Part 2, Poem Analysis "Crusoe in England" by Elizabeth Bishop,

Elizabeth Bishop, (born Feb. 8, 1911 _died Oct. 6, 1979) was an American poet known for her eloquent, wry humored descriptive verse. Her short stories and her poetry first were published in The New Yorker and other magazines.
Where some of her famous contemporaries like Robert Lowell and John Berryman made the details of their private lives an important part of their poetry, Bishop vehemently avoided this practice. In contrast to this confessional style involving a great deal of disclosure, Bishop's style of writing, though it did include a few subtle details from her personal life, was known for its highly detailed, objective, and formal style and for its reluctance to portray private subject matter She used discretion when writing about details and people from her life. "In the Village", a piece about her early years and her mentally unstable mother, is written as a third-person narrative; the reader would know of the story's autobiographical origins only by being familiar with Bishop's childhood.

Bishop did not see herself as a "lesbian poet" or as a "female poet". she refused to have her work published in all-female poetry anthologies such that other women artists thought she was against the ideology of the feminist movement.
