Abstract
Who was/is the poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning? The intention of this performance art piece is well put by its creator: "The becoming her is as much her as the being her. And all that is her is not only her but me, and you. She may not be the her alive from 1806 till 1861. That her is deadÑand the form we have given her in our culture is a worse death. It is hoped this becoming will replace that death we have given her."
