Description

Explore the literary development of two major poets in this study from Routledge. Frances Cruickshank provides a deep look into how George Herbert and John Donne shaped their own distinct poetics. By examining their poems alongside their letters, sermons, and prose treatises, this book offers a comprehensive view of their creative processes. This study examines the connection between religious consciousness and verse. Cruickshank looks at how Donne and Herbert approached the cultural, theological, and aesthetic aspects of writing and reading poetry. The text moves beyond simple analysis to show how these poets viewed their work as a mode of expression not solely determined by social or external factors. Designed for students and scholars of religious arts and literature, this work uses close readings of contemporary poets and theorists to build a complete picture of seventeenth-century verse. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the relationship between faith and poetic form in the works of Herbert and Donne.
