Description for Feminine Engendered Faith
Hardback. The author proposes that devotion to the Virgin Mary is an important poetic link between Donne and Crashaw in a crucial period of the English Reformation between 1595 and 1645. She traces evidence of this devotion in a wide range of poems which they wrote to or about women. Num Pages: 317 pages, biography. BIC Classification: 2AB; 3JB; 3JD; DSBD; DSC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 216 x 140 x 24. Weight in Grams: 556.
This book proposes the poetic link between Donne and Crashaw during the English Reformation. In the first half of this work, Donne's Songs and Sonets, Verse Letters, religious works and Anniversaries are discussed as they reflect increasingly covert reverence for a holy mother figure. In the second half, Crashaw's juvenile poems and epigrams, verse in honour of the Virgin and Child, and mature contemplative verse are seen to express mystical homage to Mary and growing admiration for feminine powers of faith.
