Description: The thesis is centered in a line from Moore's poem, "Armor's undermining modesty." Moore sees herself humorously as a magician who uses her conjuries to express a truth beyond reason. It is Erickson's contention that Moore's sense of magic is inextricably bound up in her own uniquely feminine epistemology, the tendency to place great value on intuition, and to find one's own voice among collections of many voices.
