In at least 100 words, explain the importance of bradstreet, including her confirmation of her belief in the afterlife in her poetry.

Anne Bradstreet was a prominent New England poet, and the first writer on the colonies to be published. This makes her an important figure both in terms of American authors as in terms of female authors. Moreover, she is also significant as a Puritan author.

Bradstreet's poetry is extremely personal. She discusses her duties as a mother and as a wife at length. However, her approach is extremely revolutionary. She talks about the sensual love that she has for her husband, a topic that was not considered appropriate for a woman at that time. She also talks about her Puritan faith. She believes in God, and she considers herself a religious woman, while still doubting some elements of the dogma that surrounds Christianity.
