Book Synopsis
The Jesuit poet Gerard Manley Hopkins was a practitioner of strict asceticism, and his commentators have often approved or disapproved of his rigorous self-discipline. This study uses Lacanian theories of sublimation and courtly love to reconfigure this rift in the field of Hopkins criticism.
