Hardback. Demonstrates the profound influence of Ramon Lull (c. 1232-1316) upon Donne. The author shows how Donne refashioned Lull's abstract version of Mary and used this "Mary" to include Muslims and Jews in the church universal. This study will appeal to new historicists and those interested in alchemy, emblems, or theology. Num Pages: 259 pages, Illustrations, facsims. BIC Classification: 2AB; DSBD; DSC.

Such poetry relies less on narrative and more on the compulsion of words themselves. Translator(s): Valis, Noel Maureen. Num Pages: 123 pages, port. BIC Classification: 2ADS; DSBH; DSC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 236 x 157 x 18. Weight in Grams: 363.
