Judith Wright

By Jennifer Strauss

Judith Wright is one of the most significant and best-loved of Australian twentieth century poets, with a reputation both at home and abroad. In addition, she is a major figure as a literary intellectual actively engaged in some of the most challenging issues facing Australian society--notably environmental protection and land rights for Aborigines. In this study, Jennifer Strauss looks at Wrigt's poetry in the context of her work as activist and as critic. Strauss sees Wright's poetry as a central aspect of her work, showing that is intrinsically connected to Wright's view of what is important in the totality of human life.
