| Bijns, Anna |
(ä´nä b ns) (KEY) , 1494?–1575?, Flemish poet of Antwerp. Her three volumes (1528, 1548, 1567) of lyric verse place her among the foremost Dutch poets of her age. She excelled in robust satires passionately inveighing against the social evils of the day and deploring the Reformation. Bijns’s religious poetry is sincere and moving. |
