Description

This scholarly study examines how five influential early modern writers-John Dee, John Donne, Sir Kenelm Digby, Henry and Thomas Vaughan, and Jane Lead-approached and experienced encounters with God through literature. Michael Martin analyses the intersection of poetic, spiritual, and scientific thought during a transformative period in English religious history. The book explores three central themes: the care of souls and diminished spiritual direction in post-Reformation life, the rise of scientific rationality, and the ways these writers inhabited a shared cultural space as both poets and preachers, mystics and scientists. Published by Routledge, this work offers readers deep insight into how literature functioned as a vehicle for religious exploration and philosophical inquiry in early modern England.
