| dc.description.abstract | In this paper, I utilize an experimental format of incorporating autobiographical narratives of my life as a genderqueer person to segue readers into questions of identity and trans* theory. I then use the tenets of trans* theory to analyze several poems by John Donne, Andrew Marvell, and Richard Crashaw. I expect trans* theory to help shape our collective understanding of gender and selfhood when utilized beyond the reach of this paper and incorporated into the analysis of a multitude of different literary genres. ii | en_US |
