Publisher's Synopsis
The book titled ""The Vision of Christ in the Poets"" is a collection of selected studies that explore the Christian faith as interpreted by some of the most renowned poets in English literature. Written by Charles M. Stuart, the book delves into the works of Milton, Wordsworth, the Brownings, Tennyson, Whittier, Longfellow, and Lowell, examining the ways in which each poet perceived and conveyed the figure of Christ in their writings.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular poet and their works. Stuart provides insightful analyses of the religious themes, imagery, and symbolism present in each writer's poetry, as well as their personal beliefs and attitudes towards Christianity.Through these studies, Stuart aims to demonstrate how the poets' visions of Christ reflect their own spiritual journeys and the cultural and historical contexts in which they lived. He also explores the ways in which their interpretations of Christ have influenced Christian theology and shaped the understanding of the figure of Christ in modern times.Overall, ""The Vision of Christ in the Poets"" is a thought-provoking and informative book that will appeal to anyone interested in the intersection of literature and religion, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
