Description

The Philosophical Mysticism of Gerard Manley Hopkins offers a fresh scholarly examination of the poet's overlooked mystical traditions and interior narratives. This study reinterprets Hopkins's masterwork through religious, literary and visual traditions spanning from Augustine's Confessions to seventeenth-century spiritual emblems. The author employs typology and allegory as hermeneutic tools to reveal how the Wreck deliberately constructs and conceals contemplative meaning within Hopkins's verse. Part of Routledge's Nineteenth Century Series, this academic work explores the intersection of philosophy and spirituality in Hopkins's poetry, providing literary scholars and students with critical insights into how Hopkins engaged with mystical discourse and spiritual practices. The book demonstrates the complex relationship between Hopkins's religious convictions and his poetic expression, establishing mysticism as a central rather than peripheral element in understanding his literary legacy.

Part of the Nineteenth Century Series by Routledge, providing academic rigour for literary theory and criticism study.
