Anne Finch Digital Archives

Anne Finch was an early eighteenth century British poet whose works include the popular poem "The Spleen." In A Room of One's Own, Virginia Woolf wrote that because Finch was largely overlooked by male critics during her lifetime, her talent was "all grown about with weeds and bound with briars" and "had no chance of showing itself for the fine distinguished gift it was." The Anne Finch Digital Archive was created by English scholars Jennifer Keith and Claudia Thomas Kairoff to accompany their book The Works of Anne Finch: A Critical Edition. Here, visitors can explore a handful of Finch's poems, which are accompanied by audio recordings, a short analytical essay, and links to related resources. In addition, the Anne Finch Digital Archives includes a short essay, authored by Keith, on Finch's work and its significance, along with an essay authored by Kairoff, Keith, and Jennifer Bowman about Finch's husband, Heneage Finch. Those interested in further researching Finch will also want to check out the site's extensive Bibliography.
