‘As one of the first modern women poets to write openly about love between women, Vivien was naturally concerned about how posterity would treat her work, especially when she began seeing a definite bias against her work then. A 1908 anthology of French poetry, for example, contained none of Vivien’s poems and, according to Paul Lorenz, her works were also banned from the afternoon poetry readings presented by the actors of the Comédie française.’
