Abstract

The Great War of 1914-1918 created new models of British citizenship in which women sought a greater stake. British women poets during the Great War wrote in a myriad of voices, expressing competing ideologies of feminism, nationalism, and religion. Demanding recognition for their wartime labour, their sacrifice of sons, their political opinions on the war itself, and their survival in a postwar world, women writers argued implicitly and explicitly for expanded notions of female citizenship in Britain.
