Type `English Poems post - Industrial Revolution...Feminist` into a web-search,
then select those closest to the themes covered in your classes.. and improve upon them if possible. Good Luck too. Ads |

Christina Rossetti commented on all these: I'd suggest looking at Goblin Market (it's a religious allegory, but aside from this the goblins are metaphorical of industry - it's demonised, Rossetti was heavily against the industrial revolution - and Laura and Lizzie play the roles of both the traditional Victorian woman and the emerging New Woman).
