玛丽·锡德尼,彭布罗克伯爵夫人,是英国第一个赢得广泛赞誉的女作家。她是菲利普·锡德尼的妹妹,是她在哥哥去世后不遗余力地推崇和宣扬使她的哥哥成为了骑士时代的传奇人物(兼优秀作家)。她和哥哥锡德尼共同创作的《锡德尼诗篇》被约翰·戴维斯爵士称作“艺术和文雅之作”(Hannay 1990:193),成为英语敬献诗的典范,影响了后来的诸如约翰·邓恩、乔治·赫伯、约翰·弥尔顿等的诗歌创作。玛丽·锡德尼是英国历史上第一个出版戏剧的女性,也是最早在戏剧中使用无韵诗的作家之一。通过文学翻译,玛丽·锡德尼引进了欧洲大陆的悲剧创作模式,为莎士比亚的一些戏剧铺平了道路。她集诗人、翻译家和赞助人于一身,被威廉·布朗称为“一切诗章之源”。 Mary Sidney, Countess Pembroke, was the first woman to win widespread acclaim in Britain. She is the sister of Philip Sidney, who spared her efforts to promote and promote her brother as a knight-era legendary writer (and good writer) after her brother’s death. The Sidney Psalm, co-authored with her brother Sidney, is described by Sir John Davis as “Art and Elegance” (Hannay 1990: 193) and serves as a model for English poetry, affecting later Such as John Dunn, George Herbert, John Milton and other poetry. Mary Sidney was the first woman to publish drama in British history and one of the earliest writers to use non-rhyme poetry in drama. Through literary translation, Mary Sidney introduced the tragedy creation mode in continental Europe, paving the way for some Shakespeare plays. She is a poet, translator and patron in one and is described by William Brown as “the source of all poems.”
