Drawing on extensive work in paper and digital archives, this chapter makes a contribution to current research on women and book history, focusing on the British poet Elizabeth Jennings (1926–2001). A growing number of scholars have paid attention to feminist publishing houses such as Virago Press and women’s bookshops. Although Elizabeth Jennings did not identify with the feminist movement, she had to play by the rules of a male-dominated literary field. This chapter analyses her publishing trajectory and shows the role that publishers played in branding Jennings as an unusual poet in a field dominated by male voices. Like the previous generation of modernist writers, Jennings carved a name for herself by harnessing the power of literary networks—while also emphasising her artistic originality.
