Abstract:

John Donne is one of the greatest of English religious poets, and the poets of the 17th century on whom his influence was most deep and lasting than all religious poets. As Joan Bennett tells us this is so because his temperament was essentially religious. A man of religious temperament is constantly aware, constantly perceiving the underlying unity, the fundamental oneness of all phenomena, and the perception of such a relationship, such an inherent principle of unity, is revealed even by the imagery of the earliest poetry of Donne. No doubt Donne's religious poetry belongs to the later part

Abstract:

AbstractThough historians of religion have demonstrated that the theological commitments of early modern English people were labile and complex, there was nonetheless a prevailing sense in the period that belief posited bodily consequences. This article considers this bodily presence in John Donne’s poetry by exploring the humoral construction of religious identity in his Holy Sonnets. Donne’s conversion provided him with an unusual perspective: not many people were positioned to hold as nuanced a view of religious ideology. It is surprising, then, that when Donne considers his conversion — wh

Abstract:

Abstract In his Holy Sonnets, the English Renaissance poet and divine John Donne (1572–1631) gives voice to powerful emotional outbursts. Previous critics have mostly been concerned with the religious context and theological positions of the sonnets. This study rather attempts to isolate the psychological context of the poems by relating them to the early modern discourse on the passions. In order to grasp the pathos of Donne's Holy Sonnets, we need to consider the advice on how to handle violent emotion in such treatises as Thomas Wright's The Passions of the Minde in Generall (1604) and Edwa

Abstract:

Mark Jarman’s Unholy Sonnets work in dichotomies, drawing on both Renaissance and Modern poetics; biblical texts with complex approaches to faith, especially the books of Job and Ecclesiastes; strict form and formal experimentation. A close examination of the contradictory impulses in Jarman’s work illustrates his unique connection to John Donne, whose Holy Sonnets engage with a silent God. Jarman extends this tradition into modernity, identifying, through subtle wordplay, allusion, and religious tradition, the deficiencies of human language and the difficult but worthwhile endeavor of searchi

Abstract:

In his deceptively simple, but really extremely rich, sonnet, “Why are wee by all Creatures waited on?”, John Donne uses all the tools of prosody available to him and plays with the English and Italian forms of the sonnet to give a rich meditation on the order of creation, the history of salvation, and the relationship of nature and grace. He begins with what seems an irenic scholastic discussion, asking why humans are able to subjugate elements and animals which are purer and stronger than they. In the third quatrain, however, he shifts to a deep moral plaint. At the same time, he interweaves

Abstract:

In her admirable study of autobiography, Janet Varner Gunn argued that the religious significance of the form “lies not in its literary function but in its anthropology,” that is, in its role in articulating and creating human experience. She also stated that much literary discussion of autobiography serves to conceal its “strangeness” and “unruly behavior.”

Abstract:

This is a review of the book on the barocco aesthetics of John Donne. The author analyses primarily the «Anniversaries», and other elegies and sonnets to a lesser extent. Spiritual legacy of John Donne sees almost no analysis. H. Grady's main method is close reading. and in his examination of John Donne's writings he has been inspired by W. Benjamin's «Ursprung des deutschen Trauerspiels» (1928).

Ces deux fonctions correspondent chacune à une pratique particulière de la sainte agonie: l’agonie canonique, relevant du sacrement administré par les prêtres de l’Ordre pour la Visite des Malades, et l’ars moriendi laïque.
