Feminine Creative Agency
The Muse names a relationship between inspiration and making, not a passive feminine object for a male artist. A Sophianic Bardic theology must also honor women as seers, makers, theologians, poets, musicians, and world-builders. Sappho, Hildegard, Julian of Norwich, Christine de Pizan, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, and later creators reveal feminine imagination speaking in its own authority.
