'?

The subsequent paragraph is articulated as follows: "Wrong, says the Renaissance scholar Ramie Targoff in ?Shakespeare?s Sisters,? her fascinating excavation of four intellectual powerhouse women of the 16th and early 17th centuries. Woolf had just not dug deep enough to find Mary Sidney?s sublime translations, Aemilia Lanyer?s groundbreaking poems or Elizabeth Cary?s subversive dramas. She dismissed the fourth, the great diarist Anne Clifford, as ?trivial,? says Targoff ? a view not shared by Anne?s distant relative Vita Sackville-West when she discovered and lovingly edited the diaries in 1923."
