Everyman Hopkins Poems And Prose
The greatest English religious poet of the nineteenth century, Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-89) was a Jesuit priest and literary scholar whose life ended prematurely after his exhausting pastoral work among the slums of Liverpool and Dublin. His poems are dazzling celebrations of God's endless creative power couched in a uniquely expressive poetic diction, and all his mature poetry is her reprinted, together with illuminating fragments from journals, letters, sermons and lectures in which he expounds his literary and religious outlook.

Editorial Renacimiento Poemas Poesa Universal Spanish Edition
Gerard Manley Hopkins (Essex, 1844-1889) entronca, junto con Eliot, la lírica inglesa contemporánea con la tradición de los poetas metafísicos. Su permanente mérito literario tiene tres aspectos. Es un poderoso y profundo poeta religioso, uno de los más vivaces poetas de la naturaleza y posee un lenguaje raramente novedoso y original. La crítica inglesa ha dedicado numerosos trabajos a su obra y es el poeta inglés más estudiado junto a Shakespeare. Hopkins, como pocos, ha conducido el mundo en una fina danza hacia su propio excéntrico sonido de flauta. José Julio Cabanillas (Granada, 1958) es autor de los libros de versos Las canciones del alba, Palabras de demora y En lugar del mundo, y de la novela Benzelá.

Discover How Hopkins's Spiritual Life and Vision Can Enlighten Your Own "Poetry and art and music seize upon the human experience in ways that reveal new possibilities of intimacy with the Divine. In the way they reach out and grab us by the heart at unexpected times, they reaffirm that the Holy will meet us when it chooses.…" —from the Preface by Rev. Thomas Ryan, CSP Gerard Manley Hopkins, Christian mystical poet, is beloved for his use of fresh language and startling metaphors to describe the world around him. Beneath the surface of this lovely verse lies a searching soul, wrestling with and yearning for God. Hopkins writes from a Christian background, and yet his themes speak to people of all faiths who seek a deeper understanding of the presence of God in all of life. This beautiful sampling of Hopkins's poetry offers a glimpse into his unique spiritual vision that continues to inspire readers throughout the world. The poems unite his two devotions, presenting mystical images of Christ in the natural world, which serve as a window through which you might also begin to see the Divine Presence in the world around you.
