  Westminster Memorials – Volume 2 – An introduction.  Westminster Abbey has seen much during its long, rich history; the coronations of Kings and Queens, the burials of Prime ministers. However it is also a church that remembers the men and women of the arts.  Dedicated writers and poets who spoke so eloquently that the Nation wished to remember them with plaques upon its walls so that all who travelled here could remember too.  Their works are worth remembering and here, in these volumes, their wise words speak too and for us all.  In Volume 2 we collect together John Clare to DH Lawrence.

  The third of our #WomenVote100 Anthologies:a showcase for poets Arachne has previously published in anthologies, giving an opportunity to explore their writing in greater depth.
  
  These are poems made of myth and family, origins and anger, journeys and home: witty, clever, beautiful and sometimes harsh.
  
  Whilst not directly reflecting on the experience of women fighting for the vote, the concerns of
  
  women are foremost and are passionately addressed.
  
  My own sex, I hope, will excuse me,
  
  if I treat them like rational creatures,
  
  instead of flattering their fascinating
  
  graces, as if they were in perpetual
  
  childhood, unable to stand alone.
  
  From Vindication by Anne Macaulay, a found poem based on the work of Mary Wollstonecraft.
