H. D. (1886-1961)
In a career that spanned five decades, H.D. (Hilda Doolittle, 1886-1961) was given many labels: Imagist, feminist, mythologist, and mystic. Her abiding concern, though, was to explore and represent her personal experience as a poet and a woman. In addition to poetry, she published novels, short stories, and two epic poems on war: Trilogy and Helen in Egypt.
