Abstract
Summary In this article I will attempt to provide a theoretical model for the feminist study of South African women's poetry. I argue for the use of a socio‐historical and contextual approach, one that accepts the “presence” of women as poets and acknowledges their voices and their attempts to define themselves as women and as writers. Using the preliminary work of Anglo‐American theorists as a point of reference, I attempt to justify the validity of my model of reading as a means of analysing the poetry written by women in this country.
