요약 : Nineteenth-century Christianity in England was both united and divided. Though Christian churches held most of the central teachings of Christianity in common, they diverged significantly in polity, theology and liturgy. For the ordinary church-going Christian, denominational divergence emerged most concretely in the public worship service, where religious principle assumed tangible form. My study of religious poetry by Nonconformist Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Anglican Christina Rossetti and Roman Catholic Adelaide Procter explores the relationships between each woman's commitment to a particular liturgical practice and the development of poetic voice. Highlighting this context for religious poetry by Victorian women allows us to attune ourselves to difference rather than resemblance in women's writing, and thus to break the pattern of seeing women's writing as somehow an unified discourse to be set against or compared to men's writing. Though they struggle with some of the same gender issues, these women writers produce work in which religious identity features as importantly as (sometimes more importantly than) gender in the creation of distinctive religious-poetic voices. Liturgical forms and practices, I argue in this study, provide models with which Victorian women poets experiment as they develop their own poetic forms, voices and concerns. For religious women writers in Victorian England, denominational choice has enormous import for their understanding of the woman poet, the religious community, the act of scriptural interpretation, and the cultural weight of religious poetry. This dissertation explores how they turned this recognition to account in their poetic endeavours. When faith and poetry meet, these women demonstrate, an aesthetic emerges that often has value beyond the religious sphere. Women, Worship and Writing explores these aesthetics in the belief that they challenge contemporary Victorianists to revaluate the import of religious discourses and practices as key to women poets' formal and conceptual experiments.
