Apropos of nothing . . .

The Oxford Book of Irish Verse (published in 1958) featured 18 female poets.

The New Oxford Book of Irish Verse (published in 1986) featured 1 female poet . . . who wrote in Irish . . . translated by a man.

Um, yeah.   There's a reason I'm interested in Feminist criticism.
