Statements
Periodicals etc.: major contributor to Dunton's Athenian Mercury; contributed to Tonson's Miscellany; Lintot's Poems on Several Occasions; “A collection of divine hymns and poems; on several occasions: by the E. of Roscommon, Mr. Dryden, Mr. Dennis, ; Mr. Norris, Mrs. Kath. Phillips, Philomela, and others. Most of them ; never before Printed.” (note how “Philomela” is treated as a proper name just like “Mr. Dryden” and “Mr. Norris”
Overall: Rowe received a strong domestic education, and she began contributing verse to miscellanies and pious collections in her late teens. She published very widely in periodicals, and had a range of friendships with figures of the first importance (Prior, Watts). Her works, esp. Friendship in Death, were reprinted many many times in the 18 and 19c. A paradigmatic example of the pious gentlewoman poet, not shy of publication but independently secure financially.
