Zusatztext "Close reading of Hopkins' never less than challenging verse is pursued in this book with theological rigour and learning in a manner that will ensure that it will become a central resource in scholarship on the finest of late nineteenth English poets... a work of fine scholarship! theologically learned and poetically sensitive! and yet at the same time spiritually acute and attentive to the delicate! complex world of Hopkins and his writings. This is a book to be treasured and pondered upon." -- Professor David Jasper!
