This article aims to further our understanding of Elizabeth Singer Rowe, an important eighteenth-century writer who is little read today. The Story of Semiramis, an inset narrative in her biblical poem "The History of Joseph" (1736-37), is notable for its interest as an extensively revised representation of important historical character. The narrative intimately linked to the biblical plot of Joseph, and illuminates Rowe's intersts in generic hybridisation and in the religious interpretation of secular history | |
