Description

Explore a new reading of a literary giant with The Philosophical Mysticism of Gerard Manley Hopkins. Part of the Nineteenth Century Series from Routledge, this scholarly work looks at the often overlooked mysticism found within Hopkins's poetry. By treating his work as an interior narrative, this book offers a deep look into how his writing functions as a contemplative experience. The text connects Hopkins's poetry to various religious, literary, and visual traditions. It draws links between his writing and influential works such as Augustine's Confessions and seventeenth-century spiritual emblems. A central focus is placed on his masterwork, The Wreck, demonstrating how the poem constructs and conceals a mystical narrative through specific literary methods. Readers will gain a better understanding of how typology and allegory act as hermeneutic tools in this study. This book is an essential resource for those studying literary theory, religious history, or the specific poetic movements of the nineteenth century. It provides a structured approach to understanding the spiritual depth hidden within the poet's corpus.
